Numa Laces provide extra length to accommodate all foot sizes. Please trim excess material after sizing the sandals to your feet.
*All Numa Sandals are non-returnable/non-exchangeable after laces have been trimmed*
Introducing the Numa Sport! A new value lineup featuring an ultra-comfortable sole, the sport models streamline our most popular designs into new and exciting sandals. Take the comfort and flexibility of the Numa sandals to new heights with the Numa Sport!
The Sport models feature an all-new Walkbase® 10mm sole with a naked top footbed. Made from a custom EVA material, the Walkbase soles are ultralight while still providing significant abrasion and puncture protection. The Sport soles feature a naked top or no footbed added to the sole material to decrease weight. Easily break in the new sandals and take them to extreme levels, knowing that your soles can hold up to anything thrown at them.
Numa uses a handsfree slip-on lacing system that stretches with your feet as they move. The result is our most comfortable, seamless, and easy-to-use lacing system yet. The secret is our custom ¾” elastic forefoot section. This innovation gives the lacing system the ability to stretch where you need it most: over the arch and middle of the foot, creating a seamless connection between your foot and the sandal. Added benefits of this system include a self-adjusting toe plug buckle and forefoot strap that is custom-cut. This allows all our Numa Sandals to rival flip-flops in terms of comfort without sacrificing convenience. This system uses our innovative and flexible heel posts to keep the heel strap in an optimal position, and these laces are made using Ultrasuede for the highest level of comfort available. Comfort, connection, and convenience are waiting for you with the Numa lacing system!
Just because you wore a hole in your sandals, it doesn’t mean you have to throw them away! Our modular approach to sandal-making means that worn out parts can be replaced with a pair of pliers at home. Why throw away what you can repair? Visit our Parts Page to learn more!
Proud to be made in the USA and we wouldn’t have it any other way! All of our sandals are made right here in Santa Cruz, CA by our small team, using primarily US sourced materials along with high quality components from Italy, Germany, and other international partners. Follow us on Instagram and YouTube to get a glimpse of how we do it on a regular basis.
For reference, this is my first barefoot sandal. While it felt quite nice initially, there are two big downsides (for me): a) my feet slip off to the inside while walking or running. As a result, my feet scrape over the inner edge, leaving me with callus near my big toe. b) when I wore it daily during my last vacation, I developed some sort of rash/irritation where the strap meets the sole on the outer side (mostly on one foot). I assume the foot moves slightly and there is a cut in the felt of the sole attachment (production-wise?) which causes irritation. So, unfortunately, I cannot wear it a lot :(

Maybe these are billed as outdoorsy minimalist footwear, but I just needed something around the house that lets my feet breathe and not get dried out. They are great for that too!
Numa's are super comfy and easy to get on and off. My only complaint is that I don't find the lacing as pretty as usual sandal lacing, but I knew that pre-purchase, and it's worth it for me.
