This is my 2nd purchase from Naturcontact. I bought boots in my 1st purchase and they were soooooo comfy that I decided to buy the shoes and heel supports as well. Communication on my delivery has been really good and on both occasions they arrived quickly.

The shoes are beautiful and very comfortable on my feet. I have pain on my feet but these have been God sent, the pain is much better. There customer service is excellent. My first order was small for me and exchange was quick and easy. I have bought 2 more after.

These shoes are wonderful, so comfortable and warm. I have just come back from a walk in the rain and my feet are dry and warm. Highly recommended. I have been wearing barefoot shoes for two years now and they have made a huge positive difference to my feet.
Renate D.
I've worn work boots and hiking boots most of my life, for everything, but thought I would try a pair of barefoot shoes. I'm so impressed. Comfortable, and no more aching feet! Thanks naturcontact!
Rob H.
So pleased with my order. It was an easy process and smooth delivery. I bought a pair of Naturcontact shoes for my husband and a pair for myself, and we love them. They fit well, and are extremely comfortable. This is my 3rd pair, and I love them all.

    FAQs

    What are barefoot shoes and how do Naturcontact barefoot shoes support natural movement?

    Barefoot shoes are minimalist footwear designed to let your feet move as nature intended. Naturcontact barefoot shoes feature a zero-drop sole, wide toe box, and ultra-flexible outsole, promoting natural gait, foot strength, and better posture. Unlike traditional shoes that restrict motion and elevate the heel, barefoot shoes encourage proper biomechanics by allowing full sensory feedback and a more grounded walking experience.

    What makes Naturcontact barefoot shoes different from other barefoot shoe brands?

    Naturcontact combines the essential features of barefoot footwear (minimalist sole, anatomical foot shape, and natural flexibility) with exclusive and innovative features like Aramid Fibers Technology® for enhanced cut resistance and durability, Italian design and German/UK engineering development. All our models are 100% vegan, crafted with eco-friendly materials, and thoughtfully designed for urban wear, outdoor adventures, or daily walking. We also prioritize style, comfort, and sustainability (we donate 1% towards green initiatives and reforestation) offering barefoot shoes that look good and feel even better, for your feet and the environment.

    Can I use socks, orthotics or insoles in Naturcontact barefoot shoes?

    Naturcontact barefoot shoes are designed to promote natural foot function without added arch support, helping to strengthen foot muscles over time. However, if you're transitioning or require extra support, thin or flexible orthotics can be used temporarily. Many users with flat feet, plantar fasciitis, or previous injuries find success by gradually reducing orthotic use while wearing barefoot shoes. In regards to socks the choice is yours. The term "barefoot shoes" does not necessarily exclude wearing of socks. From a health perspective, it doesn't matter if you wear socks in your barefoot shoes. It only affects the feeling when wearing them.

    Are Naturcontact barefoot shoes suitable for beginners transitioning from traditional shoes?

    Yes. Naturcontact shoes are an excellent choice for beginners. Our flexible sole and foot-shaped design support a smooth transition to barefoot-style movement. If you're new to minimalist footwear, we recommend starting with short walks and increasing use gradually to allow time for foot muscles, tendons, and posture to adapt. Over time, barefoot shoes can help relieve pressure, improve balance, and restore natural foot function.

    Are Naturcontact barefoot shoes good for wide feet, bunions, or flat feet?

    Absolutely. Naturcontact offer specific models for extra-wide feet and are specifically designed to give toes the freedom to splay naturally. This makes them especially beneficial for people with wide feet, bunions, flat arches, or foot pain caused by tight, restrictive footwear. The zero-drop platform also encourages proper alignment and a more stable base for the entire body.

    Can I wear Naturcontact barefoot shoes every day and in all seasons?

    Yes. Our barefoot shoes are made for everyday wear and a wide range of environments, from city sidewalks to mountain trails. We offer breathable summer styles, waterproof barefoot boots, and insulated winter models so you can enjoy natural movement year-round without sacrificing protection or comfort.

    What materials are used in Naturcontact barefoot shoes? Are they vegan and eco-friendly?

    All Naturcontact shoes are 100% vegan and made with sustainable, long-lasting materials like recycled polyester, eco rubber, and advanced synthetic fabrics. Material specifications and details are provided in the product description of each model. Our production is guided by environmental responsibility, offering durable barefoot footwear with minimal environmental impact.

    How do shipping, exchanges, and returns work?

    We offer fast shipping (from 2 business days to 5-8 business days for UK customers basing on model and availability and 8-12 days worldwide). Details of shipping duration is precisely shown at the checkout. We also offer free exchange and return labels on all orders. If you need a different size or model, the exchange process is quick and hassle-free through our user-friendly return portal. If you're not fully satisfied and prefer a refund, returns are free when you choose to be reimbursed via gift card. For direct refunds to your original payment method, a small handling fee may apply. Your satisfaction is our priority.

    How do I find the right size in Naturcontact barefoot shoes?

    To ensure the perfect fit, consult our size chart on each product page, which includes foot length in centimeters. Naturcontact barefoot shoes are designed with a true-to-size anatomical fit that leaves room for natural toe splay. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks or prefer a roomier feel.

    Can I wash Naturcontact barefoot shoes?

    Most Naturcontact barefoot shoes can be machine washed at 30°C using a gentle cycle, except for models with inner lining or vegan fur, which should be cleaned manually. However, for optimal care and durability, we recommend spot-cleaning with a damp cloth and avoiding harsh detergents. Shoelaces should be hand-washed separately, as they may fray in the washing machine. For best results, please refer to our detailed cleaning guide and consider using the Naturcontact cleaning kit to extend the life of your shoes.
