2017 FOOTWEAR
We make shoes to help elevate your experience in Nature.
They supplement the body’s natural ability to navigate extreme terrain, whether in a deep canyon or a perilous trail, they are designed to hold firm to the ground and move with agility and confidence.
Our shoes are also playful. Run through creeks, stomp in puddles, or cruise through meadows of flowers.
Who are we? We are a crew of friends running a ferociously independent company for the benefit of Nature.

WATER READY
TM
All our shoes are happy when wet.
Water Ready™ All Astral shoes have a special relationship with water. Every ingredient in our shoes, from the adhesive to the laces, is critically evaluated for its ability to endure constant soaking, resist funk and dry quickly. No rot, no stank, no kidding.
BALANCED GEOMETRY
TM
Level footbed for natural balance & biomechanics.
Balanced Geometry™ We believe that a foot’s position in a shoe should be similar to when barefoot. This promotes excellent balance and a biomechanically natural lifestyle. Our shoes are nearly level (only 1mm drop from heel to toe), provide medium arch support, and allow the toes to spread out.

TOP SHANK
TM
Our secret rubber formula sticks like tar.
Supports foot while allowing soles to conform and cushion.
G® Rubber
TOP SHANK™
Our background as extreme whitewater kayakers gave us an obsessed focus on the grip of footwear; walking on wet rocks above deathly sluices is serious proving ground. nothing was good enough.
On our shoes are meant to be worn for many consecutive miles, we insert a semi-rigid shank under the center of the foot, into the top part of the midsole. We found that by placing the shank in the TOP of the midsole (it’s typically in the bottom), it effectively supports the foot while allowing the EVA and Rubber layers of the sole to conform to the trail.... increasing grip and reducing impact.
So we developed a very special rubber that is incredibly sticky, conforms to surfaces, and is non-marking. Choose G.ss™ (Granite Grip™) if you require a freaky level of stickiness. G.15™ (Flex™ and Marine™ Grips) provides excellent stickiness with more durability.
