Can You Trail Run in Sandals? The LUNA Sandals Guide

1 min readTulipSport

Barefoot Ted from Born to Run runs ultramarathons in sandals. LUNA Sandals is the world's first modern trail sandal brand.

From Born to Run to LUNA

In 2006, Barefoot Ted traveled to Mexico's Copper Canyons, ran ultramarathons with the Tarahumara people, and learned huarache sandal-making from Manuel Luna. He returned to create LUNA Sandals with modern Vibram outsoles. The brand name honors Manuel Luna and the Tarahumara running heritage.

Buying Guide: Oso vs Venado vs Leadville

LUNA has three core trail sandal lines: Oso Winged (classic, $99), Venado 2.0 (150g race, $85), Leadville Trail (thick Vibram, $109). Start with the Oso Winged if you're new to trail sandals.
