True to size and my son will actually wear them. He struggles with sensory issues and hates normal shoes as he says there too tight. He hasn't complained once. I hear trying to get a refund is impossible so I nearly didn't bother as I didn't want to waste my money if they didn't fit. I was lucky though and didn't need to return

So comfortable. I've always struggled with sensory issues and new trainers were a massive deal for me. I always felt like my feet couldn't breathe but these are totally different. I don't feel restricted at all. They're softly and comfortable but also sturdy. I don't think I'll ever go back to high street brands again. I love these so much ☺️

Comfortable and non restrictive. I worry about badly fitting shoes as I’m diabetic and struggle to find trainers that are comfortable roomy yet stylish. These fulfill my brief completely. Thankyoy

Love these, perfect for my needs and great on comfort. The sizing was not very accurate, so I had to submit a return and get the next size up even though I measured by foot according to the chart. This was frustrating but Hobibear responded to my complaint and sent a replacement pair of the correct size - free of charge. This was good in the end.

I absolutely love my hyacinth bare foot shoes. I have ADHD and get the ice with the need to wear shoes. I hate that normal shoes are restrictive to the natural movement of my feet and that I can't feel the ground beneath my feet. When I first heard of bare foot shoes I thought of the hideous ones were each toe had a compartment but these are fashionable and comfortable and for the first time in my life I actually.like putting shoes on. I am 48 so thata quite a statement.

Love the warm lining and already proven the waterproof chops. Very comfortable with the barefoot & flexible sole and wide toe box. Perfectly true to size and seem well made. The laces do loosen after initial tightening but the fit is so good this doesn’t bother me at all

My Hobibear sneakers took some getting used to as there is no arch support but they are so comfortable now. My toes have room to move and I no longer experience pain when walking. Will definitely be buying another pair soon. Delivery was quick and lots of different styles available.

I suffer pain in my right foot in various trainers, shoes & boots but barefoot footwear is always pain free. These are really comfy wee boots and I’m definitely going to buy more. It’s early days yet so I’m just hoping the upper doesn’t split where the foot bends, but so far I’m very impressed with them

I'm so delighted with these shoes. They arrived quickly and are exactly what I needed for the winter months. They look fantastic, and I've had compliments about them already. They are so comfortable to wear, easy to get on and off and with the fleecy lining they are so warm and cosy. This is my first purchase from Hobibear but it definitely won't be last.

I haven't had my boots for long, I've only worn them twice. I was worried that they would rub the front of my ankle but they are extremely comfortable and I wore they all day. I would highly recommend, they are lightweight and keep your feet warm.

I bought these shoes for my husband and he loves them. He said they're the most comfortable boots he's ever worn and practically feel as though he's not wearing anything at all.

Initially I thought they might be too big, but actually they're a perfect fit. There is plenty of space for your feet to get hot without getting pinched or squeezed. They're very comfortable. I bought them for my martial arts class and they're great for it. Very happy with them and more affordable than other barefoot brands I have tried before

Hobibear are a great shoe. I haven't taken them off since I have had them. The Canvas material is really decent and harps back to those trainers that used to exist. Very starchy. Definately a must in my wardrobe.

I was really impressed with the customer services. When my first pair didn't fit they sent me a new pair of my choice straight away. These fit beautifully, are really comfy and look great.

Really pleased with these shoes. They look cute and are very comfortable. Still feel that I’m wearing them in and getting used to not wearing socks - very conscious of the tops against my bare skin. So far, so good!

Bought these for my wife, her first step into barefoot shoes. They arrived on time (I'll be honest didn't think it would happen when I got the shipping details however it was very prompt). Reviews said go half a size up and glad I did, fit perfectly, my wife loves them, give her feet so much freedom and comfort compared to standard fit shoes/trainers. The toe box is perfect, lots of wiggle room with no pain. Very versatile looking trainer that can be worn with lots of outfits apparently. These ...

Very comfortable, for some reason I can't wear them to work as my feet get really but that's nothing to do with the footwear, the floor isn't great for walking on, but can wear them all day anywhere else...

Delivery took a while as expected but the shoes are brilliant, so comfortable and pretty. As someone with wide feet I struggle to find pretty shoes that fit well so these are wonderful and I'll be buying more colours!

As a first time ordering, the process and value for money exceeded my expectations, as the trainers are of perfect quality and design to feel so comfortable as a wide-footed size 9; I would highly recommend them and thank you for selling such a great style and comfort shoe.

First time using this company on the recommendation of my friend. I bought the boots which are very comfortable and I love the color. The trainers are great and a good fit. Very comfortable. Love them.

