“I love this brand so I wanted to love this shoe, but it the most uncomfortable sandal I have worn. It looks beautiful, but the top part of the shoe has left lacerations in my feet every time I’ve tried to wear them. Even if I use tape or bandaids, it rubs them off. There is too much friction created between the shoe and foot, it is a poor design. I tried multiple different tightness settings, all the same, even though the shoe fits me perfectly. I took these to Italy for the summer and they are unwearable.”

“I have Plantar fasciitis and metatarsalgia and these sandals are really comfortable. The heal especially has lots of padding. I like that you can adjust the straps in front.”
“Love the comfort and style of the shoe. I am disappointed in the quality of the leather. A small amount of water splashed on the shoes from a sink. They were immediately wiped down, yet water bumps/blisters immediately formed. Over the course of a couple days they improved, but are still noticeable on the smooth leather, almost like drained blisters. I understand they are not waterproof, but I’ve never had a small splash of water that was instantly removed damage any previous leather products. This should not happen with the price point of the shoes.”
Hi Austin,
We’re glad you love the comfort and style of the Lari sandals!
However, we’re truly sorry to hear about the issue with the leather after a water splash. Leather can sometimes be sensitive, and while we aim for high-quality materials, we understand your frustration. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our customers, especially at this price point.
If you’d like to discuss this further or see what options might be available, please feel free to reach out at info@baredfootwear.com or call us at 03 9509 5771. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
Warm regards,

“These look nice and fit comfortably but the leather feels like it has a kind of plastic coating on it. Even after two months cannot wear them without about four Bandaids because they rub to blisters so quickly.
This was my fourth pair of bared shoes and the leather quality feels markedly lower so it’s likely to be my last.”

“I have purchased many pairs of Bared shoes and found their quality and comfort next level amazing, requiring little to no break in time. I wear all my shoes to death, walk in them all day and love them. It really disappoints me to say this but the Lari shoe has been the most uncomfortable shoe I have purchased from Bared. I was fitted correctly in store and the fit is correct, but the straps have given my upper foot blisters every time I have worn them. I purchased them over two months ago now and I still can only wear them lightly for short periods of time. I have spoken with customer support who were very helpful and provided me with gel spots and a stretch spray, neither of which have helped. Regretful purchase and not what I expected to purchase from Bared.”
