“Hallo,
dies ist mein erster Barfuß Schuh. Die Verarbeitung ist gut. Ich trage diesen seit einigen Wochen und bin wirklich begeistert. Mein Gehen hat sich durch das intensive Fühlen des Untergrundes verändert. Ich finde man läuft achtsamer (achtet viel mehr darauf woher und wie man geht).
Die breite Zehenbox ist eine Wohltat und meinen Füßen gefällt das sehr.
Nur wenn es zu heiß draußen ist (30 Grad) muss ich Socken tragen da ich sonst darin schwitze (also zu viel und das ist unangenehm weil ich auf der Arbeit dann feuchte Füße habe).
Durch diese Erfahrung ist mir klar: Das ist mein erster Barfuß Schuh von vielen die Folgen werden. Möchte das nur noch so.
Freundliche Grüße”

“It is my first barefoot shoes purchase. They look simple and nice, and all other barefoot models I saw and tried looked not authentically nice to me.
But I'm not totally convinced, I think I made a mistake with the size and should've bought a bigger size since my toes touch the front of the shoes when I walk.
Either it is because of the size or because this model can't be fixed very well on a foot.”
Dear Liudmyla,
Thank you for reviewing the Droptop Knit - All Black.
We're sorry to hear that your shoes are not fitting as expected, especially considering that you're otherwise very happy with them.
While barefoot shoes are designed to allow a natural movement of the feet, they should still provide a secure fit. If your toes are touching the front of the shoes when you walk, it does indeed sound like a sizing issue.
We generally recommend leaving 5 to 12 mm of wiggle room between your longest toe and the inner end of the shoe. Since shoe sizes are not standardized in the footwear industry and therefore vary from brand to brand, we highly we recommend double-checking with our sizing info at feelgrounds.com/sizing before ordering. Here you can find the exact measurements of our shoes and instructions on how to measure your feet and compare. We even have a printable Size Guide PDF to step on. You are welcome to send us pictures of your feet on our Size Guide PDF at feelgrounds.com/contact to double-check. We're happy to take a look.
If the sizing seems ok, but your toes are still touching the front of the shoes while walking, it might be that this particular model is not the best match for your feet. Since our Droptop model doesn't have any laces, it can't be adjusted as individually around the instep as our other sneaker models with laces can (e.g. Original, Highrise, Courtside). If your instep is very low, you might slide to the front of the shoes when walking. In this case, we can highly recommend an additional insole (e.g. those available in our accessories section) to improve the fit of your Droptop.
Additional insoles, are especially well-loved by barefoot shoe beginners since they provide a little extra cushioning to make the transition to minimalist footwear easier.
Should you have any additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to write us a message at feelgrounds.com/contact.
Best regards,
Nina

“Dieser Schuh ist mein 2. Paar von Feelgrounds. Ich habe auch seit Anfang an den ORIGINAL MESH.
Der Schuh passt perfekt. Er ist leicht und die flexible Sohle typisch Barefootshoe flexibel. So wie beim ORIGINAL MESH gehe ich von einer sehr langen Haltbarkeit aus.
Super finde ich, dass man die Schuhe bei kurzer, sanfter Wäsche in der Waschmaschine waschen kann.
Ich kann in den DROPTOP bequäm ohne Schuhlöffel rein schlüpfen. Er sitzt sehr gut am Fuß, sodass ich beim Gehen nicht rausrutsche.
Absolute Kaufempfehlung!”
