What are barefoot shoes?

Barefoot shoes are shoes that are designed to simulate the feeling of walking barefoot while protecting the foot from injuries caused by stones, sharp-edged objects or rough surfaces. To do this, barefoot shoes are designed to be as minimalist as possible so that the focus is on the unrestricted barefoot experience. The sole of our barefoot shoes is very thin and highly flexible. This allows it to adapt to the surface and transmit sensory stimuli unfiltered to our nervous system.

More health thanks to the most natural way of walking in the world 

Walking barefoot has many health advantages and is the natural way to move: Our ancestors walked barefoot, some primitive peoples still do, and everyone is born barefoot. With 26 bones, muscles and tendons, our feet are made for walking barefoot. Walking in shoes, on the other hand, uses very few foot muscles. The reason for this is the stiff sole of the shoe - like a plaster cast - which restricts the foot and prevents it from moving. This often leads to muscle problems. A fact that few people question. The solution: barefoot to better health. 

These are the advantages of our barefoot shoes

Our barefoot shoes have several advantages over conventional shoes. Thanks to years of development, everyone can experience the barefoot feeling as authentically as possible. The comfort and protection of your feet is always at the forefront of our material and design choices. Our shoes are made in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, directly in our barefoot shoe factory: Made in Germany.

Ergonomic design inspired by nature 

Our feet are a marvel. Numerous bones, muscles and tendons ensure that we can walk, jump and perform at our best every day. We need our feet to be as flexible as possible to adapt to the different surfaces we move on every day. 

Our shoes have been designed with a toe box that does not squeeze any of the toes. This allows our feet to spread out inside the shoe. The result is healthy, fanned out toes - a completely natural toe spread. This helps to prevent a misalignment of the big toe joint (hallux valgus), which affects one in three people over the age of 65. 

Tips for getting started with barefoot walking 

If you want to switch from conventional shoes to barefoot shoes, you should start slowly and walk short distances. The foot has to adjust to the new freedom of the toes and direct contact with the ground. Many people get sore feet at first as the foot muscles need to rebuild. Walking distances can be increased slowly. The benefits of barefoot walking will become apparent after a short time.
