These are sandals built for live music, travel, and life’s adventures.”
The men’s Reverb sandal features pebbled full-grain leather, embroidered Stealie patch detailing, memory foam-lined straps, and Hari Mari’s patented MemoryFoamToe™ post for immediate comfort with no break-in period. Real rubber outsoles and cupped heels provide added traction and support, while waterproof leather construction ensures versatility for wherever the day—or the music—takes you.
The women’s Daydreamer sandal pairs buttery-soft pebbled leather with embroidered Dancing Bears patch details, combining playful Grateful Dead iconography with elevated materials and all-day comfort. Memory foam-lined straps, arch support, and Hari Mari’s signature MemoryFoamToe™ construction create a sandal designed for effortless wear from festival weekends to beach days and beyond.
“This collection captures the timelessness and creativity that have always defined the Grateful Dead,” Stewart added. “It’s nostalgic without feeling dated, premium without feeling pretentious, and designed to be worn often and enjoyed for years.”

ABOUT GRATEFUL DEAD
The Grateful Dead is a social and musical phenomenon that grew into a genuine American. treasure. In 1965, an entire generation was linked together by common ideals, gathering by the hundreds and thousands. This movement created a seamless connection between the band and its fans. As the band toured, Dead Heads would follow. Not because it was a part of popular culture but because it is a true counterculture that exists to this very day–one that earnestly believes in the value of its beliefs.
By 1995, the Grateful Dead had attracted the most concertgoers in the history of the music business, and today remains one of the all-time leaders in concert ticket sales. Eventually, the caravan evolved into a community with various artists, craftsmen and entrepreneurs supplying a growing demand for merchandise that connected them to the music with their final tally being 2,318 total concerts.
The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and received a Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007, commemorated in the 47th class of the Kennedy Center Honorees, as well as the 2025 MusiCares Persons of the Year honored at the 67th Annual GRAMMY® Awards. The Grateful Dead celebrated their 66th Top 40 album on the Billboard chart—a feat no other artist has achieved—claiming the Guinness World Records title for the most Top 40 albums charted on the US Billboard 200.
