I love these shoes! These are the second pair I have, first being a pair of low tops. I wear these shoes everywhere. I do wish there were some options material wise, I won't wear these in the rain or any sort of weather just to get the most life out of them as I can but otherwise I recommend them to everyone. These shoes have also helped me keep my body in the proper alignment. Anyone with an injury or sports medicine knows the body can develop mis-alignments in order compensate where a body par...

Love the shoes so far. When I bought them, I intentionally got them a half size smaller than I do for other shoes because I read in a bunch of places they would stretch and more or less mold to my feet. When I got them, they were indeed a bit small; the front of the shoe pressed on the front of my big toe a little bit. However, three weeks later (after wearing it as my normal walking shoe as well as my lifting shoe), this issue has resolved itself. I can definitely feel the difference between th...

I've worn these all day every single day for a few months shy of 2 years. I live in northern Minnesota and wore them through plenty of rain, snow, and salt (though they are not waterproof) and put them through the ringer as much as I could. Whenever they got stiff and stained from salt I did nothing to care for the leather and basically abused them. About the only thing they aren't suitable for is dynamic movements such as running or yoke carries. Any static lifting or everyday use they are good...

the boots on the left are almost a year old with heavy fabrication over 50 hours a week of use. the boots on the right are two weeks old with almost 100 hours on them. these boots have been put to the test with grinding, welding, torching, mud, water and riding motorcycles and quads and stood up with no rips or tears!! i have reconditioned the boots on the left twice and they look better than the brand new ones i bought and are more comfortable than any keen, redwing and timberland pro’s i have ...

Thought the price was a little bit high at first, but after getting my pair in the mail man was I not disappointed. Absolutely love them they look like a fairly normal slipper/moccasin/loafer very sleek a great design overall. I had wanted something I could slip on as I found myself either not tying my shoes (my also awesome ursus) or simply going strait bearfoot which I like too but isn’t so nice when you step on something working in the shop so these are great for me plan to use them as a shop...

These are my first pair of true minimalist shoes. I've been lifting in socks for the past year for all lifts except squats where I used Adidas powerlifts. I first came across Bearfoot from Squat University while working to improve technique. I bought into the theory on lifting with minimalist shoes and I really like these so far. Finished a set of Deadlifts today and they felt great! Good support and grip but still maintain a feeling of being barefoot. I really enjoy these and think the quality ...

Already purchased two. One for outdoors and one for my home gym. Tried it out first during heavy four-hour-long squat / deadlift sessions. I noticed the complete relief during and even AFTER working out. Unlike all the others shoes I ever had, you know that feeling when taking off your shoes after a long day of work or drive, and you feel a sudden relief. With Ursus it's different. Because your feet are basically comfortable all day, as if you were really walking "barefoot". I also purchased "Co...

The best shoes for my crooked feet! Seriously, I have super wide front feet, and they curve inward, making most shoes uncomfortable. But those shoes are the best. Also, using their sizing guide, I wasn't 100% sure at first. When I got my pair, they felt a bit short for my big toes. But after a few workouts they just naturally adapted to my feet. I wear them for all my workouts, even if footwear is not important for some of them (e.g. lat pull downs don't require nice shoes). I'll definitely buy...

I've had these boots for about a month now and I wear them everyday as a telecom network tech. The break in period was a few days. I treated them with mink oil and haven't had any issues, except the tops have soo much folded over leather that once it's all tightened down the leather inevitably creates some pressure spots on the top of your foot, but that eventually softens with the break in. The grip is good enough for sand, mud, gravel and dirt but slips on wet smooth concrete. The ground feet ...

Boot: 5/5 Experience 2/5 (Most of which isn't necessarily Bearfoot's fault) I had purchased the Bruins back in October when the pre-order had first been announced. Shipments were supposed to be mid Novemberish, which was delayed into December. My boots began to ship mid December, and after two weeks the shipment was stopped at the border (I live in Canada) and returned to Bearfoot. I messaged the company and they looked into it, a couple days later the company reshipped the boots, and offered t...

I usually cannot wear any shoe for more than a couple of days, and this being my first pair of Bearfoot, I was excited to give it a go. These fit like a glove...and I have been in them everyday since I got them a week ago. Ouy of the box, onto my feet with no problems. I am having less and less issues with my heel spurs...and my over pronation on my left foot is not a big issue in these boots. I know it's only a week...but I can feel the difference they are making in my legs and feet. The craf...

Literally the best thing I think I’ve done for my physical health and movement. First day I got them I wore them through a 12 hour shift and walking on all types of terrain: wood, concrete, asphalt, grass, mud, heavy gravel, etc… and usually after a days work my back is killing me but with these I feel like I could run down a deer for miles with a spear! My mind feels sharper, I feel less agitated and irritable, and overall freeing! I literally want to buy all my friends and family these shoes a...

Hey bearfootshoes fam! I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve been waiting for these shoes and have been anxious to see if I would like them or not…The verdict?! I freakin am in love with these shoes. These are the most comfortable lifting shoes, work out shoes, casual shoes, and minimalist shoe I have ever worn. Thank you for putting so much detail and thought into the materials, the sizing, the shaping, and just overall I’m grateful that I bought these shoes. Especially...

Great experience ordering from Bearfoot. Ordered a pair one size down originally because my normal size 10.5 Converse seemed like it would match the 10 in Bearfoots if you compared the sze chart. They were too tight, I should have followed the guide to order your normal size. Regardless, I had them shipped back within a day and my new 10.5 pair arrived a week or so later and they are fantastic. Fit is perfect, a little snug on the top but I'm sure that will break in and conform to my foot as the...

I waited almost 3 months to write my review. I didn’t want to upload a picture or video with a brand new pair that didn’t even have a scuff on them! These have been used seven days a week in a machining facility that doesn’t require steel toe. Completely broken in after two weeks. The leather became incredibly soft, and the sole became very pliable. It has gotten a great patina to it as well. I would recommend these to anybody that needs a pair of boots. whether it be for work, office, going ou...

My favorite pair of boots!! I literally wear them for everything. From house work, exploring, hiking, even just walking around the house. The Bruin boot is the MOST comfortable piece of footwear. I did 6 years Active Infantry, and feet are a priority. These will be my go to from now on, period. Guys and gals, don't hesitate, don't second guess. Just order these. Oh and the smell of leather!!! Let me tell you, as soon as you open the box it covers the house in a beautiful, rugged scent. And after...

The Ursus HT are excellent, easily the best training shoe I've ever used. I've tried everything from AdiPower to No Bull and these Bearfoot Ursus HT stand above them all. I have a wide foot so some of the more widely known lifting shoes were never really comfortable for me as my foot was constantly scrunched up. Narrow shoes would not allow me to keep my great toe and pinky toe glued to the floor which is not a problem with my Bearfoot Ursus HT. Combine the wide toe-box with all the other featur...
