Why barefoot shoes?
The feeling of not wearing shoes
Preserving the natural shape of the foot
The large toe area allows the foot to maintain its natural position in the shoe, so your toes can take their natural position without restriction. This helps to prevent foot deformities.
Walking in barefoot shoes allows you to walk with a straight back.
Strengthening foot muscles
We strengthen the muscles and flexibility of the foot and develop its proprioception. The thin and flexible sole allows your feet to adapt to the terrain and surface irregularities. Your foot is active, which not only strengthens your feet but also your calves.
Natural foot rolling
In barefoot or minimalist shoes, the foot moves from the forefoot, rather than from the heel to the forefoot.
The flat or zero-drop sole ensures that the forefoot touches the ground first, not the heel. This relieves pressure on our entire skeleton and joints, eliminating impact on the joints, especially in the knees and back.
Product information "BALLOP Barefoot Movel "
The "Movel" is our new barefoot casual shoe for spring/summer 2024. It impresses with its extremely lightweight feel and an upper made of thin knitted fabric that is pleasantly elasticated and breathable.
The lacing system ensures optimum support despite the elasticity. The Barefoot 2 sole (just like the Barefoot 1 sole on our outdoor models) is modelled on the natural shape of the foot. It is also a classic barefoot shoe in which the feet feel comfortable: wide toe box, zero heel and a very thin, flexible sole that allows you to feel the ground well.
Like all our adult models, the Movel comes with two insoles: A comfort insole (5mm) and a minimal insole (3mm), making it ideally customisable to individual needs.
Please note: Please refer to our size chart for barefoot shoes to find the right shoe for you. Our barefoot shoes run small!
