Customer photo review of Fir - Barefoot Shoes+1
Kirsten F.Verified
These are extremely comfy shoes, and nicely waterproof. Not good for slippery surfaces like mud or ice, but perfect for being out in the rain. The size was slightly on the large size compared to other Hobibear shoes which are apparently of the same dimensions, but an extra pair of socks on top of my toe socks has done the trick. I wish the tongue was a little longer, but that's a minor quibble in an otherwise great shoe.

These are brilliant for those of us who have wider feet due to bunion issues - please remember to order arch support orthopaedic insoles ,,, so you can have comfortable shock absorption as an additional benefit. This was recommended by my doctor when he inspected these shoes. You can order them online and they are important to relieve stress on your feet - you’ll be pleased with your purchase once you have these in place.

They are incredibly comfortable and waterproof being a huge bonus for where I live in Manchester England. I love the freedom my feet have and will definitely be buying more

These are my second pair and they are great! Grey ones for casual, cream ones with my flowery dresses. Comfortable and I love the way they look. I often find shoes restrictive but these work everyday, all day.

Sara Anne T.Verified
I really love my Hobibear shoes! they are very comfortable and my toes have lots of room to spread out. I had to size up though - I am normally a UK size 8, but had to order a size 9 as my heels were rubbing on the back of the shoe. I love the colour and the quality is excellent, and with so many different styles to choose from I can't wait to get my next pair!

Comfortable doesn’t push my toes in one direction squeezing them, instead allowing them to move comfortably in the shoe. I like the colour ideal for wearing with my summer clothes. Will get the black later. Thank you .

These shoes have been absolutely amazing. I really don’t know what to expect with the price being so low but they’ve been great! Super comfortable and flexible. I don’t really think I’d see a difference until I tried wearing some Reeboks that I own and my feet felt super crammed into them and it was terribly uncomfortable. I know own 3 pair and will probably buy more. At this price point why wouldn’t I?

Best shoes I’ve bought for every day use for a long time . The wide toe box feels like my feet are not squashed like all my other foot ware makes me feel like walking naturally and so comfortable. I was really surprised for once an advert it true !

Customer video review of Agave - Barefoot Shoes
Natalia C.Verified
These are the comfiest shoes that my boyfriend has worn. He always struggles to find shoes because he has big fit and feels like every shoe is painful after a long day of walking/standing. Not only are they incredibly comfortable, but their versatile design strikes the ideal balance between formal and casual: perfect for both office wear and everyday use. It's a relief to finally find shoes that keep his feet pain-free. I'm waiting for formal woman shoes so I can get myself a pair.

Maria M.Verified
So far, so good. I have been using them just for a few days for a short commute (2km - 8 km) by walking and by cycling in Scottish winter on rainy days and on subzero dry days. Also had a 10 km walk. I have problems in my right foot with a bunion and the 2nd toe is a hammer toe. This winter I can't use my usual mountain boots anymore, so I am looking for options. These Hobibear boots are very comfortable. I still need to try longer walks and taste them on rocking terrain and under heavy rain. I ...

Alison W.Verified
I have been wearing barefoot/minimal footwear for about 2 years now (helped me on my journey from being registered disabled to getting back to an active life). I needed a comfortable, but smart/casual, pair for my voluntary work and socialising. I fell in love with the colour of these immediately. They are really comfortable, I can be on my feet for many hours and seem really well made.

The comfiest wide toe box shoes I have had. I have tried barefoot shoes but found for extended walks on tarmac that they would leave me with sore feet. These shoes have the benefit of heel cushioning and plenty of room for natural toe movement

Ioanna L.Verified
The shoes are great. It shows from my photos they have already been worn, so this is a proper review not just based on how they look. They are soft and I love the zero drop sole, because it is not too thin so the foot has support, but a proper one, without extra "heel". They are comfortable to wear and also look lovely. I am very pleased with this purchase and started looking in their women's department for a similar model for me 🙂

Great pair of boots, just what I was looking for while walking the dog through wet grass and muddy fields, warm, comfortable and kinda waterproof, not sure how they'd fair in a downpour, but I'm happy with them, well done hobibear, love the fact that they have a wide toe box and zero drop on the heel/toe. Can't comment on longevity, only had them for 3 weeks, but if their shoes are anything to go by, which I use for work every day, they should last the distance :-)

Very comfortable...my toes have a lot of room. I can slip them on and pull the laces and it never feels like it'll fall off. I had to be very intentional about the size. I recommend you measure your feet (L and W) to make sure, because the website size is much smaller than I normally wear.

