“I love Bared use of hardware in their shoes. Auk was sufficiently blingy with a punk rock vibe. In the end I sent them back because the strap layout was not as flattering on my feet as another pair that I bought.”

“I tried these shoes on at Bared store, so really thought that the fit would be perfect. After wearing them a few times though, I have realised that the straps are way too wide and my foot slides around when I walk. Very disappointing!”
Hi there,
We're so sorry to hear that the Auk are feeling too roomy, and not secure on the foot. Our lovely customer service team has reached out to you to assist with this pair. Feel free to call us back on +613 9509 5771, or email us at info@baredfootwear.com if you're happy to chat further.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Warm regards,

“I literally scoured the internet for over a year looking for the perfect black leather sandal with bold silver hardware, and I’m so glad I finally took the plunge with the Auk Black Leather & Hardware Sandals from Bared Footwear.
I’m based in New Zealand, so I wasn’t able to try them on first and relied purely on reviews...and I honestly couldn’t be happier. They are absolutely gorgeous in real life. The silver hardware is bold, high-quality, and elevates the shoe, meaning they work just as well casually as they do for a summer dinner with a great outfit.
I have narrow feet, and shoes are often too loose on me, so the adjustable strap is a total game-changer. I can contour the fit perfectly to my foot - but equally, I can see how these would work beautifully for a range of foot widths, which is rare.
Comfortable, stylish, versatile, and beautifully made. I couldn’t recommend them more. I’ve already ordered another pair from Bared, and I’m very much looking forward to seeing what’s released in 2026, I’ll definitely be back for more.”
