It's honestly messed up how good these shoes are. I've got the Dropknot Knit plimmies and the Chukka boots and it feels like an insane decision to wear anything else!
Great customer service as well! I was struck with double bad luck with packages going missing and Feelgrounds sent out a new shipment no problem.
I can't speak highly enough about these shoes or this company. I love that a barefoot shoes company has finally made barefoot shoes that look really cool!
Also, when I had an issue with one of my pairs the customer service was exceptional. They helped me out so much and I appreciate all the work they do!
10/10
I've been buying their products for a few years now (boots, sandals, sneakers), and up until recently, I had never had any issues. That changed with my latest order, where, after a few months, I experienced a problem with the product. I reached out to customer service and explained the situation in detail, including photos and how I had been storing the shoes.
To my surprise, they got back to me within just a few hours, asking for a bit more information and immediately offering a solution. They also specifically asked for a photo of the label inside the tongue so they could check the entire production batch—proof that they truly care about their product and their customers.
This will be my fifth pair of Feelgrounds shoes, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. :)
Este será mi 5º par de calzados FeelGrounds, y espero que pronto sean más :).
It’s my second order here and my second barefoots as well. I love that they don’t look weird (they actually look cool) and made my transition to barefoot shoes painless.
Also, customer care is excellent. Even though I had some delivery issue (because I didn’t put my phone number), Sabine was in touch with carrier and reached out to me, so my worries were all gone. I got the second pair today and I’m really happy with them. Big thanks to her and all the team!
I was kind of skeptical because I’ve only owned ‘regular’ shoes before but as soon as I put these on I was shocked, my toes like actually have space now… Even with a roomier toe area, the shoe still feels very secure to my foot and despite the thinness on the bottoms, they are very comfy! Granted it’s only been 1 day of owning them but I’m really enjoying the shoes so far. I do wish they had more colors, but otherwise 10/10!
The shoes are decent but you better hope you get the right size and you better hope you like it. Otherwise you’re out 50% of your purchase. Even less if you repurchase. Their return policy is HORRENDOUS. 0/10 vivobarefoot, hell, even Amazon whitin are way better.
Dear Said,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We truly understand your concerns regarding our return shipping policy, and we sincerely apologize for any frustration this has caused.
Like many companies, we face costs for both shipping and returns. In an effort to maintain transparency, we have decided to separate these costs rather than include them in our product prices. This approach allows us to be upfront and encourages customers to make informed decisions when purchasing.
For full transparency, our shipping and return policies are available on our website and can be reviewed before placing an order. Additionally, when returning an entire order, the original shipping costs are always refunded. In this case, the only cost to cover is the return shipping, for which we offer a discounted return label that can be selected when registering the return.
If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out via feelgrounds.com/contact—we’re happy to assist!
Best regards,
Sabine
I’ve been shopping for the “it” pair of Chelsea boots everywhere* for the last few years. Ended up acquiring a relatively pricey brand about two years ago. While the shoe is stylish, I noticed that at the end of the day my feet would be aching from fatigue given its bulky soles… not to mention the bunions I got when breaking in. Enter my black FG Chelsea boot, which I wore to work for the first time today: speechless! My feet are “happy feet,” I have zero exhaustion and not a single bunion in sight. I look forward to purchasing the same boot in two other colors and hope to keep them long-term, for as long as they allow me to. Thanks FG!
Very comfy winter option. The all black version is simple and easy to style. I'm still adapting myself to the fact that the shoe is very "flat" and wide in its form when I compare it to my standard shoes. But that's the basic idea of barefoot shoes. I'm just still getting used to it.
Great fit, very light, especially for winter shoes, comfortable and stylish
I opted for the Winter Patrol (older/previous model). They are extremely warm and comfortable and the materials feel good quality.
Bought a pair of Chelsea boots, my first pair of Feelgrounds. I was expecting to have to do some walking with them before they were comfortable, but they were super comfortable from first try. Very warm but without making my feet too hot or sweaty. My feet are 24 cm long and I ordered the size 38 and they fit perfectly even with thick socks. They look very stylish as well and don’t make me feel like I’m wearing clown shoes. I wear them all day, everyday, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
This was my 1st purchase of barefoot shoes.
I have been thinking about it for a long time. I’m very happy with my shoes and delighted to have found a company with vegan products
I have several pairs, Seaside Twill being my favorite, as a summer person! I love the comfort, the elegant designs, the environment and animal friendly materials and the amazing overall experience of shopping at Feelgrounds. My orders always arrive fast and so far everything has been perfect!
I now have multiple pairs of Feelgrounds (Chelseas are my favorites!!) and I love all of them, especially the models with vegan leather. I am so happy to have wide toe box minimalist shoes that tick every box for me!
I have recently purchased my second pair of Chelsea boots as the first have proven so comfortable. I wear the boots all day in a job that requires quite a lot of standing and they are so comfortable. Love these.
I recently got a pair of the winter boots in tan color and I’ve been reaching for them the most this winter season. I have 3 or 4 other brands which are also a decent product but FGs are top tier. I got my mom a pair and she says her knee pain goes away when she wears them. I’m encouraging her to look into some FG sneakers.
My recent feedback which I was asked to share: "I'd like to take the opportunity to commend you and the company on your excellent customer service. I have bought three pairs of shoes from you in the last couple of years, and each time the service has been outstanding”.
I'm extremely pleased with the shoes I got. They look lovely and are very comfortable. I'll be buying again!
I originally saw this brand last year in 2024 and I finally got them. I bought a pair of boots and a pair of sneakers and I am in love with them. I love how they don’t make my feet hurt or make my feet feel smooshed. I’ve been looking for shoes like this forever, and I’m gonna buy from this brand constantly now. 😭💜🥹
Very comfortable and wearable shoes. Great customer service. Keep up the good work.
The best barefoot shoes ever tried. They are comfortamble, allowing the foot to spread. I get three pairs this time, going up a Number in the size (44) as opposed to my previous model and It was best decisione ever made.
I've bought the original knit twice after wearing them daily for 1,5-2yrs. Just bought the patrol winter for the colder days coming up. There's no need to break them in, they're instantly comfy. I've tried other brands in the meantime but send them back. There's no comparison and no going back. I'm a forever customer.
I have 4 shoes/boots myself and have gotten several as gifts too. I love their variety of vegan barefoot shoes and I’ve had only wonderful experiences with their customer service!
I'd like to first highlight the great customer support i've had before my purchase, be it for size, price, or model. I already had the same experience when buying my first pair, so that's obviously a consistent quality with Feelgrounds.
As for the Patrol Winter themselves, i bought the former version mainly because it was cheaper, in grey.
I chose to go 1 size up, since i planned to only wear them with thick winter socks. They fit fine, but not as perfectly as my highrise knit, which were my normal size. So as far as my feet are concerned, 1/2 size up would have been a better choice, unfortunately that was not an option. The lining makes the shoe very comfortable.
The soles are great, the upper material seems robust, it's easy to clean, my feet don't get wet. The grey color is a bit on the ugly side, olive or black would have probably suited my taste better: the pictures on the site weren't very helpful for pinpointing the exact hue i'd be receiving.
Overall, i'm very satisfied with those shoes, and this comforts me in making Feelgrounds my main, if not exclusive, barefoot shoes dealer.
I have a hightop mesh, a hightop leather and winter patrol shoes and all are great.
Especially the winter boots are very comfortable, stylish and very high quality.
