Do your legs hurt? Meet barefoot footwear that changes everything

Are your toes unnaturally squeezed in a narrow (front) toe box? Try barefoot shoes.

Stopa offers you comfortable shoes for all seasons. European quality and handmade for the best comfort.

Why barefoot?

Barefoot - barefoot (literally derived from the words bare and foot) means returning to a natural way of walking. We were truly born without shoes, and that's why walking barefoot is the best thing we can do for our feet.

Moreover, barefoot shoes bring comfort and protect our feet from external conditions.

Shoes full of health benefits

Our shoes from all brands perfectly mimic the anatomy of the human foot. There is a wide toe box that offers enough space for your toes to move freely and so that you no longer feel discomfort.

In other words, barefoot shoes allow for better blood flow, and prevent fatigue and blisters, thanks to the precise shape that imitates the human foot.

Another essential feature of barefoot shoes is something called zero-drop. This means that the toes and heel are at the same level, and the arch is left without support.

The foot arch doesn't need any support because it naturally “exercises” as you walk in barefoot shoes. Walking barefoot strengthens the muscles and tendons in your feet.

Moreover, zero-drop helps us abandon the incorrect walking stereotype, where the heel is the first part of the foot to touch the ground. Or the toes, in some cases. The correct walking stereotype helps with balance, strengthens tendons, and aids in healthy body posture.

To sum up, barefoot shoes strengthen the core and Achilles tendon and even shape your calves. The foot muscles progressively become stronger, and the foot arch naturally lifts.

We dare not forget to mention the flexible sole of barefoot shoes. The sole allows our feet to function properly because it doesn't restrict movement and allows the ground (surface) to massage our feet and send the right signals to our brain.

Last but not least, we emphasize the lightness and quality of the materials we use. Our barefoot shoes pass through hundreds of skilled hands of experienced shoemakers in European workshops to the highest standards.

What do I get with barefoot footwear?

Let's take a look at the health benefits of wearing barefoot shoes:

• Strong tendons and ligaments in the feet
• Prevention of flat feet
• Better posture = strengthening the lower back and hips
• Improved halluxes (bunions)
• Acupressure/stimulation of nerve endings in the feet

Golden hands and an eye for detail

To offer you the best possible walking and comfort experience, Stopine barefoot shoes are made in Slovakia, Czechia, and Portugal.

All models are produced in the best European workshops with a long history that guarantees top quality Quality. A premium shoe not only looks good and meets all the barefoot criteria, but it must also be of top quality.

Dozens of pairs of hands take care of every barefoot shoe and ensure their long lifespan. Everything starts at the beginning, at the drawing board with the design of new models, continues through production, and ends with the careful packaging of the footwear for the customer.

Each pair of shoes is cared for individually, thanks to handmade craftsmanship. Every single shoe is a projection of our passion for creating the perfect shoe.

We use top-quality materials to achieve the goal of the perfect shoe (leather, merino wool, elastic vegan materials). We emphasize that our materials are of the highest quality, locally produced and sustainable.

Careful production

In a successful global brand, Be Lenka, the motto is on the wall. It says: “With love for nature and humanity.” We dare to say that this motto is deeply engraved in the DNA of this company.

Because of this belief, they produce only as many pairs of shoes as they are sure they will sell. To be honest, it’s not always easy, because Be Lenka shoes are shipped worldwide. So far, they have delivered to more than 60 countries.

Will they fit? Are barefoot shoes suitable for my feet? Of course they are! Barefoot is the best alternative to barefoot walking.

There’s no better way because barefoot shoes respect the anatomy of your feet and provide both protection and the feeling of being barefoot at the same time!
