Update #13: Satisfaction Guaranteed

Posted on April 18

I know we said our last update was the final one...but...with spring well on its way we think everyone will want to hear this.

We guarantee satisfaction to all our customers - past, present, and future. So if you've had issues with your pair of Kickstarter Bedrock's please get in touch with us and we will help figure out a solution.

Over the past winter Nick and I have been hard at work addressing issues and refining the design of Bedrock Sandals. We've added a rubber heel strap to make for a more comfortable secure fit and altered the positions of side holes to ensure a long lasting sandal life. 

We're also excited to now build our standard sized sandals with machine precision. To boot we now engraved our logo in the arch of all sandals. Check it out

In addition to changes to our sandals we will be hosting the Bedrock Trail Marathon and Half Marathon in Charlottesville, Virginia on May 12th. All proceeds will go to benefit 1% for the Planet. We hope to see you guys there.

For news and updates please like us on facebook or follow us on twitter. We usually updates those daily.

Thanks for your support!

Update #12: Last Update: New Sandals and Merino Socks!

Posted on January 16

Dear Backers,

Over the past 5 months we have used our kickstarter backing to start our running sandal company. Thanks for the support - there is no way we could have started Bedrock Sandals without you. 

This will officially be our last backer update. Please sign up for our Bedrock Sandals Mailing List, like us on facebook, and follow our twitter to continue being a part of our company.

New Sandals and Merino Wool Ninja Socks 

Over the past 2.5 months we have been developing a new  Earthquake sandal model. We use recycled bike inner tubes to make an elastic heel strap that makes finding a nice fit easy. The elastic keeps the heel strap up and snug in the most technical terrain. 


We also have been working on a cold weather solution for sandal running. We decided to build a Merino Wool Bedrock Toe Sock. In the world of toe socks, the Bedrock Ninja sock is a luxury mitten.  


Backer Mail in Offer: Want rubber heel straps on your Sandals?

Mail your sandals to Bedrock Sandals 530 West Wolfe St. Harrisonburg, VA 22802 and include a $5 check for postage. We'll add bike rubber to your sandals for free and send them back to you. 

Happy Trails,

Dan and Nick

Update #11: Strap Colors in this week

Posted on November 15, 2011

Dear Backers,

Bedrock Sandals has lots of great news. We now have a toll free 1-800-833-7965 number for help in sizing, fitting, and ordering. The best way to get help with your sandal fit or get sandal running advice is by phone. Call us - we love to chat!  In addition we now have an official Bedrock Sandals Twitter. If you use Twitter please follow us for sandal news and updates. 

This week red and blue strap colors will arrive. For those of you waiting we will begin sending your orders out (this mostly applies to people ordering multiple strap colors). We also got in some rugged stiffer straps a couple weeks ago that we love. Nick recently completed a Tough Mudder event these bad boys. Color wise we can now send out black, olive drab, pink, gray, blue, red, forest green, sage, and yellow. If we still owe you a pair (or two) please get in touch with colors.

Thanks for the continued support!
