I've been wearing barefoot style shoes for some years and decided that instead of going with one of the brands I have worn in the past, that I would try Freet instead. I like their ethical stance and their general vibe so I eagerly ordered a pair of black Pace shoes in my size (EU45/UK10) and waited for them to arrive. Initial impressions were really good. They look great and feel really nice on your feet. I started wearing them as my daily shoes, putting around 12-15,000 steps on them per day in my usual routine. After a couple of weeks of very comfortable wear though a flap of material came loose in the toe of 1 then the other shoe. Looked like the part had not been stitched properly as you can see the stich holes are all too close to the edge of the material to be long lasting. I reported it back and was sent replacement shoes and asked to donate the faulty pair (after first being asked to get them repaired locally). I have been wearing the replacements for a few weeks with the same level of use and today the exact same thing has happened whilst on the walk to/from work. Same fault with the same poor quality (apparent) stitching. Very disappointing. I have again reported it back but do not want them replaced as ethically this is not very good - a couple of months of wear and then they fall apart. Awful value for money. I will not be buying further pairs of this or any Freet style as I am now suspect of their manufacturing quality - real ethically made shoes are generally hand made and the workers paid appropriately. These are poor quality and I suspect the ethical schpiel from Freet will not stand up to true scrutiny

Bestilte 2 par sko, de kom i en pakke.
Rimelig hurtig levering. Ingen told, da de har en EU afdeling.
Mega glad for begge par sko,de lever til mine forventninger og informationen på hjemmesiden.
Det er ikke sidste gang jeg handler der.
Mvh. Lars

I recently bought a pair of Tundra 2 shoes which arrived quickly. Unfortunately the right foot had a line of stitching along the inside of the outer edge. This was very scratchy and uncomfortable and as I wanted to wear them without socks during the summer months, would eventually have rubbed the skin sore.
As they were £85 I decided to return them. To give her credit, the Customer Services lady was lovely and quickly sorted the returns procedure and delivery of a new pair. These also arrived very quickly so customer service was good.
However, the second pair had the same problem in both shoes this time. I tried them on with socks which was better although still not truly comfortable but I decided to keep them as I didn't want the hassle if returning them again.
I like the "barefoot" shape of these shoes and feel that I am walking in a much more natural way. Hopefully, as the adverts suggest, this will relieve some pressure on my knee.
So I would buy barefoot shoes again but not this brand. Even with socks, I don't know how far I'd have to walk before the irritating discomfort of the stitching caused soreness or rubbed raw. I have given 3 stars for the customer service mainly.

I bought Freet Skeeby’s and found them comfy so then ordered Mudee L2 walking boots . They were not at all waterproof. They were also very uncomfortable with so little flex in the leather that they only creased in one big valley over the toes, which caused the metal lacing hook to dig into my toes. I put a fair review on their website which they never published, but they did contact me about my review trying to offer me a discount to give them another go. It’s very dishonest. I now have Xero walking boots and love them.

Freet shoes are among the most Barefoot I've ever had. They are wide, foot-shaped and very comfortable.

Also a great company as regards returns and sizing advice.

Highly recommended.

Je suis fan de ces chaussures. Elles ne sont pas trop chères par rapport aux autres et solides.

I really don't like having to complain about a company, but unfortunately the poor customer service and having to raise a dispute with my bank for a refund, has lost Freet yet another customer.
I wish the company all the best, but I won't buy from them again.

I'm intrigued reading the reviews on here. I've bought 1 pair of Freet on average a year since it's inception. I don't know the staff personally, and have never received free shoes or ambassadorial products.

It's hard to take a balanced view from someone buying 1 item, because that person may have been unlucky. And it's human nature, particularly in the UK, that if something works well, like everyday things do, very few people review it. If it works, they're content with that. We're not a particularly enthusiastic country about many things, unfortunately. Given the length of time Freet have been making shoes, It's a shame there aren't more long term reviews.

In my experience no Freet shoe has ever worn out or broken within a year. I walk at least 1-2 miles a day on varied terrain, and go to the gym in them. Anyone saying they break within days or several months, has either been very unlucky, or was wearing them unusually. Mine have all lasted a minimum of 2 years, then shown/felt some sole wear, nothing else.

The staff have always been friendly and quick to reply, and even showed heartfelt emotion and empathy for me after I'd shared a serious health problem.

