“I wanted to love these but had too high expectations from the reviews. They are very rigid, uncomfortable, I’ve tried with inserts, without, and haven’t found any socks compatible with wear. I understand they may soften eventually and the foot support was recommended by my podiatrist, but they won’t be seeing me through many activities.”
Hi Johanna,
Thanks for taking the time to write a review, we appreciate your feedback.
We're sorry to hear the Thorntail is causing you some discomfort. It is certainly not what we want for you.
High-quality leather is used for all our shoes, however, it can be quite firm. We do this so that not only do the shoes retain their shape over time, but also help provide support and stability to your gait.
We do have some great fitting advice and tips to make the wearing in process comfier for you. We have tried to reach out to you about this and look forward to hearing back from you to ensure you get the most wear out of your new sneakers.
Kind Regards,
The Bared Team xx
“These were my first purchase from bared and I was not disappointed! These sneakers are amazing! So comfortable, stylish and go with absolutely everything! Definitely purchasing from bared again!!”
“These are great, comfy from the moment I put them on. The perfect white sneaker staple. I originally purchased the skua and the fit was not right for me. The Bared team helped me find the right ones and I was able to return the others no problems. I am such a fan of everything bared do.”
“Just received my Thorntails. This is my second pair of Bared sneakers, they are without peers.
Buying in white for summer, l love the gold star detail. These sneakers feel like your walking on clouds, instantly comfortable from the first wear.
Just love them”
“I really wanted to love these but since buying them with high hopes late last year I’ve only worn them 3 or 4 times because they have no grip whatsoever and I’m constantly slipping over because of that - almost face planted in the middle of the road one time which was scary. Looks nice but haven’t been able to wear them in properly so they’re not the most comfortable shoes.”

“I have Morton’s Neuroma in one of my feet. I love how these sneakers feel they are really comfortable even with my neuroma I been all day with them, after a long day my feet are still good no pain.”
“So I love them, super comfy and all, but... they scratch easily. I scratched them on the first day of having them which made my heart sink as they're not cheap :(”
