I met one of the owners here in Jacksonville Florida about 10 Years ago.Told me, he and a buddy were building sandals and I should check them out. I fell in love with the classic LT. Purchased other styles,but nothing satisfied like the LT. My last purchase was at least 2 years ago and unfortunately one of the sandals blew out of my boat while traveling down the highway. I did not notice till I arrived home with only one sandal. I still had original package they were shipped in, so I sent back the one sandal along with a check in the amount of 40.00 dollars for one matching sandal. I have not received any response. For the past year I have wanted to order another pair but they are not available. I think the classic LT is the best sandal ever made!

I have myriad flat footwear from several brands and the Classic LT remains my number one. No other sandal can match its comfort, light weight, durability, and fit. The straps are funky @ 1st sight, but are simple to dial-in, requiring little readjustment. Zero blisters, even on a 15Km day. Due to lack of stock, I also purchased the Cairns EVO to give them a try, but they do not enjoy the same flexibility nor lightness of the Classic LT. A 5Km walk in them yielded blisters and the Velco straps weirdly fuzzied out soon after purchase. I used the buckle to make adjustments per Bedrock recommendation, so the Velcro was left alone. I mostly wear shorts, so I don't get it. Maybe others have better luck with them.

As for customer service, Colin is the best! He exemplifies a dedication to customer loyalty that all companies should aspire to.

Beware to check sizing prior to ordering...I've worn a size 10 for decades and all of my footwear is size 10, except for Bedrock...the only size 11s I have ever purchased. YMMV.

Pic One: 1st pair of Classic LT: after ~4,978 Km/~2 years, and still kicking.

(Too small @ size 10 & toes were slightly exposed...but I wore them anyway.)

Pic Two: Weird fuzz on Cairns EVO strap: <~1,000Km

The first pair I owned had a textured and grippy insole stitched to the foot bed which the new version lacks. Instead they've left the foot bed as bare rubber that gets gunky from sweat, dead skin, natural oils, and dirt. Due the their ability to hang onto that foot crud so well, they become extremely slippery when they first get wet. So while the outsole still provides good slip resistance, your foot will slip around in the sandal and the paracord between your toes digs in (especially painful walking downhill) until you've walked far enough, and they've become wet enough to wash the gunk off the foot bed. The removal of the insole layer on the foot bed also removed the laminar reinforcement it provided, resulting in the new version being too flexible. This causes them to constantly fold under your foot if you are walking in water, grass, sand, other loose ground where the toe may dig in (or heel if you are back stepping), despite how tightly adjusted the straps are. They also removed the rubber lining on the straps and switched to a softer material compounding the instability issue. Aside from that, the new version has been holding up well and I've managed to avoid face-panting in them so far.

In the attached photos, the old version is on the left, new on right. You'll notice that the old version has a memory to it and is curled upward as you would want it, while the new version lays flat; the strap on the new version is also considerably thinner material. The end…

This is my second time purchasing the classic sandal, the first was in 2018 and now after finally wearing them into the ground, I’m coming back for my second pair. They have and continue to be my daily wear sandals, and I love the subtle design (I don’t really need to look like I’m about to go climb a waterfall when I’m just walking around the city, and these go with all styles of clothing).

It seems there have been improvements since I got my first pair too — these stay on better, the soles flex more to keep up with my movements, and they seem like they’ll fray in fewer places overtime. Also a big one, not sure if that was just my old pair but the rubbery bits that hold the straps in place no longer stain my feet black like the old ones used to do. Huge upgrade!

They are of course very flat and if you need arch support these are not for you. But for something very minimal you can wear all day every day, and won’t turn to mush at the first contact with a raindrop, these are your best friends :)

These shoes are super solid and trusty and can handle some real deal terrain, they feel great. I am super keen about running all over in these. Very cruisey almost like a slipper or thong or flip flop, but sporty for changes in speed and incline. Great for wandering new paths or coasting about. So versatile. If you enjoy health then I recommend these in lieu of hiking boots or running shoes. Total Gem!
