About FreeWaters

The story of FreeWaters sandals and footwear starts with a friendship formed in 1997 between Martin Kim and Eli Marmar at the Art Center College of Design in California. After ten years of designing snowboard boots and wetsuits, both Eli and Martin set up shop in San Francisco to create a line of footwear that embodies the California style free spirit and positive vibes. With such design inspirations becoming reality at the solar powered 'Shaolin Temple,' nestled in the redwoods - the FreeWaters design studio is where designers Martin and Eli take their inspirations and overcome the other loveless shoe sellers out there trying to sell outdated styles with cheap construction and toxic materials like PVC.
