Conventional shoes have what is called a "heel-to-toe drop", where the heel is raised. Even trainers often have this! Barefoot shoes instead have what is called a "zero drop", where the sole is completely flat along the entire length of the shoe. This is the natural state of our foot and when you wear barefoot shoes you will use muscles that you would not use in conventional shoes.
Improved strength and balance
Have you ever worn a pair of shoes that forces your toes into shapes they don't like? This is quite often the case with conventional shoes. All barefoot shoes have a wide toe box, the area where your toes normally sit in the shoe. By allowing your feet to spread out naturally, you improve your posture and alignment, which means less pain and discomfort.
Improves sensory inputs
Did you know that the area of the brain that receives sensory input from the feet is the same size as the area that receives input from the hands? If you wear conventional footwear, you can deprive your brain of this connection! Barefoot or with minimalist shoes, the brain receives much more sensory input from the feet, which helps improve movement and relieve pain.
