Production methods

All production is 100% handmade, 1 craftsman can make 20 pairs per day. Each pair of shoes takes 4 days from start to finish.
1. The cutting of the leathers is performed with special handmade cutting molds and each size has its own molds.
2. The leather is sewn to create the hems and to connect it to the different layers.
3. The shoes are then put in the oven for 15 minutes at 80 °
4. The leather sole is inserted and sewn together with the midsole.
5. For those who require rubber, this is glued under the buffalo leather.

Precautions

These shoes are natural and not chemically treated, they guarantee better breathability and softness as they are used, gradually taking on the shape of the foot. It will be normal to feel them stiff immediately but it will be just for few days. Wetting the leather, it absorbs the water (which is normal for untreated leathers that guarantee transpiration) but it will be easy to dry. It is recommended not to stay too wet with this shoes to make the product live longer. they must fit wider than the measurement of the foot, about 0.5/0.8cm more than your feet size since physiologically the foot lengthens in movement with each step.

It is not recommended to wear them not with tight, elastic stockings but with toe socks, wide in front, or in natural material. You can also use them without socks when the product has adapted to the foot.
Clean them with water and polish them (brush it for nubuck leather).

Using grease cream will make the leather more waterproof but less breathable.. (is yours choice).
These shoes last over time if the foot resumes its natural movement and does not stress the shoe too much.

Keep the sole checked for any wear so that it can be resolved with new rubber or leather that can easily stick from any specialized craftsman. You can buy the sole to restore directly on this site.

The shoes of our production created manually by craftsmen and tested to ensure the maximum functional benefits that these shoes must have. Natural materials selected for a lower environmental impact and greater eco-sustainability

Sizing & Fitting

Barefoot shoes must have space for the foot to move.
We have been too used to constricting, closed shoes and obviously the foot inside could not move and was forced to make wrong movements. This is why we always bought shoes that fit the right way to avoid the risk of blisters.
On the other hand, when the foot is no longer blocked, it can finally open and adapt to different demands and conditions of movement. Physiologically, the toes must be widened, so the use of wide non-elastic socks is recommended.
they can also be used without socks thanks to the natural materials they are made of and the fact that the feet have freedom of movement.

To choose the correct number, make sure you measure your foot (the longest one if they are different) by placing your heel against the wall and marking with a pen on the ground where the longest toe arrives. Now with a ruler measure the length in cm from the wall to the mark. This is your static foot length.

Given that during the movement the foot physiologically lengthens, in addition it could also gain a few mm over time (especially those new to these shoes) option to buy at least 0.5 0.8 cm more than the measure just detected.

for example my foot is 26.4 cm long, the n 40 (26.5) would be very risky, therefore the 41 (27.1cm) would be ideal and recommended. Initially you will feel it wide but trust that in a short time that space will be filled by your foot that finds its natural space.
