This design is inspired by an ancient Mexican huarache style. Each pair of huaraches is handcrafted in Mexico by highly skilled artisans using traditional huarache construction techniques. Huaraches with a back: we generally recommend to select one size down, our huaraches fit snugly at first, since the leather will give and form to your foot with wear. If you normally wear a size 7.5 or 8, round down to a 7 Slides with no back: we generally recomend to round up. If you normally wear a size 7.5, do an 8.
