TOE-OFF SHAPE

Featuring a roomier toebox to accommodate proper running form, from foot-strike to toe-off.

ZERO-DROP

Concealed zero-drop (heel-to-toe height) allows your muscles and ligaments a natural, full range of motion.

REMOVABLE ADAPTSOL

Textured insoles have been shown to help reduce impact forces on the joints, which is why we applied our classic cushion pods to our new removable AdaptSol insole.

    Excited to wear more

    I got this shoe with hopes to strengthen my foot and ankle as I continue working out. I have running shoes from popular brands but I feel like the support and cushion were simply propping up my foot and not actually helping. Walked 4 miles in the Flux Runners and felt great— could tell my toes were being used more than in my other shoes but didn’t feel any pain! Got lots of compliments on the color as well. Did buy a half size down from my normal running shoe size.

    Fabulously comfortable

    I was unsure of what to expect when I ordered these, but these shoes are comfortable! Since I switched to barefoot/minimalist shoes a few years ago, it's been hard to find athletic shoes that fit my needs. Thankfully, these shoes provide toe splay, flexibility in the sole (mainly in the front half of the shoe), shock absorption, stretchy shoe material for the top part of the shoe, and can easily slip on with or without socks. The website says to order a half size down; I did that and the shoe fit as expected. Also, it seems like these shoes could accommodate a variety of foot volumes due to the stretchy fabric on the upper part of the shoe. All in all, the shoes look and feel great, and I'm happy with my purchase.

    Great shoe buying another pair

    The first feel of these shoes was amazing, after wearing them all day my feet didn’t hurt at all and my joints didn’t hurt like they usually do. I love the wide toe box, the insole feels incredible to help my foot muscles get feedback, and the elasticity of the upper hugs my feet in the best way. I really hope they hold up with wear!

Product FAQ's

Yes, these shoes are flat from heel to toe, allowing your feet to land naturally.

"Barefoot shoes" is a general term for shoes that optimize the natural biomechanics of the human foot. To achieve that, our shoes feature excellent flexibility, zero-drop (no heel raise), and a generous toebox to accomodate the foot's natural shape.

The amount of time it takes to transition to barefoot shoes varies for each individual, as everyone's feet are different and may adapt to the new shoes at different rates. However, the following general guidelines can help:

  • Gradual transition: Gradually increasing the amount of time you spend in barefoot shoes can help reduce discomfort and allow your feet to adjust to the new sensation of walking without shoes.
  • Start small: Begin by wearing barefoot shoes for a few hours at a time and gradually increase the duration as your feet get used to them.
  • Listen to your body: Pay attention to any discomfort or pain you experience while wearing barefoot shoes. If you experience discomfort, take a break and switch back to your regular shoes for a few days.
  • Give it time: It can take several weeks or even months for your feet to fully adjust to barefoot shoes, so be patient and persistent.

Keep in mind that everyone's feet are different and the transition time may vary. It's important to listen to your body and adjust accordingly to ensure a comfortable transition to barefoot shoes.

Yes! Many of our customers have successfully transitioned from traditional shoes to barefoot/minimalist shoes by wearing our shoes.

The Adapt Runner has a generous toebox, thanks to the Toe-Off shape which creates ample room for the toes throughout the gait cycle.
