What type of rubber is used on the Primal?
The Walkabase sole of the Primal Lifestyle sandals is an expanded rubber compound with a weight 30% less than solid rubbers. Walkbase GumEVA compound is engineered to be long-wearing, and provides improved grip–even in wet conditions.
What aspect of the Primal distinguishes its performance from the other sandal models?
The Primal features no bedding allowing it to shed water and keep its lightweight properties in wet conditions.
Who is the ideal candidate for a pair of Primal sandals?
Somebody with strong feet who is looking for the minimal amount of protection. They are most likely a frequent barefooter and just looking for some something to expand their barefoot range.
*This sole thickness reads 8mm but it feels more like 6mm due to its rather low density composition.
