Flex Junior

There are a lot of great things about these shoes. Unfortunately the upper inside of the shoes got holes within 3 times of wearing them and it continued to progress significantly. We have tried lots of barefoot shoes and while they usually wear out, it's never been this fast. We let my son keep wearing them as play shoes for a few months and I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

My son was very happy with these shoes at first but they really didn't hold up. After about a month or 2 of use they started tearing (as can be seen in attached pictures). Even my previous 2 pairs of flex from freet held up better and I wear my shoes really hard.

That's my daughter's second pair. It's versatile and very comfortable. She even fine for bouldering as it has this extra rubber that protects the toes.

I've read some complaints about the upper material, but we've never had any such issues. Overall - a fantastic, affordable, sporty allrounder.

Back lip digs into child’s heels. gave her blisters and she refuses to wear them. I don’t blame her!

My 8 year old grandson loves them and says they are the most comfortable shoes he ever had.

I think they look great - I prefer the curvy sole to those on the newer (and adult) shoes. My daughter finds these easy to put on without adjusting the "laces", which she likes a lot. She also likes being able to feel the ground through them.

She loves climbing on anything (climbing walls, rocks, people) and she said these were good for getting her toes into toe-holds.

After about a week of having them she said to me "I just keep liking these shoes more and more". They're her everyday shoe now and she's had them for a couple of months. There's no visible wear yet but I obviously can't say how they will last longer term.

I completely ignored the UK sizing and just went from the measurements on the sizing guide. That seemed to work well.

It’s hard to find affordable barefoot shoes that look durable. My kid loves them. He has only had them for a couple of weeks and are in heavy rotation

I’m an adult who wears kid sizes. These are so much more comfortable right out of the box than my VivoBarefoot shoes, which take some breaking in to get the toe box wide enough.

Saguaro shoes are comfortable but material doesn’t feel supportive enough. Also, the kid colors/designs are wild… fun for hitting the trail but not a good look with jeans.

Fleet is the Goldilocks of shoes for me! Wide, grippy sole, support enough while soft and flexible and solid colors.

Now, if they would make one in black with a white sole, the shoe would be stylish enough to wear everywhere! The dark blue with white sole is ok but they were out of my size. Black on black makes me look like I’m heading to a food service job… practical but not stylish.

Love these shoes for trails, now just need a black version with white sole for everyday wear!

Just bought a second pair of the Flex Juniors for my almost 8-year-old. I was nervous at first that they weren't secure enough on his feet - they do fly off sometimes when he kicks a ball, but they still became his go to shoes. I think it's partly because of the slip-on convenience, but clearly he finds them comfortable. And though they started to rip around seams/develop a hole in the insole sooner than I would have liked, I will admit that my kid basically runs everywhere he goes like Forrest Gump and so probably subjects them to more wear than most. He kept happily wearing them until they were basically falling apart.

I'm an adult with size eu36 and the appearance and size is great, the soles are super light, grippy, mobile and the shoe itself slips on and off nicely.

But for me the back of the heel fangs oddly hard and high into the achilles in a way that's never not going to blister, and ideally my pinky toes would have just a smidge more space for when running. Also (very minor point) one of the laces was loose out of it's plastic doodad so I have returned them. I may try some other freets as this was tantalizingly close to perfect.

I was looking for a barefoot shoe for my first grader in the middle range of pricing. He requested something all black and not the standard velcro style you see in many barefoot brands. The Flex Junior checked all the boxes. They look sporty and also have the barefoot shape and flexibility I was looking for.

The shoes came quickly and my picky son appreciated the appearance and comfort. I would rate the style and quality at least as good as the name brand mainstream shoes in the same price range. There is already some wear and tear showing within two weeks but I predict these will still last long enough for little brother to wear next. I'm tempted to get the adult size for myself!

Perfect shoes for my son, he is very happy with them.

Bought these back in September, I LOVE THEM. Im an adult with tiny feet, soo I use them for workouts and day-city use. My feet are super comfy after an 8-hr shift on my feet, I like wearing them without insoles so I can flex my feet and balance on my toes. My foot length is 22.5cm, measured against a wall and Size 35 is a perfect fit. Only complain is I wish you guys made a classic all-white colour! It'd be wayy more stylish.

Bought two sizes of this model because the connect 2 were becoming small. The smallest size fitted well. The flex model indeed has a more generous fit and we love it! Toe spreading, minimal sole & ground feeling. The shoe looks strong/ solid so the only thing from now is to learn whether the shoe will stand the use and test of time with a lot of adventure and play! # happy healthy feet

Bought for my son Henry and he loves them. They look great and seem strong.
