Native Shoes Unisex Sandals & Boots for Outdoor Footwear

Native Shoes brings a practical approach to casual footwear. Born in Vancouver, the brand built its name on the Jefferson, a perforated slip-on with molded foam construction that's easy to wash and quick to dry after exposure to water.

Beyond the signature sneaker, the brand offers sandals suited to warm weather, travel, and family outings. Its boots, including the Fitzsimmons Citylite, feature a hiking-inspired look for everyday urban wear. The range also includes unisex styles for different wearers.

Native Shoes is known for its "beast free" philosophy: a commitment to avoiding animal-derived materials. Some models also use foam blends made with sugarcane resin and algae, adding alternative materials to the brand's footwear lineup. Run United offers a selection of Native Shoes sneakers for men and women, along with sandals and boots for everyday wear.

Are Native Shoes safe and suitable for toddlers?

Yes. Lightweight, easy-to-clean styles like the Jefferson suit casual wear and water play. Native states that its footwear is BPA-free and phthalate-free and complies with applicable safety requirements. These are manufacturer disclosures, not independent lab results.

Are Native Shoes non-slip?

They are not certified non-slip, so traction on wet or slippery surfaces isn't guaranteed.

Are Native Shoes waterproof?

Classic Jefferson shoes are water-friendly, not waterproof. The Jefferson Hydroknit has a waterproof membrane.
