    barecork™ footbed.  

    Crafted from upcycled wine cork, harvested from cork oak forests in Portugal every nine years without harming the tree. Water-safe, cork-on-cork construction molds to your foot, naturally absorbs impact, and provides subtle arch support without added weight. Cork is a natural material and may show minor separation or flaking with wear—this is normal and does not affect function or comfort.

    hugflex™ upper. 

    A patented compression stretch-knit that wraps the foot like a sock. It holds without pinching, flexes as you move, and never needs to be broken in. The Mullen's minimal strap keeps the ride light and free.

    Natural rubber sole. 

    Flexible, durable, grounded.

    100% vegan. 

    No animal materials. Get them wet; these are quick-drying materials. 

    Handcrafted in Portugal. 

    Handcrafted in small batches by 2nd- and 3rd-generation family-owned workshops outside Porto, all within forty minutes of one another. The cork is carbon-negative, and the production runs are small to keep waste at zero. Built to last, not to pile up.

    Fit

    Our straps are designed to hold the foot snug but not tight, like a really good hug. We recommend pulling them on like socks, shimmying your toes to the top of the slide for a secure, comfy, strapped-in fit. Measurements below are based on a size 38.


    MULLEN

    Original, wear-everywhere silhouette, comfortably snug but with more spring in your step.

    SHAW

    Increased stability improves your every move and fits every foot just right, even narrow feet.

    MESSAGE slides are 100% machine washable. Gentle cycle, cold water, air dry. The cork is water-safe, naturally antimicrobial and antifungal, they stay fresh however far you walk in them.

    Shipping. Free shipping on all orders from $150 (excluding Hawaii and Alaska). Once your pair is on its way, we'll send tracking so you can follow it to your door.

    Mullen

    the barefoot hug. Our most minimal slide. The shortest hugflex™ strap in our collection for a free, uninhibited feel. Classic slide width, our own unique interpretation.

    Shaw

    the secure hug. Shaw's strap is about 20% longer than the Mullen, wrapping more of the foot for a more sophisticated ride. Supportive enough for a 20,000-step day, effortless enough to still be a slide.

    They feel amazing and I

    "They feel amazing and I have been wearing them so much! I just ordered the Shaw slide in white for me and in black for my husband because he really likes my Mullen but I feel like he might like the Shaw better because the top is going to cover more and they might be a little more comfortable to walk in for him. I find the Mullen take a bit of getting used to because of the stretchy top and also how different, in a good way, they feel to walk in compared to the Archie’s flip flops I wear a lot"

    I’m enjoying my Mullen slides!

    "I’m enjoying my Mullen slides! The fit is perfect for my size 10 narrow foot. I wear Birkenstocks most all the time and these are a nice change. I love the look and the comfort couldn’t be better!"

    — Newsletter S. (5/5)

    I'm a bigger girl with

    "I'm a bigger girl with chubby feet and was worried these wouldn't fit but they do! There is enough elastic type movement in the fabric where my foot can fit in. Wears great, doesn't slide off, sooooo cute!"

    — Stephanie P. (5/5)

    I like the slides as

    "I like the slides as I have quit wearing "thong strap" sandals - they actually contribute to hammer toes in case you didn't know. I like the wide band - it is stretchy and comfy and I do have high arches. However - I don't love them $150 worth compared to Corky's or Reefs, which are equally comfortable. I wear 8. 5 and I did order an 8. the fit is great."

    — Kathy R. (4/5)

    These are really great shoes.

    "These are really great shoes. No breaking in, very classic, worth the cost. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is that I got a pair of the other style with the wider strap and I like those a little better. I have a high arch and thought they might hurt, but they’re also great and a little more secure. But no duds."

    — Margaret W. (4/5)

    Wow these are incredible. So

    "Wow these are incredible. So comfortable. No break in time they are instantly comfortable. I was looking for an alternative to Birkenstocks that were cuter and these are it. If you’re on the fence, do it!"

    — Maya S. (5/5)

    An amazing shoe - so

    "An amazing shoe - so super comfortable and the navy color is stunning. I get compliments every time I wear them. Highly recommended!"

    I love these so much!

    "I love these so much! They’re my new favorite sandal. I’ve already ordered another pair."

    — Tracy B. (5/5)

    As a lifelong Birkenstock wearer,

    "As a lifelong Birkenstock wearer, I wanted something equally comfortable and hopefully more stylish. The Mullen Slides are just that! After a couple of days of not loving the fit, I tried hiking up the band on my arch and voila! They stay on and feel amazing."

    — Bess L. (5/5)

    These are my new favorite

    "These are my new favorite sandals. A family member recommended these to me since I was looking for something like an elevated birkenstock(that doesn’t really do these shoes justice…but anyway). I love love love the cork bed & after a week of wearing them on and off can already feel them forming super well to my feet. They’re super comfortable off the bat, but it’s starting to feel even dreamier. The elastic top is soft and super secure. These are great, HIGH quality slides, and I have no doubt that these will last me a very long time. When I initially ordered them I had gotten the wrong size, and customer service was prompt and kind. I was quickly able to get them exchanged for the perfect size."
