A quick brush after each wear and a monthly conditioning pass is all this leather needs. The full routine is in our leather care guide.
Read all reviews in the carousel above.
Choose your regular size — break-in is minimal since the last is already shaped close to a natural foot outline, and the leather continues to soften with wear. Full size guide.
How long does it take to get used to a zero-drop shearling slipper?
Most people adjust within one to two weeks of regular wear. Start with a few hours a day and let your calves and feet build strength gradually rather than switching over all at once.
Can I use any conditioner on full-grain leather?
Stick to a neutral, leather-specific conditioner rather than generic oils, which can darken or over-soften the hide. Full product recommendations are in our leather care guide.
Can I wear these in the rain?
A quick shower is fine, especially if the leather has been conditioned recently, but we wouldn't recommend standing water. Dry them naturally, away from radiators or direct heat, if they do get wet.
Everyday wear, water exposure, and alterations you make yourself are not.
What other colors does this come in?
The Ephesus series comes in 30+ colors and materials — leather, suede, and nubuck variants. Browse the full collection in men's barefoot shoes.
Barefoot shoes let your feet do the work they were built for. We make ours on three rules and keep every pair simple enough to repair.
A wide, foot-shaped toe box lets your toes spread for balance instead of squeezing them to a point.
Sizes EU 36 to 46An ultra-thin, flexible rubber outsole keeps you close to the ground, so every step tells your feet what is underneath.
Zero drop, heel level with forefootSoft genuine leather and a sole that bends with the foot, stitched rather than glued.

The shoes are well made and timeless! I ordered a size that was too big and they shipped a new pair immediately after I sent the shoes in the mail. Very excellent service for an excellent product.

great
Mens Oxford in Black Full-Grain Leather | Zero Drop Barefoot, Toe-Spreading, Genuine Leather
They fit well, are comfortable, the leather uppers are nice. I wish the soles were something other than resin/plastic but at this price point I get it.
Zero Drop Womens Ballet Flat | Dark Brown Full-Grain Leather, Wide Toe Box, Handmade
Came quickly, fit and looked great, and were a hit.
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.
I have various injuries to my foot and ankle. These boots have helped me return to dance with significantly less pain.

Execellent sandals absilutley love them
Absolutley Love these sandals..I am moving towards natural products, clothes and shoes and these were the best. So comfortable. Thank tou
This was better than I expected! Fantastic!
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!
The shoe is really comfortable but the bottom is slipper
The shoes arrived promptly and were very nicely made. Good quality.

Every pair starts as a hide on our cutting table and ends with the maker who stitched it. No production line, only a small team of craftsmen.
