Sometimes we receive an e mail which makes us both humble as well as happy.A customer sent us this beautiful drawing of the Freet Connect shoes.Drawing and walking were part of her journey towards recovery from cancer and all the challenges it entails. “𝗜 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗲𝗱 “𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱” 𝗺𝗲 – 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗼.

Feldom, one of our new styles, should help you negotiate the toughest trail/off track conditions.

Really enjoying these shoes! They are really well made and the groundfeel in them is perfect – I can feel every detail, but they’re not uncomfortable to wear on road/pavement. Very comfortable on long walks in different terrains and the grip is good as well.
I have very wide, but short feet, and these shoes have the best width that I’ve come across yet in barefoot shoes. I found that with the insoles in they were slightly too snug, but without it perfect. My feet have plenty of room and I have no pain in my feet, which I do with normal shoes. The sizing is slightly odd – I’m normally a 38, a 39 in barefoot shoes in other brands, but in these I have a forty. But as long as you properly read the sizing chart you’re fine. Thoroughly pleased, and am looking forward to wearing them more. Sarah A.

Three new styles arrive; Ibex, Tundra, Feldom. All featuring our new HillGrip outsole designed for more grip on tougher terrain.

Apologies for the delay – transporting product from our factory has been a challenge this year, but our warehouse should receive on 5th October and be able to ship out about 7th October.

Thanks for your patience.

Recent comment about Tanga:

‘Just wanted to share my experience of the Freet Tanga shoes. Obviously my belief is going barefoot is best but if you need a shoe this one is honestly everything I would ever wish for! It’s probably best described as a summer shoe but I tested it out even in the wettest Welsh weather and it performed fantastic on tarmac, gravel, rock and smooth wet concrete. It’s vegan friendly and made from recycled coffee beans! Now the summer seems to be here they are really coming into their own as they are so breathable, absolutely no sweaty shoe smell that has been an issue for some in the past! It has incredible flex and is lovely and wide for a good toe spread but does not have that clown shoe look! Around the ankle and top of the foot you are held in snuggly like a sock so I presume it would also suit a narrow foot as well but cannot confirm this. I have lived in them for about 2 months and they are my go to foot covering.  I have tried a lot of Freet shoes and these are definitely, in my opinion, the best shoe they have released!’
