This shoe fits true to size
The best guide for sizing your new Freet shoes is to start with your usual shoe size. Think about whether you always take this size or whether you sometimes need to go smaller or larger.
Customer feedback is that this style fits true to size; so order your normal size.
Our shoes are originally produced in EU sizes. All UK sizes are the closest conversion so, if you know your EU size, you may want to consider using this.
Measuring Your Foot
Sometimes as a second check it is worth measuring your foot. Feet can be different sizes so its worth measuring both and taking the largest.
Standing next to a wall place a piece of paper against the wall. Place your foot on the paper with your heel just touching the wall.
- The next stage is easier if you get someone else to help do it.
- Take a pencil or pen and trace the outline of the foot on the paper.
- Start at the heel.
- Keep the pen at 90 degrees to the paper, so vertical, see diagram.
- Don't draw under the foot.
If possible, please work from the EU sizes (the US and UK sizes are nearest conversions to these sizes so will not be as accurate). The lengths and widths are the dimensions of the insole in mm measured as per the picture below:

I really like the aesthetic. They are a great looking shoe. I have been using Xero for a while, but wanted something that looked like a more natural leather. I was a little surprised that they were more minimalist and actually took some conditioning to be able to wear long days. That’s not a complaint, just an observation and something someone should know. I do believe they were sized slightly under what I’m used to.
Very comfortable and well made. I've been wearing barefoot shoes exclusively for years, and Freet is one of my favourite brands.
Cómodas, calentitas....la única pega es que me las compré u poco grandes (error mio) y no me acaban de ajustar bie al pie.
I have a pair of Freet sports shoes and can’t take them off- they are sooo comfy. I tried about 15 pairs of different barefoot shoes from different brand and the ones i chose were Freet Tanga. Heavenly!
I ordered Richmond online but when they arrived didn’t find them comfortable as my instep was rubbing uncomfortably on the shoe tongue. Returned them simply and got money back immediately. Will try another pair- my husband bought York and I love the feel!
First pair of Freet I have bought. I love the Richmond shoes! Instantly comfortable. Am confident they’ll be durable. Will most definitely be a repeat customer.
