Where to Buy the Sand Boots
To obtain the Sand Boots, start by traveling to Gerudo Town, and when you arrive, you'll need to sneak into the Gerudo Secret Club. As the name implies, the Gerudo Secret Club is a hidden shop that is the only place in Gerudo Town that sells Voe attire. The Sand Boots can be purchased here for 1200 Rupees!

How to Enter the Gerudo Secret Club
- Gerudo Shelter Entrance Coordinates: -3792, -2903, 0043
When you reach Gerudo Town, head toward the eastern end of the central area, where you'll spot several abandoned storefronts. Search for the stained-glass-covered chute and drop into it to reach the Gerudo Shelter Entrance. As you follow the stream, you'll almost immediately notice a rock wall to your left that can be destroyed. Break the stones to reveal a hidden passage, and at the end of the path, destroy the stones on the left and climb up the ledge.
Once atop the ledge, take another left until you reach the dry area pictured on the right. From here, use Ascend to infiltrate the Gerudo Secret Club. Although you'll get spotted by the shopowners, you won't be arrested or banished because Link is their target clientele.
After infiltrating the shop, the shopowner Greta will unlock the main entrance, so you won't need to take this long route again. The main entrance to the shop is an unmarked wooden door found on the eastern end of Gerudo Town.
