Barefoot shoes from BÄR:
The unrestricted barefoot experience 


Barefoot shoes do not constrict the foot and offer a comfortable wearing experience. 
The "barefoot" human foot (a foot that has never worn shoes) typically has a wide, flat forefoot and toes that are splayed and in line with the metatarsals, making the foot "fan-shaped".

A shoe-shaped foot has a relatively narrow forefoot, the metatarsals are no longer horizontally aligned and the toes are squashed together, twisted and no longer in contact with the ground. 

Feet are as individual as the complex human being itself. For this reason, there cannot and must not be a standard solution when it comes to toe freedom. The standardized shoe models do not represent an adequate average of the anatomical variation of all people who wear shoes. Barefoot shoes with uncompromising toe freedom offer the wearer pleasant comfort. Be good on your feet and enjoy movement again: it is a cornerstone of our evolution and gives us the freedom to achieve many things in life - in everyday life, in sport and at work.

ZERO HEEL 


The zero heel in barefoot shoes describes the human posture in which the ball of the foot and the heel are on the same level. People are born without heels and thousands of years ago mastered their lives without or only with very spartan footwear.   


Conventional shoes, however, have a heel split. This means that the heel is positioned higher than the ball of the foot.

WHAT DO BAREFOOT SHOES LOOK LIKE?

Well-designed "barefoot shoes" already look different from conventional shoes. This is due to the different last shapes:

In the manufacture of genuine barefoot shoes, asymmetrical lasts are used that correspond to the natural shape of the foot.

This is why they are wide at the front and narrow at the back.

NULLABSATZ 


Der Nullabsatz in Barfußschuhen beschreibt die Haltung des Menschen, bei der Ballen und Ferse auf einer Ebene liegen. Menschen werden ohne Absatz geboren und meisterten bereits vor tausenden von Jahren ihr Leben ohne oder nur mit sehr spartanischem Schuhwerk.   


In herkömmlichen Schuhen besteht jedoch im Gegensatz hierzu die Absatzsprengung. Sie besagt, dass die Ferse im Vergleich zum Ballen höher gelagert ist.

WIE SEHEN BARFUSSSCHUHE AUS ?

Durchdachte „Barfußschuhe“ sehen bereits optisch anders aus als herkömmliche Schuhe. Das liegt an den unterschiedlichen Leistenformen:
