Prem Thomas, creator of Guru Sandals, has completely redesigned the sandal game, introducing a sandal that is fashionable, comfortable, and for a good cause.Taking inspiration from the ancient wood methiyedi (meth-ee-yed-ee) sandal, Prem loved the artistic design and soon found out that the traditional design was worn by his grandfather and prominent individuals of modern India. Using natural rubber sustainably harvested from Prem and his partner, Joe’s families’ rubber farms, the Guru sandal was born.
Using primarily natural rubber, Guru sandals are biodegradable and much better for the environment than traditional flip-flops or sandals. Because Gurus are made from trees, the brand will plant a tree for every pair sold.
