Pathway is our barefoot sandal for urban adventures. With its anatomical fit, padded straps, and a flexible Zero Drop sole, this lightweight sandal offers sporty aesthetics and maximum comfort. Pathway features two adjustable straps with hook-and-loop closures: one at the heel and a second one that runs across the instep. Based on your feedback, we've extended the instep strap for our updated Pathway version. Now Pathway can be adjusted even more individually to accommodate customers with medium to high insteps.
What's new in the improved Pathway version?
-
Longer instep strap
For many customers, the strap running over the top of the foot wasn't long enough. That's why we've extended it for the updated version to provide a comfortable fit for customers with medium to high-volume feet. Customers with lower foot volume can of course still wear the new Pathway version. If you have a very low instep, you can also have the strap shortened if needed. -
Hook-and-loop closures
We've also swapped the rough and soft sides of the hook-and-loop closure on the instep strap. This way, only the soft part of the closure can come into contact with your skin, even when the straps are adjusted very wide. To protect the strap material, we recommend always fully closing the closures when not wearing the sandals to prevent the rough hook side from coming into contact with the straps, e.g., when the shoes are stacked on top of each other. -
New sole shape
We've also optimized the sole shape. We removed excess sole material around the pinky toe area and widened the midfoot section for better strap placement. -
New construction without triangle buckle
The entire construction has received an upgrade. We've replaced the triangle buckle with padded, crossed straps, so the sandal now offers significantly more stability and no longer irritates the sensitive ankle area.
Other proven features that remain unchanged:
- 6.5 mm thin sole with textured insole and treaded outsole for better grip
- Padding for the pinky toe
- Vegan & unisex
- Sporty look
