Geniale Sandale

Barefoot brand from Austria.

Geniale Sandale is a small Vienna brand making handmade, unisex huarache-style sandals with a very thin sole of about 3mm. The sole is recycled rubber, topped with organic leather or a vegan leather, and you lace them with paracord or hemp cord and trim them to fit your own foot. I like that you can ask for extra wide sizes or a different size on each foot when you order.

How Geniale Sandale fits

wide width

I'd go 0.5 to 1 cm longer than your foot, as the maker suggests, since you can trim the sole to shape but can't add length. They're cut generously, and the maker will do extra-wide or different left and right sizes if you ask. Don't cut them until you're sure, as cut pairs can't be returned.
