SIZING & FIT GUIDE

Our Fit recommendation for this shoe based on customer feedback: Order your normal EU size

If you don't know your normal EU size, or would like to double check sizing for this model, please use the sizing tools we have provided here like this:

1. Print out our Printable Size Guide for this model and stand on it - making sure your printer is set to 100% Scale. Choose the size where your longest toe finishes. If you are on the line, consider if you will be wearing thick socks, or prefer to have less or more space in your shoes and choose accordingly.

2. Use our Strutfit online sizing app to check your feet measurement and it will tell you what size to order - Click on "WHAT IS MY SIZE?" above. You will need an a4 sheet of paper and a smartphone for this. Once you have done this once, it will also tell you what size you need for all the other shoes on our website as you browse through other models.

3. Use the sizing chart provided which shows the insole length and width of the shoe which you can use to compare the measurements against another pair of shoes that fit you well. Or you can compare them with a sizing chart from another brand and work out your size that way. This is not a fool-safe way though, as the volume and material in the upper of the shoe can also make a big difference to the fit so best to use this in conjunction with one of the other sizing methods.

We don't recommend manually measuring your feet to work out sizing, as in our experience most people measure incorrectly without the use of a proper tool such as a brannock device.

CARE GUIDE

Apply Carbon leather care specifically designed for carbon leather to keep it moisturized and supple. This helps prevent cracking and maintains the leather's natural sheen. Follow the product instructions for best results.

Once the shoes are dry, apply Carbon Pro Waterproofing Spray evenly over the entire surface of the shoe. Hold the spray can approximately 6-8 inches away from the shoes and spray in a sweeping motion. Be sure to cover the entire surface for maximum protection.

Depending on usage and exposure to elements, it's recommended to repeat the cleaning and waterproofing process periodically to maintain the integrity of the material and keep your shoes looking and performing their best.

By following these simple steps and using the carbon cleaning kit and Carbon Pro Waterproofing Spray, you can effectively clean and protect your shoes, extending their lifespan and keeping them in top condition for longer.

Amazingly comfortable except for the bit at the back of the shoe rubs on the back of your heal ankle area until worn in, so bandaids or comfeel till that’s broken in then you have some killer shoes.

Good shoes. Well made high quality. However in my right shoe in the heel area it pinching and hurts like hell…. I want to try getting heel pad and give another go

Luke E.

Good shoes but a poor fit for my wide feet! The shoes look nice and appear to be well made. Unfortunately, the shoes are a little too narrow for me in the midfoot. Also, a crease in the leather has now formed on one of the shoes which hurts the joint of my big toe. Such a shame, as I really wanted to like these!

Simon B.

Communication was great and the shoes were shipped the next day and arrived really fast to Melbourne. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Charis B.

I bought two pairs for my kids starting school. My son (size 42) had no no issues but my daughter (39) had some heel rubbing so we’ve bought a heel pad till the leather gives a bit. But the shoes are otherwise great and I would definitely buy again for next year. I like that that sole is a bit more substantial - my kids have vivobarefoot and complained they could feel the heat from the concrete. These are a bit more like trainers on the bottom which is a good mix.

This is my 3rd pair of freet (after pace and tanga), all freet have that comfortable feel and ready to use from the day 1. Look wise, york is really sleek and professional, something that i was looking for to wear in office environment. The leather is really soft and it looks it will get better overtime (kind of vintage looks i will say), also its water repellent and suede feel. Comfort wise, it's really comfortable and same as other freet, i can feel my sole (i like it that way, feel grounded), so far i don't have issue, i used to wear my freet pace for couple of years pretty much everywhere (hiking, office, running, holiday, etc) transition to this is really easy. The design also very good, with only a few shoelace outlet, and at the bottom of the outlet keep the shoes tight but u can overdoing it to make it too tight. I found the size guidance a bit too small for me, ordered size 42 initially (this is my size for freet pace and tanga) and i need to reorder size 43. Size 42 feels a bit tight on the front, kind of make my finger need to crunch a bit, even i feel there is still a space. Size 43 is perfect for me, it give enough space front and width. Recommend this shoes if you are looking for minimalist shoes for office purpose.

Immediately soft and comfortable to wear.

Minimalist design, great looking with quality construction and materials. Did a lot of walking on first wear and no issues. My first barefoot style shoe and love them.

Nathan R.

for a size 46 EURO they are on the small side. its good that the shoes come with additional inner soles if you require a bit more padding for your transition to barefoot shoes. The freet yorks are suede like finish which I didnt realise but they look good and feel good once stretched out to fit my feet better.

Tiina M.

I like the matt finish of the leather and the overall minimal look. They seem mostly well made. I'm only giving 3 stars because the top of the heel is very stiff and rubs against my ankle. I can feel it even through thick socks, so there's no chance of me wearing these shoes in warm weather when I will want to wear thin socks. Hopefully the heels will soften with use.

Michelle W.

Although the black suede shoes were the same size as the green material ones I bought ages ago, I normally wear them with my toe correctors and this time I found I had to use shoe stretch several times to get the width for comfort. However I would have to say that including my own orthotics they now feel like I'm walking on velvet. So thanks for the variety.

We Believe Your Feet Deserve Better

The foot and ankle is a complex mechanical structure made up of 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments.

The average person takes 8,000-10,000 steps each day. That adds up to approximately 185,000 km's in a typical lifetime—the equivalent to circling the globe more than four times!

Your feet have about 250,000 sweat glands which produce up to a cup of perspiration each day.

There are approximately 8,000 nerves in the feet—that’s more per square centimeter

In an average day of walking, your feet experience forces totalling hundreds of tons—the equivalent of a fully-loaded cement truck.

Women experience foot problems four times more often than men. This is largely attributed to shoe choice. High heels and toes with pointy, narrow toe boxes cause multiple foot issues.

Natural Foot Shaped, Flexible, Flat & Lightweight

Barefoot shoes mirror the shape and the natural curve of the feet, allowing them to move as nature intended. ... Barefoot Shoes not only strengthen all the muscles in the foot, but they also help the foot develop in the correct way to prevent deformities. Strengthening your feet by exercising and wearing minimalist shoes can improve your posture and prevent pain and injuries.
For many people, barefoot shoes also provide relief and improvement for existing problems like knee pain, back pain, bunions, and more.

Make sure to listen to your body and transition to functional footwear slowly. Consider wearing your new shoes for short periods at first and then gradually increase the time as your feet and body adapt to the changes.