The only disappointment is 1-2 years ago the dimensions of my favourite and most regular shoe, have become significantly narrower. I'm not sure why. The result is the don't fit my feet anymore. My feet are wide. Hopefully this review helps them to review the width of their everyday shoes. Losing a regular customer to dimension changes is a concern. Overall they are tad shorter too. Roominess used to be Freet's major strength.

The last 1-2 years, occasionally shoes arrive with different dimensions, one longer/shorter than the other.

In the last 1-2 years I can only think the manufacturer changed, or the same manufacturer's quality has dropped quite a lot.

Several reviews on here have mentioned dimension issues, so I feel it's a fairly widespread, genuine problem.

Look forward to coming back, when the width, general roominess and sizing consistency improves. Rooting for you. Thank you

Poor quality. After wearing them a few times, the shoe comes loose from the sole and is no longer waterproof.
I advise everyone against buying these shoes.

I bought the Freet Mudee in June 2022 and it lasted me through from then till Jan 2025, where the glue failed and the sole came away. I was only wearing them on the wet and cold days and found hem comfortable. I fould it sized to wearing thick socks which is what you tend to wear in the cold months! I would say that the grip could be better and it looks like the Mudee 2 addresses this. I shall find out when they arrive!

I've had several Freet shoes. The soles don't last particularly long and their customer service is poor. I'd go elsewhere...

I've ordered a barefoot shoe size 46, checked multiple times if I've ordered the correct size. In the box was a size 37. The retour process is a PIA. Avoid this company.

Shoes started to get damaged on the sole after only 2.5 months, cheaper than vivo barefoot (awful experience there too) but this shows unforch.

I bought a pair of Tundra sometime time ago my 3rd pair of Freets, I had positive expectations of the then new Tundras as I wanted waterproof boots with better mud traction. To start with they were great, I did a positive early review of them. I thought they had cracked the allusive waterproof boot. They were very waterproof to start with, comfortable, good in the mud, warm even in sub zero temps. However in just under 6 months one boot began to leak, failed glue at the top where sole meets upper boot. I also had problems with the top lace fixing eyelet failing. I paid for the eyelet repair out of my own money and reglued the sole with Gorilla glue. The boots leaked again. I was so disappointed because they are great in many ways, however as a part-time outdoorsman I needed a waterproof boot, they failed too quickly, considering the price. but too late to ask for a refund! This experience has put me off buying from Freet again. Such a shame

- Amazing customer service
- Great, hardy boots that last
- Ethical company

If you want some high quality shoes, and to support an ethically upstanding company, look no further. I cannot sing their praises highly enough.

I wanted some barefoot shoes, but sadly my feet are quite wide, and didn't fit Xero's, and going by anyasreviews, the other brands wouldn't be worth trying with wide feet. But the Freet Mudee and Tundra were perfect. I tried some of their trainers, but sadly my feet were still slightly too wide for them (I'd recommend Skinners 2.0 Socks for anyone with very wide feet looking for a truly barefoot type trainer/running shoe).

The returns process to try out different sizes was extremely user friendly and either free or cheap.

Also, I was unable to return the shoes for a while due to various personal problems. I contacted Freet past the return window and they reassured me that it wasn't a problem, as long as they were as-new, I could return them later. I eventually did with no issue (compassionate people).

There are some other reviews here complaining about the quality of the Mudee and the Tundra, saying they're coming apart after months of use. I've had both of mine for over a year (longer than the others) and have experienced zero issues. They're both still going strong. And I have a few friends who have worn Mudee's for years without any issue.

Also, there's a review saying that the "York" model is more rigid than normal shoes. This doesn't reflect my experience.

It is about a year that I am wearing freet shoes and I am happy overall. The design is not the most appealing, but they are confortable, cheap and customer service works fine. I had an issue with my last order and within a week I got my refund and I was offered a free delivery for my next purchase. So far, they didn't wear out as other have experience. In 1 year I keep switching between two pairs, maybe this is why. So far the best barefoot shoes for my feet

Freet shoes bought in late April for £85 started falling apart in July, with the fabric lining in both shoes developing holes. I emailed the customer service, sharing photos and asking for repair, replacement or refund - and was readily given a 50% rebate. I cannot be too upset about Freet's customer service, but I doubt that I will be buying their shoes again.

I ordered multiple sizes from the US store and kept one and returned the other with no issues. I just bought my second pair. This is the only brand of shoes that are wide enough for my feet so I hope they stick around for a while! Wearing them for hiking and backpacking, seem to be holding up well. The sizing does seem to vary per style.

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.
