Which should you buy?

Buy Bedrock Sandals if: You want a rugged hiking and river-crossing sandal trusted by thru-hikers and built for serious mileage.

Buy Luna Sandals if: You want a huarache-style sandal for running, long walks and active outdoor use with a more classic minimalist feel.

Our take

Bedrock wins for hiking, water and adventure use thanks to its quick-adjust strap system and bombproof outsole. Luna wins as a running-first huarache with deeper minimalist heritage. Bottom line: choose Bedrock for rugged hiking, choose Luna Sandals for running huaraches.