These feel really good quality. Sturdy and seem to be waterproof. Easy to get on and off, just have to straighten the tongue when slipped on. Have walked on pavements, mud and grass. Walked in rain today and still dry. Only downside was the time waiting for delivery from China. I ordered 5.5 as I am normally UK 5.5 to 6. They came up larger than expected so asked to exchange for a UK5 which fit beautifully. I am considering buying a trainer-like pair now.

Kirsten F.Verified
I cured myself of long-term plantar fasciitis through exercises and wearing barefoot shoes. Out of all the brands I have tried, I have found Hobibear shoes to be the best fit for me - plenty of room at the toes, just enough of a cushion on the sole (with the option of removing the insole if you prefer), and zero drop so the heel is at the same level as the forefoot. These Maple boots are a good autumn boot - they aren't waterproof, but I use waterproofing spray on mine which helps to prevent ...

I absolutely love these boots. They are so comfy. Once I put them on my feet rest and I can forget about any pain. Having bunion they are perfect as they are wide. No more stress about having cold and wet feet in the rain plus it is so easy to clean them. Highly recommend for anyone who loves comfort of their feet.

Great boots, super comfortable and a great colour - just watch the sizing. These are EU 39, but are down as UK 5 on the website - they are definitely a UK 5.5, however. So just keep an eye on the sizing, but once you've found the right ones for you, you will be delighted with them!

Have been wearing barefoot shoes for over 3 years and wanted some trainer style shoes for casual wear. The Gorse trainers are super comfy and allow my toes to sit naturally, as well as not pressing into the outer of my foot. So glad my wife got me these for my birthday.

Nice shoes. Buy a number down. Normally I buy size 10 because the normal shoes have a norow tip. I bought size 10 and I should of buying size 9 because the wide tip. I highly recommend this brand.

In love with these barefoot boots! They are light, warm and comfortable. I ordered the wrong size and the customer care team took care of everything until the new pair of the correct size arrived. Now all the family uses Hobibear for our daily shoes and we couldn't be happier.

I love these! I have been using barefoot shoes from different brands over the past 3 years. But I was still looking for a barefoot shoe that had a bit of cushioning but would still allow my toes to sit comfortably and these 100% deliver

Purchased these shoes as was recommended from my podiatrist wide toe shoes for my feet. Love them the most comfy shoes I’ve ever worn. I would recommend going up a size or two. As I’m a 5 and a seven was the perfect fit. Customer service is excellent and very helpful. All over I would recommend these shoes and company. I’m about to order another pair myself.

This is my third pair of hobibear shoes and I’m practically living in these ones at the moment. Coming into the autumn with wetter weather these are my new best friend as they are waterproof. I’ve gone through so many designs and types of shoes over the years due to various health problems and I can now stick to hobibear shoes. They are so comfortable I can wear them all day.

Purchased these after a recommendation from a friend. I wanted bare foot shoes that I could complete my 5+ mile weekly walks in. These are the perfect combination of a wide toe with a slightly thicker but flexible sole, to protect from hard and uneven ground. Would highly recommend and have done.

I can’t shut up about them tbh! And have gotten lots of compliments. I have already scuffed them up a bit. Been loving them for long work days, walks, and they do decent in the rain too. I call them ‘wide toe’ shoes rather than ‘barefoot’ shoes because they do have the sole cushion, but honestly I prefer it that way. I like the cushion. I was more concerned about having a wide toe box than actually feeling like I am walking barefoot. So it was a smart buy for me and def plan to buy a second pa...

Hobibear are my 'go to' work shoes. I'm on my feet all day long, they are super comfortable and light. This particular style is true to size, I am a UK6 (39) and they fit perfectly. Recommend.

Fabulous to be able to stay in wide toe box barefoots through the winter! Don’t expect hiking boots grip - your bare feet don’t have that either! But incredible to stay warm and dry regardless of conditions and still get all the benefits of barefoot shoes - at a reasonable price. Would love to know ethos behind company - and that conditions for Hobibear workers are good - not like some others in China.

bought for my young adult son; grateful they came in adult UK size 13. He had been wearing a different brand of barefoot shoes all summer so it was a relief to hear him say these were just as comfortable and as wide. He particularly loves that with elastic laces the boots are slip on and just ties the laces when he wants the fit to be less loose. He said they are warm and waterproof too.
