Understanding which sandal is best suited for you

What makes Venture Sandals your new favourites.

Handcrafted Excellence

Every pair of Venture Sandals is meticulously handcrafted in South Africa, combining local craftsmanship with top-quality materials sourced globally, like the Vibram soles form Italy and Hi quality tubular webbing from the USA . This dedication to detail ensures every sandal meets the highest standards of durability and comfort.

Eco-Friendly Materials

We’re committed to sustainability, using natural materials like Veg Tan leather and cork that connect you to nature. By opting for minimalistic, durable designs, we reduce waste and create sandals built to last.

Ergonomic Design

Our sandals are shaped with ergonomic principles in mind, giving you a natural stride and supporting the foot’s anatomy. With a 13mm stack height that includes a Vibram sole and foam midsole, every step is cushioned and stable, perfect for long-distance trails or everyday wear.

Exceptional Traction

Built for adventure, our sandals feature Vibram Newflex or Megalug soles that provide aggressive grip and stability on all surfaces—from rocky trails to wet river crossings. The grippy footbeds further prevent slipping, letting you explore with confidence.

Customizable Fit and Design

Choose from a variety of lace colours and Soles to make each pair uniquely yours. We also offer personalized adjustments to the midsole and footbed thickness, ensuring a tailored fit for every foot shape.

Weather-Ready Construction

Designed to withstand the elements, our sandals use materials and designs optimized for both dry and wet conditions. Whether it’s a sunny hike or a river crossing, Venture Sandals adapt to the environment, keeping your feet comfortable and secure.

Lightweight and Breathable

Minimalist design meets breathable comfort. Venture Sandals allow for natural airflow, preventing sweat build-up and creating an open, airy feel that closed shoes can’t provide.

Benefits of Sandal Freedom

Durable Comfort: Made with high-quality Vibram soles and resilient leather laces, these sandals withstand any adventure.

Handcrafted Quality: Each pair is made by hand with materials sourced from the finest suppliers around the world, including Vibram Soles and Hi quality webbing.

Healthier Feet: Minimalist design encourages natural movement, helping reduce foot fatigue and improve muscle strength.

A Story of Passion and Perseverance.

In 2013, Venture Sandals founder Terrick stumbled upon a new path after reading Born to Run. Inspired by the natural running philosophy, he began crafting sandals that defied convention, bringing freedom and comfort to runners and adventurers alike. Today, Venture Sandals is more than a product; it’s a journey toward rediscovering the earth beneath our feet, made with passion and purpose.

Explore, connect, and never give up – just like the spirit of “Vasbyt” that launched our very first pair. Each pair of Venture Sandals embodies our dedication to quality and comfort.

Testimonials from Happy Feet

“Ive been using Venture Sandals for over a year now and absolutely love them.

The odd road run, more trail runs and then even just everyday wear. They’re comfortable, don’t move around and a ton more durable than slops.

For most of my adventures, especially where there is water involved, they’re my number one choice.

Can’t say enough good things about the grip from the Vibram soles too”

I’ve been a minimalist runner for many years now, I’ve tried and tested all varieties of shoes and sandals. One morning running in Kliprivierberg Nature Reserve I bumped into a fellow minimalist runner and I had to ask him where did you get those sandals from ? I was thinking he was going to say the US. To my amazement it was a local manufacturer called Venture sandals 🥳

I now own 4 pairs and have run hundreds of kilometres in my Sandals.

Dealing with Terrick is absolutely amazing and our coffee chats and planning is always exciting.

I am prepping to run my first ultra marathon in 2024 in my Venture sandals …… must just figure out which pair.

Thank you Terrick and Venture sandals for the incredible service and the best Sandals I have run in. 👣

The happiest day of my feet’s life, was bumping into Terrick at the trails. Running always felt hard and painful, until I tried the Vasbyt sandals.  My feet were in heaven and I started to love running.  I have since gotten another two pairs of Strandloper Trails, one for the road and one for the trails.  They all fit perfectly. The craftsmanship is top class and it includes a special custom-madeshoe bag and wooden foot roller.  Terrick’s passion and attention to detail is phenomenal.  He even went so far as to magically fix my Vasbyt sandals after the puppy had a piece of it for a snack.  If you want happy feet, try a pair of Venture Sandals
