Here's why walking in barefoot shoes is so healthy
According to orthopaedists, walking barefoot is the most natural and healthy gait we have. We've walked without shoes for thousands of years — it's simply in our nature to move this way. Barefoot walking restores your innate gait pattern, strengthening the muscles and joints that conventional shoes have weakened.
Barefoot shoes can make the change
Our environment makes walking in bare feet difficult. No one wants to walk barefoot on tarmac roads and dirty streets — and that's exactly where our barefoot shoes come in. Stiff shoes weaken your foot muscles and can lead to misalignment, knee, back, and hip pain. Barefoot shoes are the best choice to reduce foot misalignment and discomfort.
It feels like a walk in the meadow
Imagine it's summer, you're walking barefoot across a meadow and feel the grass under your feet — what a liberating feeling! The Explorer was created to give you exactly that sensation. A shoe that's neither too thick nor too thin. Enjoy maximum freedom of movement for a walk like on clouds, whilst also easing muscle tension and foot discomfort.
Be part of the barefoot revolution
Don't just take our word for it — listen to the experts and over 35,000 satisfied UK customers! Our customers enjoy their barefoot shoes for everyday use, for work, and for outdoor adventures, with unmatched comfort and support.
30-day wear test with money-back guarantee
We believe in our product — and we don't want you to spend a penny until you're 100% certain it works for you. That's why we offer a 30-day, no-questions-asked guarantee. If they don't work out, we'll issue an immediate refund. You only pay if the shoes turn out to be a complete lifesaver.

This is why walking in barefoot shoes is so healthy
According to orthopaedists, walking barefoot is the most natural and healthiest way to walk humans have. We were all born without shoes and have walked without shoes for thousands of years. It's in our nature to walk without shoes.
Barefoot shoes can make all the difference
Our environment makes walking in bare feet difficult. No one wants to walk barefoot on tarmac roads and dirty streets. That’s why so many of us end up wearing stiff shoes — and stiff shoes have their disadvantages.
Stiff shoes weaken the foot muscles, and leads to foot misalignment; knee, back, and hip pain. Barefoot shoes are the best choice to reduce foot misalignment and pain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Insoles can help you transition from standard shoes to minimalist ones, as switching too quickly while your feet are still adjusting to natural movement can cause discomfort.
They can also further insulate from the cold, and are normally still more flexible than standard thick soled shoes.
Our barefoot shoes are delivered with a thin sole that can be taken out if needed. Most customers wear the shoes with the insole first and after a while they take it out.
We also sell additional insoles in our store, in case you need another thicker insole.
The word "barefoot shoe" refers to the fact that the shoe's wide shape and light, flexible material give you a walking sensation that comes close to barefoot running.
Whether you wear the shoe with or without socks is a matter of taste.
Most customers wear our barefoot shoes with socks.
Are you in between two sizes? If you have a wider foot, we recommend you to choose one size larger. If the shoes still do not fit, your purchase is covered by our 30-day money back guarantee.
Walking with natural bare feet is not as safe as walking in barefoot shoes, especially in cold weather.
Of course, standing around for long periods with frozen feet on a wet and cold surface is not recommended. Also, your soles are exposed to sharp objects on the street when you walk with bare feet.
Many dangers come with walking with natural bare feet, and that's why barefoot shoes have been created to give you the experience of walking with bare feet without realistically walking barefooted.
