Nice video. Very to the point. With the rugged terrain version, you could put the plugs in the top side first before you contact cement the sole to sandwich the plug ends.
Came here to say this. Then you don’t have the plugs taking wear and tear.
Car mats would be a good sole.
Your video was relaxing to watch. Also very informative and not too overwhelming ☺️
So talented and beautiful work!!
Great video! Thank you!

Loveeee itt
Thanks! :)
sakto sa hinahanap ko hahaha excellent video! :D
Good stuff here
Very creative and inspiring video! I want to do this but also add something to make them grounded like my earth runners
That's a fantastic idea, Gabriel. Initially, I planned to insert copper grommets however, I couldn't find those in my area. I would love to get a hold of those in the near future!
How do you verify whether something is correctly grounded or not??
@@gratefuldoge8598 I've seen a video where they tested themselves with a Electric Tester and when they are properly grounded, it shows on the meter 0.00v. I'll try to find that video and link it here
Ethical Juan nice, thanks!
Great Design taste
very well edited!
Thanks, Bailey! ;)
Hi, does the knot underneath your forefoot (1:57) make it uncomfortable? And if so, how did you fix that? Thanks!
Can we paste leather to the double rubber sole to make it more durable
Astig!
Gawa kana bro 😄
Where did you get those rubber plates?
how long do the cord ends on the bottom of the sole live?
I just wonder why you did the strap at the heel and not a simpler Version like a flipflop. Also It would have made a lot of sense to place the small loops within those two layers you glued together. In that case you wont walk on the melted "fixing" and wear it down.
I really like the idea on making my own sandals. Maybe I should try and maybe I will use a leather insole just for comfort and looks.
Thx a lot for creating this Video.
Cheers, Mike
Leather would also be better for the "grounding"
If you walk uphill or climb a ladder, you can slip out of shoes without a backstrap. It's a common cause of accidents during the summer months, when home owners walk around in flip flops and suddenly get the idea to "finally fix that thing on the roof". I highly recommend a backstrap.
100% agree on the loop between the layers.
I know I'm a bit late here, but flip flops are actually really really terrible for your feet. Because there's no heel support, the toes constantly work to keep the shoe on your foot, which is tough on the tendons on the underside of the toe and foot. It can lead to weakness in some of the muscles in the foot and tighness in others, causing problems like tendonitis, hammer toe and mallet toe to name a few. These deformities can be crippling if left untreated. Foot issues are one of the major causes of back pain, which is a super common issue for most adults because honestly, most of the shoes we wear are bad for our feet. This kind of shoe, with no arch support that's basically just a layer of protection between your foot and things on the ground that could cut or scrape your skin is one of the healthier things you can put on your feet. plenty of room for metatarsal splay and it doesn't lock your foot in one position so that your foot's muscles stay well developed.
@@emokonya How thick should the leather be?
you think it's ok to sew cloth around it? I wanna try this but I really dislike the feel of gum on my feet

Huaraches! Any leads on locally-produced ones?
Jerson, I've encountered several shoe stores in Olongapo City who produces custom made huaraches. Although they sell very thick soled sandals. My suggestion is visit some shoe repair/supplies, they probably have the resources in this video tutorial. Thanks for watching! ;)
how thick is the chord?
Is there an alternative to rubber for people with latex allergies? Will Eva foam work?
Hi Jewel, I'm not knowledgeable regarding people with latex allergies. Please consult with your doctor for professional advice. Thank you for watching! 😄
Maybe you could glue or cement a thin layer of non-latex material onto the footbed? Just be sure to use something that won't make your feet slip around.
Use leather. It will "ground you too!" and it's pretty strong!
I’d prefer just making like socks out of suede they are great but not for beginners they just keep your foot from being cut so unless your good with walking barefoot it may be uncomfortable so this is better for beginners
Good idea ;)
Ethical Juan thank you
Where can I get the rubber sole? Is it possible to provide a link?
Try this. I think this is what I'll be getting to make some.

Check your local shoe repair/supply store, they might have it handy for you ;)
Replying to give you an update on the product I linked to... It seems like it's too stiff, despite some of the reviews saying people used it to make minimalist sandals. Maybe there's something softer, or thinner that would work better.
Tetrafish_21 xero shoes website actually has the rubber and kit to make some diy sandals. I’ve just received mine and they’re the closest thing to nothing. I purchased the kit for about $35.
Use leather. It's stronger and provides "grounding" too.
If you add a third piece of foam between the insole (where your foot sits) and the outsole (the part that touches the ground), and cut small holes in the sandwiched foam where the paracord knots are, it will make the shoes a lot more comfortable.
the whole point is to have minimal padding
The whole point is to not walk on knots
where can we get the rubber ?? thanks
Try your local shoe repair/supply store, they might have it ;)
An old doormat works great, cheap or free if you know where to look.
👏👏👏👏👏🔥👍🍹🍯🍮🍾beautiful
Is it uncomfortable to wear?
If it's you're first time and you've had your foot in a cast (shoes) for several decades now, yes. However, it'll just take consistent wearing for your foot to adapt to it. Your foot will be ok in no time. I've worn this kind of thin-soled shoes for about two months now, it's super comfortable to wear. I use this for walking, running, and hiking and I have no problem with it whatsoever.
@@EthicalJuan Thanks for the info! 😊
@@alonasining9339 Welcome 😉
Where did you get your midsole foam or rubber?
@@bryceharris2707 I purchased it at a local shoe supply store. It's also available in upholstery shops.
Can you make me a pair.
Lol. No. Go make your own pair. And if you're gonna ask if someone can make you something for anything in life, at least be willing to offer to pay for it.
The soles are too thick for barefoot sandals.
