Hardwearing, protective minimalist gym shoes that let your feet do the walking – meet the BARE-XF™ PRO. These premium, high performance barefoot shoes comfortable and highly flexible, but at the same time are packed with protective features to allow you to perform at your best. Constructed using premium techniques, the BARE-XF™ PRO benefits from a fully seamless interior and an inner sock that’s attached to the upper. This sock like fit, together with the absence of a midsole, gives you that natural, close to the ground feel. This premium construction also doesn’t compromise on comfort – these are shoes you can wear all day long, whether inside or outside of the gym. We’ve designed the BARE-XF™ PRO for those who want to tackle hardcore workouts as naturally as possible. Alongside our renowned sticky rubber grip, the shoe gives you protection where you need it most. A KPU cupped heel provides you with better stability when lifting heavy, and a KPU Adapterweb overlay also gives additional structural support and protection for your foot. There’s also a toe bumper to guard against painful stubs when performing burpees, and ROPE-TEC technology is integrated at the lateral and medial arch for protection during rope climbs. The extremely durable BARE-XF™ PRO gives your feet the protection they need, while not compromising natural performance. Features Grippy Rubber Outsole Keep your footing with our 2.5mm thick grippy rubber outsole. Lightweight grip for any gym-based exercise, including weightlifting, cardio, functional movements, walking and running. No Midsole = More Natural Feel Feel the ground beneath you. A close to the ground design gives you a more natural/barefoot feel. Most gym shoes have a thick wedge of midsole foam to cushion impacts. The BARE-XF™ PRO does away with this to enhance spatial awareness and control of your feet. Protective Features The BARE-XF™ PRO benefits from a number of protective features, while still retaining that natural feel. A toe bumper guards against painful stubs during exercises such as burpees. A KPU cupped heel gives you better stability when lifting. And a KPU Adapterweb overlay gives the shoe more structural support and protection too. Sock-Like Fit Constructed using the sachetto method – a premium technique usually reserved for leather lined shoes – the BARE-XF™ PRO benefits from a seamless interior, as the seam is turned outwards. There is no insole in the shoe, courtesy of the BARE-XF™ PRO’s comfortable inner sock, which is stitched directly to the upper. Coupled with a stretch knit tongue and collar, the shoe is extremely comfortable and flexible - exactly the fit you want with a minimalist training shoe. ROPE-TEC Protection and durability during rope climbs. ROPE-TEC technology embedded into the midsection of the outsole and around the arch of the foot gives protection from friction on rope climbs, and delivers increased durability.
