Do These ‘Rogue’ Sandals Rival Chacos? Forsake Sandals Review<\/h2>\n
When heavy hiking boots aren’t required, hiking sandals can be an excellent choice of footwear. Here’s why the Forsake Rogue Sandals are now my top choice. Read more…<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/a><\/div>\n <\/p>\n After experiencing the plush cushion of the Cairn Evo Cs, I don\u2019t know if I could go back to the original Bedrock Cairn Evos<\/a>. I\u2019m more accustomed to the beefy footbed of Chacos, and my feet feel better with a bit more support. <\/p>\n Several years ago, I tried out a more minimalist model from Luna Sandals<\/a>; I loved how lightweight the Lunas were, but I experienced some foot pain when I tried to wear them for longer hikes or scrambles.\u00a0<\/p>\n What really sets the Cairn Evo Cs apart is how they maintain comfort while reducing weight. I have been looking for a capable sandal that\u2019s lighter and less bulky than my old pair of Chacos, and these perfectly fit the bill. <\/p>\n I even strapped them to the back of my climbing harness to wear while descending off of a climb; at 9.6 ounces per sandal, I barely noticed the extra weight while climbing.\u00a0<\/p>\n I\u2019m also excited to bring these along to use as in-camp shoes on my next trip into the mountains. They\u2019re light enough to strap onto the outside of my backpack, sturdy enough to wear around camp, and the added cushion will help my feet recover after a long day of hiking.<\/p>\n For outdoor adventurers pushing the limits of their open-toed shoes, the Cairn Evo C Sandals<\/a> from Bedrock are an obvious choice. The lightweight yet supportive design is what ultimately convinced me to ditch my Chacos. As someone whose feet appreciate a little more cushion, I was sold on the plush footbed of the Evo Cs.\u00a0<\/p>\n One big factor that I can\u2019t speak to quite yet is how their durability compares to Chacos over the lifetime of the sandal. I wore one pair of (hand-me-down!) Chacos almost year-round for about 4 years, and only then was the heel strap starting to fray. <\/p>\n I\u2019ll be curious to see how the Vibram XS Trek EVO outsoles hold up season after season, especially since Bedrock claims they are \u201cultra-durable.\u201d Similar to Chacos, the sandals are also resolable, to extend their lifespan even after heavy use.\u00a0<\/p>\n For now, the combination of performance, comfort, and weight takes them up a notch from any other adventure sandal I\u2019ve owned. And while no open-toed shoe can truly replace an approach shoe, I was blown away by just how well they performed on approaches and descents to climbs with moderate scrambling. I\u2019m looking forward to letting my toes see the light of day in my Bedrock Cairn Evo C Sandals. <\/p>\n Whether you need footwear that can keep up with your hiking boots, a set to slide into after a strenuous climb, or just an everyday sandal, we’ve got your feet covered.
