“Wanted to like these. Nice style & decent materials, however these are more akin to “minimalist shoes” and not barefoot. They’d be more useful for a transitional shoe going into barefoot. And since I’d already been wearing BF for years these constricted my toes and actually had them going numb. Recommend another brand.”
Thank you for sharing your experience.
We understand that the fit didn’t work for you and that your toes felt constricted. Groundies are designed to provide a barefoot experience, while also welcoming those who are new to barefoot shoes – what we sometimes call a “transitional” fit. That said, fit can vary depending on your previous barefoot experience and individual foot shape.
Feedback like yours is incredibly valuable as we continue improving how we describe our shoes and guide customers in choosing the right pair. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
All the best – Stay grounded.
Your Groundies Team
