Tips

If you're new to minimalist shoes, start with shorter walks to let your feet and legs adapt. The removable sockliner allows you to fine-tune ground feel—remove it for maximum barefoot sensation or keep it for a bit more cushioning. Pair with lightweight hiking socks for the best fit and moisture management.
