Introducing the newly updated TrailStar Lacing System!
Get a perfect fit every time with our new tension-based forefoot lacing. Simply adjust the forefoot strap to your feet then cut the excess off the strap. Achieving a custom fit has never been easier with our updated TrailStars Lacing System!
Take on the toughest terrain with the Shamma TrailStars! TrailStars offer a unique “over the foot” lacing system which creates a secure connection between the whole foot and the sandal. The comfort, security and precision control of the TrailStars lacing deliver an un paralleled experience on the trail. TrailStars Maximus feature an 9mm Vibram Newflex sole that flexes to follow the contours of your foot. The TrailStars Maximus is our most minimalist sole with this lacing system. TrailStars Maximus are perfect for those focusing ground feel and a truly barefoot experience on the trail. The TrailStars Maximus provide ultimate flexibility and natural foot movement in any environment.
Please note- the TrailStars Maximus and TrailStars Maximus LE are currently the thinnest sandals available with the TrailStars Lacing System. We unfortunately cannot put the TrailStars Lacing on soles that are any thinner than the TrailStars Maximus and Maximus LE, due to the lacing being incompatible with thinner soles.

Thank you for submitting a review!
Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
I like the slim look. The length was a lot longer than I expected and I trimmed the excess with a band saw.
I have had a problem with the front edge being thin, which sometimes catches on twigs and causes stumbling. I have to be mindful when not walking on flat surfaces
Excellent, excellent, excellent.
Using it wherever possible: walking, running !!!
Loved the ability to customize the strapping for optimum comfort and performance !!!
Already recommended Shamma Sandals for my wellness group.
I am really pleased with how the shoe feels on, it's adjustable straps, the flexibility of the sole, and great traction.
BUT. I have not been able to wear the shoe yet because the straps are too long for my low-ish volume feet, and I can't close the Velcro.
your mileage may vary but I had a pretty bad experience with Shamma as a company. The sandals I also didn't find comfortable, but that one I don't fault them for, I think it's hard to make sandals that fit everyone and you really do just need to try them out at home. One star back on for the 30 day moneyback guarantee, though note that you might (like me) find that cost of return postage is much higher than you expected.
Amazing piece of footwear. Got these as a gift to replace my current minimalist brand. I work from home, mostly at a standing desk, and like to work out in my home gym thruout the day. These sandals fit like a glove and the toe strap is a real game changer. Holds foot perfectly. You can't even tell you have shoes on and the straps hold everything stable for calisthenics, running, lifting, anything. Amazing, will be exploring your other shoes!
Shamma Sandals use custom soles that are designed to give you the best possible fit and experience, so please check your measurements with our sandal sizing chart. The templates of the sandals are available for download and printing.
To size yourself, print the template out and place your foot on the template so that the toe hole is between your big toe and first little toe. Make sure that your toes aren’t hanging off the front of the template, and that your ankles line up with the ankle slots on the sides of the sandal. If the ankle slots are under your foot a little bit, that’s ok, the laces come up and around your feet – just make sure that your toes don’t go past the front of the sandal, that your heel doesn’t go past the back of the sandal, and that the toe hole and ankle slots line up with your feet. For the best fit, we recommend choosing a sandal size that gives you between an 1/8" (3.18mm) to a 3/16" (4.76mm) of extra room in front of your toes and behind your heel.
BOOT SIZING CHART
For boot sizing, you can generally go with your standard street shoe size.
NOTE:Make sure your printer doesn’t resize or shrink to fit when printing! Check the measuring line of the template to a physical ruler before sizing! Larger sizes will need to be printedPosteracross2 sheets of paper.

ADJUSTMENT GUIDES
Did you receive your new pair of Shammas, but looking for some extra tips on how to get the perfect lace adjustments? Look no further! Below you can find step-by-step written instructions as well as videos for how to lace your sandals!
Elite Lacing System
(Our Elite Lacing System includes models: Warriors, Warriors LE, Warriors Maximus, Warriors Maximus LE, Chargers, Chargers LE, Mountain Goats, Mountain Goats LE).
1. First, loosen all 3 strap zones until there is excess slack in each section. The straps should be extremely loose in all three zones.
2. Start by centering your foot on the sandal, so that the placement of your foot is in the desired final location (you should have equal room in front of your toes and behind your heel with this placement).
3. Now that your foot is centered on the sandal, adjust the buckle front to back to find a desirable location.
4. Now tighten the insole strap. This will dictate the buckle’s left to right position on your foot. Keep the buckle parallel with the bone behind your big toe. If the buckle is too close to the bone behind your big toe it may be uncomfortable. If this is the case, loosen the insole strap and reposition the buckle farther to the outside of the foot.
5. Now that the buckle is in it’s desired position and the insole strap is tightened, tighten the toe strap until snug and comfortable.
6. Tighten the heel strap to your desired comfort level and enjoy your Shamma Sandals!
TrailStars Lacing System
(Our TrailStars Lacing System includes models: TrailStars Alpha, TrailStars Omega, TrailStars Maximus).
Super Lacing System
(Our Super Lacing System includes models: Super Browns, Super Goats).
Models in our Super Collections have 3 adjustment zones for the perfect fit- the toe strap, the insole strap, and the heel strap.
1. First, loosen all 3 strap zones until there is excess slack in each section. The straps should be extremely loose in all three zones.
2. Start by centering your foot on the sandal, so that the placement of your foot is in the desired final location (you should have equal room in front of your toes and behind your heel with this placement).
3. Now that your foot is centered on the sandal, adjust the buckle front to back to find a desirable location.
4. Now tighten the insole strap. This will dictate the buckle’s left to right position on your foot. Keep the buckle parallel with the bone behind your big toe. If the buckle is too close to the bone behind your big toe it may be uncomfortable. If this is the case, loosen the insole strap and reposition the buckle farther to the outside of the foot.
5. Now that the buckle is in it’s desired position and the insole strap is tightened, pull any extra slack from the toe strap zone through the outside ankle slot towards the heel.
6. Tighten the heel strap to your desired comfort level and enjoy your Shamma Sandals!
Classic Lacing System
(Our Classic Lacing System includes models: All Browns, All Blacks, Old Goats).
(Our Cruzer Lacing System includes the Cruzers and Pacific Blue Cruzers models).
Our Cruzers models have 3 adjustment zones for the perfect fit- the toe strap, the insole strap, and the heel strap.
1 - Adjust to Desired Fit
After centering your foot on the sandal, adjust the outside lacing so that the buckle is in a comfortable position and there is tension (but not too much) between the toe plug and ankle slot.
2. Pull On Power Sleeve
Adjust the Heel Strap by pulling up on the power sleeve, to create some space to tighten the Heel Strap. It should be enough space to grab the slack with two fingers.
3. Pull Slack Through
Pulling from the Heel Strap side, pull the extra slack through the bottom of the sandal until the Power Sleeve is resting in a snug position.
4. Pull On Power Sleeve
Pulling from the Inside Lacing side of the Power Sleeve, pull the extra slack through the Power Sleeve until the strap is flush with the sole of the sandal.
5. Adjust To Desired Fit
First, create slack underneath the buckle by creating some tension on the inside lacing side of the buckle. Adjust the lacing until Comfortable.
6. Pull Slack Through
Take extra slack and feed it back through the buckle, towards the inside lacing of the sandal. Pull slack until the buckle is flush with the foot.
7. Put Extra in Keeper
To keep the extra slack secure, feed the strap through the keeper and pull until comfortable. You are now ready to explore!
