with the kind direction of barefoot ted and some scrap leather and rubber, i made these huaraches
based on the indigenous design of the rarámuri (tarahumara) — some of the greatest people and runners of the world.
in canyons of northern méxico, in shoes similar to these, the rarámuri practice the art of distance running.
sometimes running for days on end, sometimes running deer down to exhaustion,
most often running with joy, love, and compassion.
