Return Policy

I want you to get a great fit with your sandals and minimalist sandals sometimes require a little time and effort to get your perfect fit. Try making adjustments to the strap tension and placement to find a good fit for you. If you’re still not getting the right fit, shoot me an email and I’m happy to give you some pointers I’ve picked up over the years of wearing my sandals and working with other folks like you. Spend some time wearing your sandals indoors to determine if they will work for you.
