A few questions we hear a lot

Will they hurt at first?

A little muscle soreness in the first couple of weeks is normal - it's a sign your feet are adapting and getting stronger. If something feels sharp or doesn't ease up, just slow the transition down a bit. There's genuinely no rush.

How different do they feel from regular shoes?

Noticeably different - but in a good way. More room, more ground feel, and a sense that your feet are actually doing something. Most people find it feels surprisingly natural from the very first wear.

Are barefoot shoes good for running?

Yes - but take it gradually. Start by walking in them, then introduce short runs and build up slowly. Many runners find that once they've made the transition, they wouldn't go back - better ground feel, a more natural stride, and less impact on the joints.

Can I wear barefoot shoes in winter?


Absolutely. Several brands in our range offer insulated and lined boots that hold up well against the classic British winter - waterproof options included. Have a look at our Boots collection for cold-weather styles that don't compromise on the barefoot feel. Want to know more about how it all works? Read our guide: Warm Winter in Barefoot Shoes

How long does it take to get used to barefoot shoes?

It really depends on the person, but as a rough guide most people feel genuinely comfortable after 4–6 weeks of gradual wear.
The key word is gradual. Start with an hour or two a day and slowly build up. The more patiently you approach it, the smoother the transition tends to be.

Do I need special socks?

Regular socks work perfectly fine. But if you'd like to take it a step further, toe socks - like the ones from Knitido in our range - let each toe move independently and genuinely enhance the whole barefoot experience. Curious about the difference? Have a read: Toe Socks vs Regular Socks.
