The choise is up to you. Most of our customers use our shoes as we intended: without socks. However, the term "barefoot shoes" does not necessarily exclude wearing of socks. From a health perspective, it doesn't matter if you wear socks in your barefoot shoes. It only affects the feeling when wearing them.

Yes, generally barefoot shoes have a minimal sole, but for people who are not used to wearing barefoot shoes to begin with, a temporary transition from thicker insoles to minimal insoles can be a good idea.

Barefoot walking or running in barefoot shoes offers a variety of benefits, including: freedom of movement for the feet, reactivation and strengthening of the foot muscles, basis for healthy foot development, better blood circulation, activation of the vein pump sensory feedback. The stronger ground feeling also leads to better balance and surefootedness, as the body can optimally adjust to the ground conditions. As a result, the natural gait is maintained, the joints can move freely and naturally and perform their task unhindered.

All Naturcontact models (except Arctic Contact 2.0) can be washed in the washing machine at 30 degC on the gentle cycle. For cleaning, however, it is recommended to gently clean soiled areas with a damp cloth without using detergent. Shoelaces are generally not suitable for machine washing as they can fray quickly. We recommend washing the laces separately by hand. Please treat Arctic Contact 2.0 differently due to the fur, in which case only hand washing is recommended.

Naturcontact barefoot shoes are the ideal partner for a variety of adventures and uses.

Whether you're hiking through mountain landscapes, jogging in the park, practising yoga or Pilates, travelling, working out in the gym or simply going about your daily life, our barefoot shoes promise you maximum comfort, unrestricted natural freedom of movement and a sense of connection with the environment.
