Customer Questions
Customer Questions
Will napa beige look different after a year of wear? Expect a light, even patina rather than dulling, since the color runs through the napa beige hide rather than sitting on top. Care guide.
Can I wear these to a casual work event? Yes, paired with chinos or tailored trousers they fit most casual or business-casual work events comfortably.
Should I wear thick socks during the break-in period? It can help initially, though most buyers find the full-grain leather softens quickly enough that it isn't necessary for long.
What's the adjustment period like coming from regular boots? Most people need one to two weeks of gradual wear before these feel like a natural, all-day option. barefoot transition guide.
Is it obvious when a boot has been resoled versus original? Usually only if you look closely at the welt stitching; a good resole blends in well with the original construction. Want more choices? Browse men barefoot shoes or barefoot boots men.

I've received complements on how they look. They feel amazing and I'm very happy with this purchase.
I wish there was something I could do about protecting my toes more. I do some activities where things might land on my feet and I don't need steel-toed shoes, just something more substantial than a thin layer of leather. This is an issue with all my zero-lift shoes so it's no different here and I'm sure it would add weight to the shoe that might not please everyone. Just an issue for me.
So comfy and I love the color. They were consistent with keeping me updated on my package and I love that the bag was personalized with my name. Just such a fun considerate detail!
The shoes are beautiful and came in a bag with my name on it, such a wonderful personal touch! These are very comfortable and appear to be very well made.
These shoes are amazing! So much better than I hoped. Arrived in 3 days from Turkey…and packaged in a great bag with my name on it! Thank you so much will definitely buy from again!
The sizing was a bit off for me. I had to size down. Also, the color was lighter than expected, but the seller let me exchange for a darker color and smaller size. Note that I measured as directed, but they were longer than I would normally want my shoes.
Look at size chart! They are beautiful sandals, but absolutely HUGE. I'm normally a size 40 (24.5x10) but I size down for sandals. These are comically enormous. I got a great deal and will resell them and continue my search for the perfect pair.
Such nice craftsmanship! I continue to have sizing issues because they are much bigger than expected, but turns out the size chart is foot size and not insole length! I wasn't aware. Next time I will get the right size and they'll be amazing when I can finally wear them!