I have wide feet and always struggle to find trainers that don’t feel tight or rub at the sides. These ones fit really well straight out of the box — plenty of room in the toe area, good cushioning, and no pressure points. They feel supportive without being too heavy, and I can wear them all day without any discomfort. If you need a proper wide fit, these are definitely worth it.

Absolutely love these shoes for my 2 year old, he loves wearing them and the blue colour goes with lots. Will buy more as he grows as they seem really good quality.

I recently purchased one pair of Hobibear shoes and one pair of their boots after following the sizing guidelines on their website. While I needed to exchange them for a different size, the process was ultimately sorted out and I’m pleased with how everything turned out. The replacement pairs fit much better and were worth the wait. What truly stands out to me is how easy they are to slip on and off. Even more importantly, the wide toe box allows plenty of room for all my toes to spread natural...

Genuinely the most comfortable boots to wear. Only thing I hate and I use that word carefully is they squeak so so loud and it’s annoying and irritating to my ADHD brain so I find myself wanting to wear them but then the noise puts me off.

Measured and ordered the size recommended and they fit fine, 8.5 would normally be too big for me in normal shoes but these fit fine. Appear as good quality of more expensive wide toe trainers but time will tell. No complaints and already ordered another pair to rotate as will wear every day at work.

Olwen H.Verified
The most comfortable shoes I have ever worn!!!! really pleased with the fit and the quality. Slightly disappointed that they appear a lighter grey than advertised, but overall very happy and will be buying more in the future

Mittie C.Verified
Quality is amazing. I can tell my toddler finds them so comfy just by the way he is walking. They’re wide so ergonomically they’re great for young children. They also have a decent amount of flexibility to them. The material is soft yet hard wearing. So pleased and I will be purchasing these again and again as my toddler’s nursery shoes!

I have Morten neuropathy in my right toes so finding shoes that are comfortable is not very easy. I find these hobibear shoes are extremely comfortable and give me no problems at all Will buy more pairs.

Really impressed with the price, delivery and communication. I haven't worn these much yet but they fit really well and are true to size. I hope they're long lasting and time will tell...for now, very pleased.

Purchased these for my son whom has wide toes but tiny ankles so these little boots are perfect as they support his ankles whilst allowing his toes to spread naturally. So pleased with these as I've been looking for over 2 years for a decent pair of boots/shoes for him

Rachel P.Verified
This was bought for my daughter who has thoroughly enjoyed wearing them. She has very flat feet, and finds it hard to purchase comfortable and supportive shoes. These have been perfect and she will be buying more in the future.

I am very happy with these boots. I got a size 5 1/2 UK size and they are perfect. They look cute and neat and I love the fluffy lining, great for winter. I also really like the elastic laces, so they slip on and off easily. Overall I’m very happy.

Lisa J.Verified
Lovely and warm and so easy to wear. I walk for miles through the forest and my feet stay warm and dry and they don't ache! I don't think you need to go up a whole size, according to Hobbibear chart I needed a 9 but they are actually a bit big..apart from that, super happy!

My partner had spinal surgery last year and had previously tried barefoot shors which were very uncomfortable...these shoes, however have been a divine intervention...allowing his feet to have space, but also having a cushion between the ground and his foot 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Shame you didn’t send this out quicker as I’ve already ordered a second pair. There great. I’ve already posted this on FB on your threads but I really do thing you should consider first putting black soles on the orange pair and also make the black ones with all the different colour sloes you put on the white ones. Can’t imagine it would be hard to do as your just working with materials your already working with.

I always love the shoes I get from Hobibear, but these ones are ULTRA comfy, so easy to slip on and off, at first I was worried they wouldn't be tight enough with the no tie laces, but the elastic keeps them snug on my feet (despite having ordered them a half size too big!) As described, they're water resistant, not water proof, but I walked an hour yesterday on water logged muddy ground and they held up well I've had multiple compliments on how they look also, which I have to admit, is a rarity...

I was a little cautious buying theses. I read a review that seemed genuine and not AI generated for once. I took the gamble and bought me and my wife a pair. I have the normal lined boots and my wife the same but with fluffy lined insoles. They fit like magic and feel very natural to wear. If you like walking barefoot around the house you will love these as they feel like you are barefooted outside - but with style and warmth.

These are absolutely fabulous. I love this make of shoe/boot. Very comfortable. Wide toes. Warm. Waterproof. So easy to clean. Not leather, so no cracking or polishing. Look great every time. I really wish the snow boots you have just produced were wide toe! They would be ordered by me if they were. So glad I found this company.

Fiona J.Verified
The shoes seem to be very comfortable and just the amount of tread on the sole that I was looking for. Unfortunately I ordered a UK7 which is an EU 39 in this particular trainer. They are therefore too small. I am currently waiting for a replacement pair. All communication so far has been very quick.
