How to measure the length of your foot

On a hard floor, put a piece of paper against a wall.
Stand on the paper in your socks. Wear the type of socks you’d normally wear with this type of shoe.
Make sure the back of your heel is against the wall and that you’re placing your weight on your foot.
Ask someone to make a mark on the paper, at the end of your longest toe.
Measure that distance to determine the length of your foot.
It’s common to have one foot bigger than the other, so make sure you measure both feet. Pick your shoe size based on the length of your longer foot.

PLEASE NOTE: Check the sizing note before selecting the size of your shoe or boot for expert sizing recommendations. How to measure your foot size

Please note that these widths are intended only as a rough guide. We strongly recommend you measure the width of your feet before deciding which fit is best for you.

Depending on the type of activity you’re doing you may wish to go for a more precision fit (for racing for example). Equally you might prefer a wider fit if you are running longer distances or lifting heavy weights.

How to measure the width of your foot:

Make sure you’ve measured the length of your foot first. You’ll need this measurement to work out the correct width.

On a hard floor, put a piece of paper against a wall.
Stand on the paper in your socks.
Make sure your heel is against the wall and distribute weight evenly.
Trace a line around your foot and mark the widest point.
Measure the distance and compare with the width chart.

Choose the width based on your wider foot measurement.

Barefoot Training Shoe

ROPE-TEC

BOOMERANG Footbed

Product Description

Train more naturally with the BARE-XF gym shoes. Whether you're thinking of transitioning to more minimalist training shoes, or you've trained that way for a while, the BARE-XF strikes the perfect balance between freedom and protection.

Featuring a wider and anatomically shaped toe box, the BARE-XF allows your toes to naturally splay and adapt to any exercise you're performing.

Starting at the ground a 2.5mm sticky rubber outsole gives you uncompromising grip and traction whether you're lifting or performing high impact movements. The BARE-XF has no midsole cushioning and, with a zero-drop, offers a true close-to-the-ground feeling when working out.

Within the shoe, our 6mm thick BOOMERANG FOOTBED provides cushioning and energy return during challenging cardio or high impact exercise sessions.

A highly breathable, engineered air mesh upper will jeep you comfortable during your workout. At the same time a Met-Cradle wraps around your midfoot to keep you stable during high intensity exercises such as jumps.

If you're looking for a minimalist/barefoot training shoe, look no further. Introducing the BARE-XF - less shoe, more you!

Product Care

GYM FOOTWEAR

To maximise the life of your gym shoes, make sure you dry them fully after every workout. You should clean them periodically too, to maintain the breathability of the shoe’s upper.

WASHING:

For best results hand wash your shoes as close to the end of your workout as possible. To wash your shoes:

Remove the insoles and loosen or remove the laces.
Rinse your shoes under cold running water while brushing off any dirt (an old toothbrush is perfect for this).
For stubborn dirt, grime and odours we recommend using Grangers® Footwear & Gear Cleaner spray to clean and refresh your shoes.

DRYING:

Place your shoes in a warm room, an airing cupboard or outside (but not in direct sunlight) to dry. Do not dry your shoes in a tumble drier or next to radiators, fireplaces or hot summer sunlight.

You can speed up the drying process by removing the shoe’s insole and shoelaces, and by stuffing them with newspaper.

Make sure your shoes are completely dry before wearing again.

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 does away with this to enhance spatial awarenss and control of your feet.
Engineered Air Mesh Upper

A seamless and highly breathable engineered mesh and 3D printed upper construction combine to keep your feet cool and dry during intense workouts. At the same time a supportive Met-Cradle wraps protectively around your foot to keep you stable during high impact exercise.
BOOMERANG Footbed

Preserve your energy with the BOOMERANG Footbed. The insoles feature hundreds of foam beads that compress and spring back for 40% energy return during your stride. Perfect for longer cardio sessions, where maximising every bit of energy counts.
ROPE-TEC

Protection and durability during rope climbs. ROPE-TEC technology embedded into the midsection of the outsole, around the arch of the foot and the shoe's upper gives protection from friction on rope climbs, and delivers increased durability.
