Classically Mexican – our rugged two-strap sandal Unlike the related Mexico model with three straps, here there are only two parallel straps that cross over the instep of the foot. A small modification only, but well visible. Especially with smaller sizes, Mexico dos looks more open and a little lighter with two (since Mexico dos) straps, without sacrificing the robust character of this leather sandal.

As with all our models that go by the name of Mexico, the straps are adjustable; so they can be fitted closely to the foot and also be readjusted if necessary. The ends of the straps are enlaced on the outside above the ankle in our “Mexican Joint”. They hold reliably even without a buckle and can also be adjusted in a few simple steps.

The sole of Mexico dos is a little wider than some of our other models, because here the straps are routed in a slightly other way. Overall, this sandal retains the rugged, durable character of its Mexican ancestors and also shares with them another important feature: Not only the outsole can be replaced once it is worn out, all other parts can be repaired as well. Which, however – and we have our experiences – will only be needed after a long time of extensive wearing.

MEXICO doss with its three straps can be ordered online or in our store & workshop in Freiburg.

Notes on:

Color choice

We use vegetable tanned leather we dye ourselves in different colors and shades. Because we make each model only to order, you can always select the color.

For online ordering, we only offer a limited range of colors; you can always find the color swatches on the online catalog page of the respective sandal model. When you order in our workshop, the color range is larger.

Apart from that, we have photographed the models for this online catalog in just one color mostly. If you browse the entire collection, you will get an idea of the other colors.

When you wear the sandals, the leather will develop its own patina over time, becoming darker. It is difficult to say how strong this effect will be. So, if in doubt, choose the leather a little brighter.

Please keep in mind: Each hide takes the color on in its own way, each dyeing process goes a little bit differently. And as to how your display or monitor shows the colors: we have no influence on that. Color deviations can therefore occur and are not per se a fault. If you want to be sure, take a look at the leather for your sandal in person at our store & workshop.

Sole properties

We use high quality outsoles in different colors. Which sole we should put on your sandal, you decide yourself. Of course, the color of the sole also affects the look of the sandal to a certain extent. You can go for contrast, for example with a light sole to a dark leather color, or choose a more low-key combination. Of course, the sole material also has an effect. When making your selection, keep in mind where you will normally wear your sandals. In the order of images: Soles 1, 2, 3 and 6 are made of high quality rubber. They are wear-resistant and rugged. Rubber is somewhat stiffer and therefore also makes the sole a little more rigid than, for example, EVA. The black sole No. 1 has quite a marked profile, which once again increases the grip. Sole No. 6 also offers very good grip thanks to its tread, while at the same time it is somewhat more supple thanks to added fine cork granules and has a more sportive look. This sole goes well with the lighter leather colors. Sole No. 1 and 6 can be useful in certain situations, for example, if you walk a lot on natural trails. Soles No. 2 and 3 only differ in color. They are rather flat and are more suitable on paved ways. Soles 4 and 5 have a higher EVA content. EVA is a proven, particularly lightweight sole material. EVA soles are more flexible than rubber, so they provide a more comfortable walking experience. What’s more, our EVA soles are a bit thicker than the rubber ones, enhancing the light cushioning effect.
