Camp Sandal - PRE-ORDER
The Ultimate Ultralight & Functional Thru-hiking Camp Sandal
Pre-order now for shipping on June 16th!
Ultralight AND ready for real-world use - We designed the camp sandal simple, light, and consumer-repairable while adding in features such as easy adjustment with the prusik hitch so that no knot tying is required, and using webbing across the top of the foot for added comfort. The Camp Sandal uses a Vibram sole for durability and good traction in real-life walking scenarios. This sandal is designed for use around camp and town days but is fully functional for everyday wear and even running in dry conditions. In fact, these mimic the very first pair of sandals Adam built for our family. Elizabeth put enough miles on that first pair that she wore a hole straight through the Vibram sole! That's to say, they are comfortable, practical, and long-lasting even though they are ultralight!
For easy on/off, use the friction hitch to open and close the strap or simply slip the heel strap over your heel. See this video to appreciate the simplicity.

As you may know, UL equipment is amazing for lightening a pack load but can wear out more quickly. Knowing that, we designed the straps to be repairable/replaceable by the user. The knot under the toe plug is generally the first to wear out with this style of strapping. When that happens, you can use the included section of paracord and follow these instructions to repair (Repair Instructions coming soon. We filmed a video but ran out of time before Trail Days to finish editing). Complete re-strap kits will be available as well (soon). If just used around camp, the knot should last quite a long time. When used for more daily wear and trail use, the knot will wear out more quickly. YMMV.
