Barefoot Shoes
What is a barefoot (minimalist) shoe?
Barefoot shoes mimic being barefoot while providing protection. They feature a zero-drop, thin, flexible sole and a wide, foot-shaped toe box—allowing natural movement and proper toe splay
Are barefoot shoes comfortable right away?
Yes—but with a caveat. The wide toe space offers instant comfort, but your feet may need a gradual transition. Most users notice ease after 3–4 weeks, as muscles adapt
Do barefoot shoes support my arches?
They don’t include built-in arch support by design. Instead, they strengthen your intrinsic foot muscles naturally, helping your arches support you—though those with specific conditions should consult a healthcare provider
Can I use them for running or trail activities?
Yes, for those who transition carefully. Foot strike shifts to mid/forefoot, reducing impact forces—but starting slowly and building strength over time is key
Will barefoot shoes help foot pain like bunions or plantar fasciitis?
Definitely possible! The wide toe box gives toes room to realign, and muscle engagement can reduce joint stress and heel pain. Many users report relief from bunions and plantar fasciitis.

Sizing
I'm a half size. What should I choose?
If you're a half size, we recommend sizing down. Rewild shoes are designed to give you a barefoot feel with light protection. The flexible upper adapts to your foot over time for a more personalized fit.
Will my orthotics fit?
Yes! Our insoles are removable, so if you wear orthotics, you can easily replace them with your own.
Do you offer wide or narrow sizes?
At this time, Rewild shoes come in standard widths. However, our flexible upper adapts well to many foot shapes.
- wider feet, stick with your regular size
- narrow feet, consider sizing down for a snugger fit
Will they stretch?
Yes. Rewild shoes are designed to mold to your feet. If they feel slightly snug at first, wear them a few times — they’ll soften and adjust for a custom feel.
