Freet Barefoot

Freet is a British barefoot shoe brand founded in 2012 and based in the UK. The brand focuses on making affordable, functional barefoot shoes for everyday activities, running, and hiking. Freet keeps things simple — no flashy marketing, just well-made minimalist footwear.

Philosophy

Freet designs shoes that let feet move naturally while providing enough protection for real-world use. Their soles are thin but durable, toe boxes are wide, and every shoe is zero drop. The brand emphasizes practical barefoot function at accessible prices.

Product Range

• Running — Leap for road and light trail
• Hiking — Talus for serious trail use
• Casual — Flex, Tanga for everyday wear
• Kids — Flex Junior for children

What Sets Freet Apart

Value and durability. Freet shoes are priced at $60-100, well below Vivobarefoot or Wildling, but the build quality holds up. The Talus hiking shoe in particular has a loyal following among UK hikers for its grip and longevity on wet British terrain.

Being UK-based, Freet ships quickly within Europe and the UK. US shipping takes longer but the brand has grown its North American customer base steadily.

Who Chooses Freet

UK and European buyers looking for local barefoot brands. Hikers who want affordable zero drop trail shoes. Parents seeking quality kids' barefoot shoes without premium pricing. People who prefer understated designs that focus on function.
