Bite's third generation running sandal, now with a new heel strapping system and an all mesh lining to reduce heat over the foot. All other great foot health properties remain for the Men's Xtension running sandal: Strengthening the feet through increased muscle use, dual density posted midsole, cushioning, arch support, and our exclusive forefoot spring bar. Basically a supportive running shoe made into a breathable sandal. Terrific sandal for training, trail running, trekking, and marathons.
Perfect Shoe
My foot hurt from wearing sneakers when I was training for the marathon. I read the book that came out recently, Born to Run. In the book, the runners used running sandals. I Googled "running sandals" and found this shoe. I ordered it, and have been really happy with it ever since I started wearing it. It is just perfect. I love it to death! No more sneakers for me!
A Cut Above All
I've had many sandals over the years from the cheapest ABC Hawaii slippers to the the best Teva's and Keen's but these are hands down the tops. They have proven to be great for running and have helped strengthen my lazy marathon feet and lower legs. They are on my feet everyday walking a couple miles and when I switch to my work shoes or running shoes I cringe. They are well built, wear well, and look great. It blows my mind to think no one knows of these. Several times I've been asked by strangers what brand are those as they have never seen them before. They couldn't be more highly recommended by me and cross your fingers they stick around as Crocs purchased Bite.
Great Sandals
The new heel strapping system on mine failed after 300 miles. Luckily I was able to repair one side with a wire. When the other side broke at about 600 miles, I was unable to repair it. Very comfortable, would love to have more.
