Description
As barefoot as it gets. The San-Dal is a minimal, natural leather sandal handmade by the Ju'/hoansi San people of the Kalahari Desert. Designed for strong feet and skilful movement, they sustained the San people for thousands of years. Working in collaboration with Future Footwear Foundation and guided by the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, we have established a long-term partnership with the Ju'/hoansi San people, to support the regeneration of a lost craft and preserve ancient (barefoot) wisdom.

Care

Cleaning

Brush off mud and clean with a damp cloth

Drying

Dry at room tempreture. Keep out of direct sunlight and avoid putting on a radiator.

Aftercare

We recommend using Renapur Leather Balsam to nourish the leather, restore the colour and finish and help prevent your footwear from drying out and cracking. It will also clean surface dirt from drying out and cracking. It will also clean surface dirt from your footwear and help to waterproof them. It's ideal to treat new footwear as it helps relax the new leather breaking in easier.

End of life

Once you can’t repair or don't need them anymore, send us your old Vivos and we’ll make they sure they’re given a second life, or if they’re really well-loved, we'll store them until we launch our recycling solution.

Built to sustain barefoot wisdom

The San-Dal is based on original Namibian hunting sandals made by the Ju'/hoansi San people. But traditional techniques (and barefoot wisdom) are dying out. Working with the Future Footwear Foundation, the social enterprise aims to regenerate indigenous craft and community. Handmade from eland and gnu leather by local craftspeople, all proceeds go towards sustaining the project long term.
