GoLite Tarahumara Sandal Shoe

Tarahumara Sandal Shoe — GoLite Footwear’s Tara Lite running shoe is said to have been inspired by the Tarahumara tribes of Mexico, a native group known for their distance running skills who wear minimal thong-style sandals.

What makes the GoLite shoe unique is its flat, “zero-drop” heel, flexible sole, and a soft upper. The kicker: Inside the shoe, separating your big toe from the rest, there’s an internal sandal post that keeps your foot from moving too much and helps the flexible shoe fit snug.

The Tara Lite will come in men’s and women’s models for $115.

  1. A bold innovation. They stuck with “Golite orange” – probably not a good choice.

    Note that Golite Footwear and Golite are totally separate companies. Timberland bought the name and some rights only, then decided to quit shoes; the brand name was them purchased and re-launched by employees of Timberland.
