Barefoot shoes as a gift: how to choose the right size

What to find out first

Ask where the recipient will wear the shoes, which style and colour they like and whether they already wear barefoot footwear. The size in a favourite pair is a useful clue, but dimensions differ between models, so the number alone is not enough.

How to check the size

Ask for current length and width measurements of both feet taken while standing. Compare the larger foot with the specific model’s internal measurements and recommended toe room. Allow for socks in winter footwear. If measurements are unavailable, choose the model together after the gift is opened.

After delivery

Before ordering, read the exchange and return conditions and deadlines, especially if giving the gift later. Try the shoes indoors on a clean surface: toes need room and the heel should stay secure without pressure. Keep the receipt and packaging as instructed by the shop.

Explore winter barefoot shoes, including Lanapura Brown, and compare measurements with the size guide.
