Sanuk

Sanuk ShoesSanuk shoes has been around since July, 1997 when Jeff Kelley started making sandals out of inner tubes and indoor-outdoor carpet. 1998 marked our first full year of operations. While weve progressed into semi-proper footwear company (uh-oh), Jeffs spirit of innovation still serves as the backbone of our little brand. Today, we strive to make products that are as much about funk as they are about function. Weve found our sandals are happiest when they tread the road less traveled so we design em accordingly. Because Sank is the Thai word for happiness and balance, our name is also our mantra. Our goal is to provide creatively inspired yet thoughtfully designed products for the global outdoor communitymostly because were part of it. Headquartered in Southern California, we are an eclectic little family hailing from Santa Cruz, Seattle, Cardiff by the Sea, the Philippines, Colombia, Hong Kong, and even Papua New Guinea. With your support, we continue to grow and now have distribution across the United States and in over 50 countries throughout Europe, Asia, South America and Australia. Sank sponsors a diverse group of professional athletes ranging from surfers like Donavon Frankenreiter and Dave Rastovich to rock climbers like Chris Sharma and Randy Leavitt. Their impact on our brand culture has been profound as we deliberately partner with athletes known as much for their style and charisma as their specialized talents. Like the products we design, our roster of athletes is truly superfunktional.
