Rediscover Grounding Barefoot Hiking Boot (Women's) - Forest

Very pleased

What a delight! Boots from the UK, wide enough at the toes for me, a lovely colour and a great design that blends relatively well with the mainstream offerings. I am so pleased. They are a bit stiffer than my Freets but I was specifically looking for this. Although I’ve been mainly wearing barefoot for the last two years I still find long walks on hard ground a bit wearing. These full a sweet spot for me and I’m grateful they exist. The grounding feature is icing on the cake - Tganks

Wanted to love them

I ordered these as hiking boots for the mountains and grasslands and wanted to love them so much, especially because of the price. I do love the flexibility and thin light feeling. However, these shoes come untied almost right away no matter the knot or tucking the shoe laces. And I have to retie them multiple times. And no matter the socks I wear I always get a blister even after multiple multiple uses. Pretty bummed because the blisters are so bad that I don’t even want to hike with them and I love the light feel and flexibility. Waterproofing is on point so definitely a plus! Slipper on really wet surfaces and not enough grip for rough terrain. Wish the area above the ankle was a little higher to just given the hiking I do.

waterproof tick, bit slippy on the rocks though!

I was looking for something really waterproof and these boots have delivered! Plenty of toe space and they seem quite flexible. I really like how they look too. Things to improve: I've found that they don't have as much grip on wet rocks or mud as my old Vivo Barefoot shoes. Also, the tongue could wrap around towards the ankle more maybe? And I'm finding that I have to retie them once I get walking as they seem to get loose.
