Freet Footwear – Freedom in Every Step
At Freet, we believe that less shoe equals more freedom. That’s why every pair of Freet barefoot shoes is designed to let your feet move, flex and feel – just the way nature intended. Whether you’re hiking a trail, training hard, or simply living your day-to-day, our barefoot shoes are built to support real foot function from the ground up.
Freet Shoes Background
Freet shoes have ‘less shoe’ in them. Deliberately. Freet combine the best materials, components, and design though, to make your experience the best balance they can between natural movement and fitness for the job you’re on – whether hurtling down a muddy grass hillside or practicing yoga. Different shoes for different purposes but always ‘less shoe’ …
People have been around for many thousands of years but most people have only been wearing shoes for hundreds of years. If you look around at small children, who often take their shoes off at every opportunity, you will realize that it is unnatural for our feet to be overly cushioned from the world.
We complain of knee injuries and problems with our feet but we are effectively strangling the astonishing network of muscles, ligaments, and nerves which were designed to respond to our movement requirements. We spend most of our lives in shoes with our feet unable to flex and move naturally.
Why Choose Freet Shoes?
From our roomy toe box to zero-drop soles, Freet shoes are made for foot-shaped movement. They’re fully flexible, ultra-light and designed for real-world performance. We engineer each model with purpose – whether it's durability for the outdoors or grip for the gym.
Your feet do amazing things. Freet simply gives them the space to do it naturally.
Expertly Designed, Mindfully Made
Freet Footwear is founded by a team experienced in the development of performance sports footwear and biomechanics. Its mission is to allow feet to operate naturally whilst we go about all our activities – sport, leisure and everyday.
Free your feet from the confines of unyielding shoes – put them back in touch with the world around us. Allow your muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, and joints to function naturally rather than adapting to the shoe. Feel your toes, feet, ankle and leg muscles coming back to life as they flex and strengthen as nature intended.
Freet shoes will help to bring your feet back to life, unlocking their potential.
Wear them before, during and after your activity. Wear them all day… Wherever you are… Whatever you’re doing.
A Footprint That Gives Back
Freet doesn’t just focus on feet – we care about the earth too. From recyclable packaging to long-lasting construction, our mission is to minimise waste and support sustainability. We also proudly back organisations like the Green Planet Appeal, doing our bit to give back to the world that gives us so much.
Built for Natural Movement
Our feet were never meant to be confined. Traditional shoes can disrupt posture, compress toes and limit foot strength. Freet barefoot shoes are here to undo all that – helping your feet reconnect with the ground, move freely and get stronger with every step.
Whether you're new to barefoot or a seasoned minimalist, our shoes are made for everyday adventures. Transition gently, listen to your body and experience the freedom of footwear that’s shaped by nature – not convention.
Freet Footwear Business Ethics
Freet hates unfairness, intolerance, pomposity, lack of integrity as well as any wasted use of our shared resources. They design and develop all their products in the UK and work very closely with their Chinese manufacturing partners. They have as tight an operation and supply chain as they can, but continually work to improve. They have long term relationships with smaller, family run factories where they can discuss and agree what is acceptable in terms of quality, cost and worker terms and conditions. They pay a little more but try to ensure every ‘stakeholder’ has a little more than ‘average’ in terms of pay and conditions such as time off. They will not work in the more cost-driven, ‘sweat-shop’ environments where no one cares except the big boss and his wallet.
In addition to this, Freet work every day to make great shoes, responsibly. They visit their factories regularly and have agreed on ethical standards.
Freet currently supports the work of Green Planet Appeal.
