Inspired by the traditional footwear worn by European fishermen, this sandal features wide woven leather straps that securely wrap and support the foot.

Crafted from a single piece of thick, resilient leather, it's built on a wide last that offers a relaxed fit—perfect for wearing with socks as well. The sole is made with durable Vibram rubber, designed for longevity and dependable comfort through years of wear.

With summers getting longer each year, BROTHER BRIDGE hopes this becomes your go-to pair to enjoy the season in style.

Introduction to Fisherman Sandals
Fisherman sandals originated in the Mediterranean region of Europe, traditionally worn by fishermen for their practical blend of protection and breathability. Characterized by closed toes and a woven strap structure, they offer secure coverage while allowing airflow and quick drying—perfect for hot, humid environments. Over time, this functional design has evolved into a timeless summer staple that balances utility with classic style.

Brother Bridge Custom Cow Hide
This sandal uses oil-tanned leather produced by one of Japan’s top-tier pit-tanning tanneries.

Pit tanning with vegetable tannins is a rare and traditional method practiced by only a few companies in Japan. Compared to drum tanning, the resulting leather has a denser fiber structure and absorbs more tannins, making it exceptionally durable while allowing for a rich and beautiful patina to develop over time.

Sizing Recommendation
We recommend choosing the same size as your US boots, or going down by half a size if you prefer a more fitted experience. (Or if you have a narrow/shorter footbed.)

*One full size down from your sneakers.

For example,
