The Huarache Gets A Modern Vegan Makeover from Malibu Sandals

Malibu Sandals Modern Huaraches

Kevin O’Neill has combined the ancient craft of the Mexican huarache sandal with contemporary design and engineering to create Malibu Sandals modern huaraches – a line of comfortable, chic and cruelty-free footwear for men and women.

The centuries-old Mexican huarache sandal is traditionally handmade and constructed out of raw leather, with an intricate woven pattern that’s iconic, durable and proven to withstand the test of time. Malibu Sandals has taken those cues and contemporized them by adding such updated features as a soft anatomically correct polyurethane footbed, sculpted arch support and signature M-Grip sole.

Designed in Southern California, Malibu Sandals modern huaraches have updated the woven aspect by hand-crafting it with 100% cruelty-free, water-friendly materials such as straw, nylon, polyurethane, rubber and vegan leather.
