Indosole is proud to announce a big step in our small backyard of San Francisco. We have grown our operation from the grassroots of a home based office and backyard shed, to a real-deal office/warehouse space in the heart of San Francisco's surf community.

In partnership with San Franpsycho, we have opened a retail shop offering apparel, jewelry, accessories, and of course Indosole footwear. With 2500 sq. feet of workspace, we are also running our warehouse and HQ at this location.

3830 Noriega St. has been the long-time home of a Korean Church. The building itself holds a special charm and warmth that has changed hands to our handsome/beautiful crew and we have re-branded it as "The Church of Surf."

Please stop by and say hi and pick up a San Franpsycho T-shirt and some new kicks!

A collaboration with Robert Weiner of Robert's Surfboards

robert We are stoked to announce that Indosole is doing a collaboration with Surfing Magazines 2011 shaper of the year Robert Weiner of Roberts surfboards. We met up with him the other day and not only is he one of the best shapers in the world, he is an all around awesome guy and completely shreds on a surfboard. Roberts has been pushing surf technology since the early 90’s and has shaped boards for people like Torrey Meister, recent winner of the Coldwater Classic, to WCT guys like Jordy Smith. Roberts is best known for his board he created in 2008, the white diamond. This board is a little shorter and wider than your standard short board and Robert added a diamond tail for more release and tighter turns. This design gave a small wave board more high performance ability.  The white diamond really started receiving attention on a Surfer Magazine Design Forum and has accumulated over 180,000 views and over 2,000 comments making it the most viewed and discussed forum in the world. Keep an eye out for Indosole special edition Roberts Sandal that will be coming out soon! Also, if you want to take your surfing to the next level, we recommend testing out a White Diamond or one of Roberts other amazing creations. Here’s a picture of Robert shaping his newest creation the “dream catcher” while rocking our black boat shoes.  

Meet Your Makers

Group Photo Indonesia is a mecca for talented craftspeople, and the Balinese people are some of the best in the world at working with their hands. Their top export is handmade furniture and arts and crafts, yet despite a highly skilled workforce, Bali is not known for footwear production. In fact, the Indosole factory may be the only commercial shoe manufacturer on the island. Since 2010, Indosole has employed over 20 full time Balinese and Javanese artisans to help craft Indosole shoes. They are an awesome group of people with a ton of talent, and even bigger hearts - they’re the rock of our operation, and we couldn’t do it without them. Here’s to our crew, and a product that is looking better and better every day! IndoHat

A word from Mary, with Klean Kanteen

Email from Good Human, Mary Osbourne with Klean kanteen   "Dear Sponsors and Friends- Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful fall weather. I wanted to share a fun upcoming print advertisement.  I just got word that I am in the new Klean Kanteen advertisement that supports 1% for the Planet, and the 5 Gyres team.  This photo was shot while on a 33 day expedition with the 5 Gyres crew. Our talented team of scientists and environmentalists were one of the first boats to explore the South Atlantic gyre system. I hope you enjoyed seeing this as much as I did. Thank you for all your continued support! Cheers, Mary Osborne www.maryosbornesurf.com`"
