Customer photo review of SKITTLE MID - ADULT
Joana F.Verified
I started wearing paperkrane shoes about 2 years ago. I tried more than one barefoot brand shoe to help with bunion pain. I have zero bunion pain now. Sure, I still have foot fatigue, espeically after work as a Nurse. Unfortunately, I am now unable to wear any other shoes. I would order any style in the mids and hightops, those are my favorite. I panicked when PK stopped shipping to the US, due to tariffs, and bought every pair I didn't already have. Paperkrane has me SHOOK!

These are super cute and extremely comfortable. I've only recently been moving into barefoot shoes, and these are the most comfortable sneakers I've tried yet. I have wide feet and these are very roomy accross the toes. Super happy!

Patrick D.Verified
Comfortable and just awesome shoes. Wear them for weightlifting and love it. Surprised to actually get a neutral colour in the lucky dip- definitely doing again. I do find that I should go up to a 44 even though I’m usually 43 to give a time bit more room as they are pretty thing (height wise) at the toes.

What a pleasant surprise! Unwrapping the he lucky dip package was like receiving a birthday present from a friend who knows what you like better than you do! Super grateful for the warmer style after relocating from the tropical north to the frigid south. These baby blues slip on and off quickly for minimal heat loss between the woolly slippers and braving the icicles on the way to morning swimming training. The perfect fit helps to step up the pace on the mad dash to start work on time and t...

Love them !! They've really changed my centre of gravity and for the best ! I feel I'm using all of my foot now which is helping to strengthen and support my whole body and posture I'm naturally away with the fairies, so these are my perfect shoe ! My favourite part is feeling more in my body as I'm aware of where my feet are in space🤩 I'm telling everyone ! Highly recommended

Sarina T.Verified
Love these shoes!! They’re so comfortable. The tongue was a little stiff and pokey into my ankle at first, but I persisted and it’s softened up nicely (if this is an issue, try loosening the laces at first, only took 3 days for me). I didn’t get any blisters from these shoes either!

I wanted a pair of shoes I could do everything in, go for a walk, workout in the park and just feel good. I found them. I have other barefoot shoes but they are fabric. These are a bit more like a sneaker. Pic at the park about to do my park bench workout!

Angela J.Verified
I looked at Paper Krane shoes for 4 months before finally deciding to bite the bullet and purchase. I reached out and asked some questions about sizing and the lady was very helpful. Honestly I am so pleased with the fit of these shoes for my daughter. We had tried other barefoot brands and styles and they either didn't fit well or my daughter didn't like the look of them. Paper Krane ticked all these boxes. 6 months of wearing them every day and they look well loved, but the sole still looks ...

Very comfortable, soft leather that molds to your foot shape. My last ones I wore almost daily for 3years and they are still my favourite barefoot shoe out of all mine.

Jessica P.Verified
My daughter loves these and has been wearing them most days since getting them! (The other days she’s wearing her PK boots!). Seriously comfortable, no ‘wearing in’ time and look super cute with everything. Worth the price and fiddle time working out the size. 😃

Erica M.Verified
The day these shoes were announced my daughter was diagnosed with autism. We've been wearing PKs for four years now and they're comfortable and durable. They're the only shoes my daughter will wear daily and not take off. I've gone on 16km hikes through the rainforest in mine and we're constantly receiving compliments and questions on them. It meant so much that I was able to explain to my daughter that the artist who collabed on these shoes was like her and that her autism doesn't have to limit...

Lel G.Verified
Mr 6 is a super active kid and for him even sitting is a whole body experience 😅 so having comfortable, flexible shoes that give him the freedom he needs is super important. And he love love loves his 'rainbow shoes' - picked them himself and is so excited that he gets to keep them 🤣

LOVE THEM! Super comfortable and go with every outfit! I’ve hardly taken them off and if I’m not wearing them, I’m wearing my PK camel toes! Great quality. I’m so excited for the new shoes dropping over Spring/Summer.

Chloe B.Verified
These shoes are so comfy! Not even a barefoot fanatic but being able to wiggle my toes and not have them constricted is excellent. I haven't had them slip on concrete in wet weather, and they're reasonably water resistant. So stoked I took a chance and bought these - I'm absolutely converted and will be buying more!!

Chee S.Verified
I've been a paperkrane fan for years now bought so many pairs from you guys. I've said this before in a previous email but I was getting a lot of pain in my knees and quads because I have flat and wide feet and was wearing chucks most of the time. Since I've switched to PK a few years ago I've had zero quad and knee pain since then! I love this particular model because I'm a very active individual, and run and go to the parks with my baby a lot. With some of the previous paperkrane shoes I fe...

Great purchase ever. I was hesitating buy first barefoot school shoes for my girl as I’m not sure if she will like it. Turned out she loves it so much, running walking and telling me how much she loves it. Highly recommended !!!

Inèz D.Verified
Love my Paper Kranes! I swapped to barefoot shoes almost two years ago now, and bought only one pair of enclosed sneaker-type shoes from Vivobarefoot. Although not terribly ugly, not super amazing looking either. They've done a great job and I've worn them heaps, but when they started showing more wear and tear (and I couldn't really find a matching olive coloured shoe polish to touch them up), I felt I needed a fun, good-looking pair of shoes, so that I could wear some nice shoes when I dressed...

