Huaraches are a simple, comfortable, back to the basics type of sandal. In this age of air pumped inserts, fancy outsoles, and flashy brands, huaraches are a call back to a simpler time.

It’s amazing how a simple design can be a comfortable and practical piece of footwear. Take these Organic Hemp Vegan Sandals from DownBound for example. No sweatshops. And the shaft-like structure of the hemp fibre allows the shoes to wick moisture right off the foot and dry quickly.

Just in time for summer.
