IF YOU ARE NEW TO BAREFOOT SHOES OR TO FREET, HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FIRST.
Barefoot shoes simply help you move a little more like nature intended. We all like to kick our shoes off when we get home, barefoot shoes just allow you to have this great feeling whatever you are up to – day to day activities or sport, walking or running.
We make 2 styles of shoes, 4+1 ‘split-toe’ and 5in1 ‘toes together’. Our 4+1 split toe shoes have a separate pocket for the big toe which gives a little more ‘glove-like’ feel, whilst our 5in1 shoes have all toes together, like traditional shoes. Both styles will achieve the same ‘barefoot-like’ result and tend to be worn interchangeably. Largely it’s a matter of personal preference!
Sometimes we might want or need to move on a harder suface or for a longer time/distance and for this we use a thin layer of advanced shock absorbing material such as PORON. This does not affect the ‘barefoot-like’ nature of the shoe, but can prevent the foot soreness which you can get with such harder use.
