About
Brand X Huaraches was established in 1973 to promote traditional Mexican craftsmanship, especially the historic huaraches. These Mexican summer sandals have existed since pre-Columbian times and were worn primarily by farmworkers and rural laborers.
Mexican huaraches are handwoven using thin strips of leather. The unique weaving pattern allows your feet to breathe while the leather insoles absorb moisture, making these sandals perfect for the summer. Each pair of leather huaraches is handmade, so no two pair of huaraches are exactly alike.
At Brand X Huaraches, we work with local Mexican artisans to give these sandals a modern twist. Our huaraches are designed in California and made in Mexico by craftsmen who’ve been making them for decades. Our in-house design team has updated the humble huaraches by incorporating a wide range of styles and colors. We’ve also maintained quality by using the best materials. Unlike other sandals, our Mexican huaraches are made using vegetable-tanned leather. This is an environmentally sustainable practice that makes the leather soft on the skin and gives off a natural glow. Similarly, the Italian outsoles on our huaraches ensure durability.
