Bootee M

The Bootee M was the first pair of barefoot footwear I have had and my first order from Freet. I have since bought the Nimbus and Connect 3 and put in an order for the Esk today. Having only worn these twice since ordering them, I had to wait and wear them more before I could give a review. As it has dropped back into Winter, I have donned these boots the last three days. The more I wear them the more comfortable they get. They are certainly snug and that took a bit of getting use to, but now I like this snug fit. The are very comfortable. I like the thicker and softer ankle collar, which wraps round the ankle, giving that extra warmth and protection from the ice cold wind. The tongue, same as with my Connect 3, stays in place once laced up and is lovely and soft on the foot, as well as keeping any cold that might other wise get in, out, due to the tongue being sewn right up. This also keeps out any debris, making the boot even more cosy and increasing the snugness felt when wearing them. My feet and toes keep a comfortable, natural warmth. When it was hotter, my feet did not overheat in these. It is really cold and wet today and without socks (which I hate) my feet were remained at just the right warmth. So far so good. However, were I to buy another pair of these, I would go another size up, making it two sizes up. The reason is due to the width. I would like in a snugger fit a bit more width. Perhaps Freet could consider adding a few more mms with a more snug fitting shoe. Another suggestion: Perhaps Freet could consider, as with another barefoot brand, adding a choice of width with some of its shoes and boots. This along with some brighter colours, such as red and yellow. That aside, this boot is now a lovely fit in which the comfort improves with wear. I haven't worn them yet on the trail, but they certainly held well on some muddy areas and wet ground today. So these Bootee's, along with my Connect 3 ( super comfortable, with a very good grip, even on wet grass when on an incline) and my Nimbus are just perfect and a gift to my feet.

Dear Freet People, I received my Bootee Ms last week - the second purchase I have made from Freet. They are going to be my midway between stout, heavy leather boots and my summer Pace shoes. They couldn't be more perfect if I had sent you my feet in the post. Small feet, high arch, nearly as wide as they are long - REALLY difficult to fit. On the recommendation of your website, I did go up a size to a UK5. They are probably more roomy at the toe than I would normally choose, but thicker socks are always an option. Worth every penny to feel comfort in every step from the moment you put them on. Best wishes, Philippa Roberts
