The first model to come out of Walter Hoys workshop in 1944, the Original Salt-Water Sandal stands out from other summer sandals with its waterproof leather uppers, little way stitched sole and rust proof buckles. The Original from the Salt-Water range are as durable and timeless as they are beautiful. This sandal in tan is the perfect colour to match any outfit! With any of the sandals, should you get a sore spot, dunk your foot and sandal into water (yes really!) and wear them until they dry.

Key features:

  • Adjustable buckle toe strap
  • 100% waterproof leather
  • Rust proof buckles
  • Hand-washable

The Original is a roomy sandal and fits comfortably wide.

Before you put them on for the first time, stretch out the toe straps and gently bend the sole to ease.

Best fitted with toes behind the stitch line.

Made of 100% water-resistant cow leather upper and rust proof buckles.

The best way to clean your leather sandals is by hand. Place your Salt-water Sandals in a bowl of cold water and add a little mild detergent. Use a soft cloth to wipe them down and put them outside on a warm day to dry. 

The specially treated leather means they won’t dry hard, but it is best to dry them flat rather than hanging them up on the line. 

Leather protectors and brushes are not recommended as they can erode the special sealant. Simply washing down with cool water will keep them looking as good as new!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! All Salt-Water Sandals are 100% water resistant. Salt-Water Sandals are defined by their 100% leather straps which are coated with a water resistant sealant and secured with rust proof buckles.

Salt-Water Sandals recommend popping them on and soaking your feet in room temperature water before letting air dry – whilst still having the sandals on your feet. This can be done on all Salt-Water and Sun-San styles.

This helps the leather ‘give’ a little as it would naturally over time. Please note, Salt-Water Sandals cannot accept returns of sandals that have been soaked unless faulty.

Salt-Water sandals feeling a bit stiff? Simply bend the soles of the sandals into a C shape to flex the sole. Please note we do not recommend this for Sun-San sandal styles.

These steps will help to soften the leather and help accelerate the sandals in moulding to your feet for the most comfortable fit.

We recommend Boardwalk, Classic Adult, Classic Slide Sandals andSurfer Sandals for wide feet. These styles include an adjustable strap with buckle.

We like to make it as clear as possible on the product pages, as Salt-Water sizing differs from standard sizing. On the specific product pages we include a chart with the Salt-Water sizes and the corresponding UK size, EU size and US size.

On all children’s Salt-Water Sandals, we suggest buying like for like up to a youth size 13. For example, if your child is a UK size 6, we suggest a Salt-Water size 6.

On all children’s Sun-San Sandals we suggest going one size up from your UK size. For example, if your child is a UK size 6, we suggest a Sun-San size 7. 

An original design dating back to the 1940’s, Salt-Water Sandals were originally made from scrap leather as a way to cope with leather shortages in World War II in the Hoy family factory in St Louis, Missouri. The same designs are now sold globally and are still produced in the Hoy family factory in the USA and in China.

The best way to clean your leather sandals is by hand. Place them in a bowl of cold water and add a little mild detergent. Use a soft cloth to wipe them down and put them outside on a warm day to dry. The specially treated leather means they won’t dry hard, but it is best to dry them flat rather than hanging them up on the line. You can use the same method of cleaning across our entire style and colour range.
