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.

If you are in between half sizes, size down. For instance, if you are a size 39.5, choose a size 39.

Engineered for Different Rides

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.

Reviews

Love right out of the

"Love right out of the package. I haven't a low instep and narrow foot. These actually are the most comfortable slides ever. I have many, i mean many birkenstocks and these are my new favorites. Already ordered a second pair. Can't wait for them to arrive."

Sheryl S. (5/5)

Very comfy strap, doesn’t feel

"Very comfy strap, doesn’t feel like you have to break it in. Guessed right with my size. I ordered the same European size I wear in Birkenstocks and they fit perfectly. The cork is heavier and firmer than I thought it would be but excited to put some miles on these because they feel like they are going to hold up. They feel high quality. Worth the wait, just wish I got them at the beginning of summer and not the end."

Kristin K. (5/5)

"I was very excited to receive the sandal after a 6-week wait. Walking in the house was very comfortable; however, when I went for a walk outside, the slapping sound was so loud I couldn’t ignore it. It sounded like I was wearing flip-flops, only MUCH louder because the footbed is cork, not rubber. By then I couldn’t return the shoe. Perhaps the problem would not occur with the Shaw, which has a wider strap across the top, but I am not going to chance purchasing another sandal that I will be unable to return."

Jodie (2/5)

"The shoes are very comfortable. The problem is the elastic strap across the foot has enough give that the shoes make a loud thunk with every step. Every step the back pops back in to the heel and is loud. No matter how softly I try to walk. I do not wear them out of the house."

Dana (3/5)

I walk a lot at

"I walk a lot at work, so I was really excited about the style of these shoes, but also that they were washable so I can keep them clean and wear them for seasons to come. My first pair didn't have the perfect fit, but the Message team was so responsive and helped me get the right pair, without any extra cost, which I greatly appreciated. I love my new slides, but the way the brand responded spoke volumes and really tipped my excitement in an even more positive direction."

Sydney G. (5/5)

Just purchased the mullen slide

"Just purchased the mullen slide and love the cork bed feel. It isn't hot or sweaty for these warm summer days. Arch support is great and the band works well too as I have high arches."

Susan A. (5/5)

"These are beautiful and comfortable but they just squeeze mh foot out. So while they are advertised as a firl hig for your feet, thats only if you dont walk in them. I have to keep sliding my feet forward constantly. Absolutely not worth the money."

Rachael (2/5)

I've never owned cork sandals

"I've never owned cork sandals before as I never found a pair that I liked. These are super cute and super comfortable. I couldn't be happier."

Melissa K. (5/5)

My second pair of Message

"My second pair of Message slides, and I love them. I actually noticed an improvement in the design compared to my previous pair. They fit even better, and I didn’t have any sort of break-in period."

Cathleen M. (4/5)

Love love love!! As soon

"Love love love!! As soon as I slipped my foot inside I knew they would be my favorite new slip ones! The color goes with everything and the fit is perfect"
