No, barefoot shoes are not inherently better for your feet, despite the hype they have received over recent years.

They’re designed to mimic walking barefoot (thin sole, zero drop, wide toe box), and can in theory be beneficial but they’re not risk-free or appropriate for everyone.

For some, barefoot shoes can lead to issues like stress fractures, Plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinitis.

To find the right shoe for your gait and lifestyle, book an initial biomechanical assessment online, or give us a call!
