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.