Rachael G.Verified
This was my last attempt to find shoes my ASD3 daughter would feel comfortable in (we went through so many!). after a bit of convincing, she let me put them on and I couldn't believe it when she even kept them on in the car! These are a total game changer for us! Easy to put on and hopefully one day my daughter will be able to do so as well. I also loooove that I can buy these in adult sizes so we don't have to go through getting her use to a different shoe. Argh! so good.... Your newest fan, Ra...

Carys N.Verified
We love Paperkrane shoes. These are his 5th pair, over as many years. The quality is amazing - he plays hard in them and they last a full year till they are out grown (and some still have life for hand me downs). Sizing, shape and comfort level is also incredible - we value barefoot life hugely and believe it to be important for children's development, so when shoes are needed these are the ones to keep freedom of movement when climbing and balancing. + the colours and prints are so fun 💚

Very happy with them and so chuffed to discover a Melbourne based brand of bare feet shoes for my flat and wide feet. Going to order a second pair now! Thank you very much and hope business continues to grow and you all will stay around for a long time! Been challenging finding comfortable sneakers.

Love my barefoot shoes! This is my first barefoot shoe experience. I was bit worried as I have quite narrow feet, but my feet fit in these perfectly! I have flat feet and have had no problems transitioning to these. And they look AMAZING!! I'm walking on rainbows!

Loz D.Verified
Wanted a pair of leather/suede barefoots for winter with a bit more insulation, that wasn't going to cost an arm and two legs. These are perfect - warm, comfy, can handle rocky terrain and not overpriced. I like that these are mostly boring and with a splash of something different as they go with anything, but I'd really love to see some crazy colour combinations or patterns in suede or leather. 😉

Love these imperfects. They're actually perfect fit and most comfortable shoes ever. I had to put my own arch support though because I have flat feet but the shoe has plenty of space for extra insole.

Couldn't say no to these Veggie Lows! Nice addition to my small collection of barefoot shoes =] Instead of a box they came in a bag, which can be re-used for groceries or something else - nice touch! There also was a pair of the insoles - for those who is new to barefoot shoes.

Carly S.Verified
My 2nd pair of paper kranes and I'm lining up my next while loading all my old shoes on Trademe. If you're wondering if these are right for you - good chance they are. Sore feet/ankles/hips? Rolling your ankles weirdly often? Looking at your toes like why are they so sad? Not gonna pretend theyre a cure-all, but they make me feel like at least I'm putting my best foot forward. Would, and do, recommend to everyone. Recommend getting the inner soles if youre new to barefoot. It is quite hard...

I love my new Licorice MJs. They are so spacious and comfortable. I can finally use my toes the way they are supposed to work, with plenty of room. I like feeling the ground and textures I am walking across. My new favorite shoes!

These shoes have become my daily work shoe. As a massage therapist, it feels great to have a broad toe and flexi sole…honestly the most comfortable work shoe I’ve worn in my 26 year career…and they look great too. Definitely buying more pairs, my feet are happy and no longer ache at the end of the day

I first ordered the size 40 and decided to change to the 41 which is the perfect size. They are a little roomy as I don't have wide feet but with the inserts they are perfect. I will order another pair right now!

Customer video review of PLUM | RETRO LOW
Carly S.Verified
These shoes are exactly what I was hoping they'd be. Super comfy, go with just about anything and really cute. They've started my barefoot journey and ruined my other shoes for me. My son tried them on and said they were way comfier than his shoes so we'll likely be getting him some at some stage too! I saw a review that said they felt tight on top of the toe and I found that too, but it quickly settled without any major discomfort.

I am a Les Mills BodyCombat instructor and was recently at our CanFitPro global conference. I had just received my Just Don’t shoes (first ever Paperkrane purchase) and absolutely adore them. They were so comfy I decided to forgo the regular barefoot style I wear for workouts and kept these beauty’s on. Front row at the presentation just smashing it in my Just Don’ts. I’m about to grab a different pair to continue to add to my new obsession. Thanks for such a comfy, stylish and cheeky shoe.

The Plum Retro Low's have been a great addition to my barefoot footwear collection. I have been wearing these to work for the last two weeks with my it'sWMT grip toe socks and my feet feel great! The shoes are light, functional, flexy and stylish. I got complimented by my colleague. My work requires me to be on my feet all day accumulating a lot of steps. My PK's are holding up, great pair of sneakers! The first two days I had the insoles in and they were getting a bit snug so since then I've be...

I have been wearing barefoot shoes for years and have been trying to convince my son to try barefoot shoes as well. I finally convinced him when I was making my first PK purchase. He was hesitant but he hasn't worn anything else since they arrived. Safe to say PK's are a hit in our house and we won't be going back.

First time ever wearing barefoot shoes and I LOVE THEM! Immediately I noticed how comfortable my feet felt!! I realised I'd been squashing my feet into narrow sneakers and it was quite painful. Straightaway when I slipped my new Paperkranes on, I could tell that my toes actually had space and weren't squished. Honestly, LOVE these shoes. If you've never tried them before but always wondered... I highly recommend!
