    Unshoes Wokova Feather

    Yes, the idea was to make it easier to do repairs but it is less practical than a snap for mass production. I'm finding that screws allow for human error. A locking nut sounds good but they need to be low profile enough to be able to set into a sole as thin as 4mm. I really like the Locktite...

    Personally, I prefer the wider straps on the Pah Tempe but I have a large man foot :)

    Teva Northridge

    The model had bunions and she chose a narrower template. Here is a picture of mine. You can see that they attach just behind the joints so they allow full toe movement. It really is a fine line because if they are attached too far back then the front of the sandal tends to flop down a bit. We...

    Teva Northridge

    Have you looked at the PT Sleek from Unshoes? They are designed just like the Pah Tempe but with narrower webbing. The straps are set just far back enough that they don't cram the toes together. The straps are from a soft, tubular nylon that breathes well.

    Unshoes Wokova Feather

    We want to get something that doesn't thread but snaps together permanently. Thread lock is a good idea until we (or make) the exact hardware that we need.

    Unshoes Wokova Feather Minimalist Running Sandals

    Have you checked the location of the toe strap? There are two main points on the sandal that could push your foot inwards. The first is where the strap between your toes is located. The second is the strap with the loop on the very outside edge. If it was placed too far in, it would push your...

    Unshoes Pah Tempe

    Sounds good. I recommend using a good utility knife with a new blade. Try to cut them with one smooth motion. If you have a sander, you can lightly sand the tread on the front edge and that will keep them from catching. In general, if you wear them for about a week then the tread on that front...

    Unshoes Pah Tempe

    NickW, send them back and I'd be happy to adjust them for you! P.O. Box 1411 Cedar City, UT 84721. Or if you really want them to shrink, you can heat them up to about 150° F and then let them cool but they will shrink in all directions.

    Do you take your phone with you when running?

    There are some trails that I used to run a lot that usually had squatters camping nearby. They were not just people getting out of town for a while or traveling. They were often unstable and dangerous people. When I ran there I always took my phone. I recently moved and don't run there as often...

    Do you take your phone with you when running?

    I'm usually on the trails. They're close by and there is always phone service so I guess I ought to take it but I usually don't. My wife likes me to (deja vu?) but I've started just mapping out my routes before I go and she is fine with me leaving it. If I go on a long run then I'll take it. I'm...

    Grand Canyon - Rim to River to Rim

    Sorry I couldn't make it! We'll have to go again later. You are right that it is an addicting place. Once you do one part of the canyon you can't help but to think, "yeah, I could do more if I trained for it."

    Husband

    My wife has dabbled in running but we can't go together because her running pace is a brisk walk for me. She goes out every now and then but it just isn't her thing. My almost 2 year old asks me to go running with him sometimes though. He ran almost all the way around the block last week! I was...

    Grand Canyon Rim to Rim with nothing on my feet and a smile on my face

    It sounds like the rain gods smiled upon you and your bare feet! Nice job. The North Kaibab is is very steep. Maybe try going the other way next time?
