Disappointed with freet who I had heard good things about.

Unfortunately the quality of the mudee shoes does not live up to what is expected of a pair of shoes that have a £66 price tag. One week into wearing them and they had already started fraying at the seams around the back of the boot and where the leather meets the sole. The seams are exposed and there is a daily build up of powdery dried white adhesive. The seams are quite unsightly as there are white streaks against the tan colour.

I have tried over the past month to contact freet about this. I have sent over ten emails, messaged on their website and attempted to phone, but there is no reply. Customer service does not exist.

They're probably the cheapest non-scam barefoot seller out there. They glue instead of stich their shoes so you can't expect them to last a lifetime though. I think they're the go-to brand if you wanna try out barefoot shoes for the first time or just want a budget friendly pair of barefoot shoes. Shipping is fast as well and products advertised are as present so definitely go check them out.

I bought the leap 2 model. I wish I could attach photos. The RHS toe box webbing split after very light use #Walking I don't climb. Soles wear out quickly/crack I've moved to xeros with there 5000mile sole warranty.

I've had several different pairs of their shoes - very comfortable & work well for walking - especially with the (optional) slightly thicker insole. The sizing varies a little but the website gives comprehensive guidance

I had a manufacturing defect on one shoe - service was excellent with a response to my email within 24 hrs and a replacement shipped to me within a couple of days.

I was recommended Freet by a family member who has bought most of her shoes from them for several years. Having considerably wider than average feet, shoes from most of the well known European and American barefoot brands are simply too narrow for me and most of my other barefoot shoes are from cheap generic Chinese brands as they are usually very generous in the width at least, even if the quality isn't the best.

I bought a pair of pace shoes and a pair of flex from Freet's website, sizing up one EU size in both of them. The pace were too small and narrow, I am not even sure whether two EU sizes up would be ok, so I haven't yet re-ordered them. This is a shame as I really loved the look of them and the pace are one of the styles that everyone recommends as a good all rounder. Thankfully the returns process was easy and a refund issued very quickly once the shoes were received and checked, in total it was only four working days from collection of the return package to refund.

I was worried the flex would be the same once received, but was happy to find that they fit perfectly in one EU size up, even with toe socks and toe spacers worn, and I wore them when out walking for several hours yesterday. They were very comfortable right out of the box, and apart from them slightly rubbing my heels initially, something which eased off during the course of my walk, I had no other issues. They are very nicely made and made of lovely quality materials and are one of the more stylish freet designs. Admittedly some of their styles are not very trendy looking and I know that can be off-putting for some.

I will definitely buy from freet again in the near future, but I do think the size discrepancy between different styles should be addressed, also the measurements given for all the different styles on the website are exactly the same for each shoe even though the website says to check the measurements for each shoe individually as these do vary. So if this could be fixed at some point it would be great.

I got some Tundras.
After about 8 months of really light wear the sole was wearing low.
Because I'm a bit rubbish at getting around to things it was 4 months later before I contacted them, by which time the soles were pretty much worn out.
Customer Service were less helpful than you would hope. They sent a bit of a refund and sent a generic email about how the soles need to be flexible and therefore wear out quickly.
I've had barefoot footwear over 10 years and never had any wear out so quickly.
So yeah, really nice comfy shoes that last a year. Really disappointed.

I've been wearing Freet shoes for around 2 years now, starting with the Tundra and more recently the Flex. I have been so impressed with both shoes - they are comfortable, flexible, hard-wearing, and look great.

I had an issue with my first pair of Tundra's and they were immediately replaced without question.

The pricing is infinitely more competitive compared to the likes of Vivobarefoot et al and, in my experience, the products are superior but with less fancy marketing.

I bought the York model. These are supposed to be barefoot shoes. The sole is more rigid than most of my normal shoes. There is also a ridge on the inside at the back of the shoes that is pressing against the back of my heel with every step. Worst shoes ever.

On their website they publish only exaggerated happy customer reviews, giving you false impression on their production. I've bought two models, not bad, not excellent, just ok, have their pros and cons. I've posted a review with these pros and cons based on my experience, it wasn't approved, because it wasn't heavenly happy enough. Shoes itself after two weeks of usual wear started to fall apart.
My experience is bad both in communication and product quality.

Those are my review:

* On "Pace"
Really interesting model, I waited to share my experience in details, but while I waited, my pair has begun to fall apart. First, several laces loops come off (ok, I sewed them back), then some panel inside toe area unglued itself, don’t know how to fix this. That’s my detailed experience after a month of regular everyday use, sadly.

* On "Bootie M"
I am very confused with my experience with Bootee. I was buying them for hiking and commuting in a lightly wet conditions, which seems like an intended use case. But it does not worked out for me, for two reasons

1. Extremely slippery on wet surfaces. The most slipperiness I have ever experienced both in everyday and hiking shoes. Natural materials, artificial – everything can be tricky. I was doing a well-known and well maintained trail in Booties, and for the first time I was clinging for the hand rails on stairs, streams crossings, etc. Wet wood fills like ice. In city, during a light rain, I had slipped twice while crossing the road. I just fill myself in danger, really.

2. Water resistance in fact is brilliant. Three hours of light rain, wet grass — my feet stayed dry. Except toes. Toes go wet almost immediately and will stay this way. I don’t feel this like leaking, more like some complicated physics including temperature, condensation, etc. But feels awkward.

3. Other moments. I wear them without insoles, which give me clumsy and unstable feeling (I am spoiled by the fivefingers). Without insoles performance is ok. Also, I find the ankle collar stiff and harsh, especially for the achilleas, but that’s just me.

So, in general, the model is very promising, but in my experience is kind of unusable in wet conditions. In dry days I would choose more light and flexible footwear.

My first trade at Freet. Smooth experience 👍 Reasonably fast delivery from Cz to Dk, and at a low price (€5) Looking forward to hiking in my Freet Tundra, they seem really well put together 👍

Déçu par mes dernières expériences de Vivobarefoot, je me suis tourné vers les chaussures Freet, et je ne le regrette vraiment pas.
J'ai eu un très bon contact avec le service clientèle et le confort de ces chaussures est incroyable. Comme j'ai commandé plusieurs paires pour tester la taille (il vaut mieux prendre une taille au-dessus), j'ai renvoyé une paire vers l'Allemagne, mais il faut noter que cet envoi a été à mes frais. Cela dit, avec les prix plancher et la réduction que j'ai eue, cela ne m'a pas dérangé outre mesure.

Super produkt, fair priser, overskuelig hjemmeside og God, hurtig service.

Jeg bestilte to par sko, som desværre blev sendt i hver sin forsendelse, DVS. 2× told, og gebyrer. Jeg skrev en mail til supporten, fik svar dagen efter, hvor de beklager, forklare sig med Corona og brexit, og at jeg skulle sende dem kvitteringer for tolden, og de ville kompetencere mig for mit unødige gebyr.

Det er da service!
