TrailStar Maximus

The TrailStar Maximus pushes performance with every step. Designed for intense activity that requires speed and precision, the TrailStar Maximus functions as well in the gym as it does outdoors. These lightweight and secure sandals break the boundaries of what you expect from minimalist footwear. 

Sole

The Maximus sole uses an 8mm Vibram® Newflex sole coupled with a tan leather footbed for a 9mm total stack height. Vibram® Newflex is made from a blend of rubber and EVA to form a durable soling material with aggressive tread. At 3mm thicker than the Warrior sole, you will get a much more rugged sandal that is capable of diffusing the feeling of rocks, sticks, and the like from underfoot. The Maximus sole is suitable for a host of situations from the trail to the gym.

TrailStar Lacing System

Increased security from over-the-foot style lacing is the hallmark of TrailStars. The TrailStar Lacing system features a specially made forefoot strap made from Toray® Ultrasuede and a nylon mesh. The result is an extremely comfortable material with the strength properties of webbing. The forefoot strap is completely adjustable and anchored through the bottom of the sole. Final adjustments are made through a tension lock on the outer heel post. All forefoot straps are cut-to-fit after adjustment. The heel section of the lacing system employs two heel posts covered in Ultrasuede for comfort. Heel strap adjustments are locked into place using Velcro®. The result is an extremely comfortable and secure lacing system that is ready for adventure!

Recraftable

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!

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.

Nice sandals but sole is thick

Came fast, easy to adjust, feel comfortable, but I feel like my sole has been sedated. Not the groundfeel I was hoping for.

The special pair made at the shop right in front of me by Josh!

This is my 2nd pair of sandals to be exact from Shamma Sandals. My 1st pair was the Trailstar Alphas with ultragrip, no complain, but thinking of getting size 7.5 this time rather than 7 like the previous one and with leather too. The fit is just spot on! Adjustment is damn intuitive and done within minutes for both feet. Happy Trails indeed!

Love my trailstars

These are my 2nd pair of shamma sandals. My trailstar maximus are very comfortable and I can barely feel that they are there. I followed the online tutorial for the adjustments. Easy to adjust. I would like more colors and more models. No blisters, no pain.

Great fit

I like the sandals a lot . Only issue is that they click /make noise when walking on tile or other hard indoor surfaces. Maybe adding a rubber coating to the adjustment pieces on the bottom would help?! Thanks
