Which Freets do you have, which are your favourite?
Feldom, Calver, Vibe, Keld, Howgill! I love the Keld 2 because of its amazing versatility. Great for the town, great for gentle hikes and trails. Walk, run, or chill, they do it all.
Why do you love your Freets?
Freet offers a fit that's hard to find even in other barefoot brands. Wide and deep in all aspects of the shoe. Pair that with a balance of ground feel and flexibility, and there are so many models that span the range of all activities.
Which features do you particularly like?
The wider, deeper toe box allows your toes to splay. Beautifully squared off towards the big toe side to encourage that big toe activation, contributing to an optimal gait.
What do you use your Freets for?
I use Freet shoes for lots of situations! I wear them as every day options when I know I'll be on my feet a lot or going for a hike, and I run LONG distances in Feldoms or Calvers depending on the conditions.
What is a Freet fuelled memory you have?
I pulled out the Feldom for a recent "vert day". Bag as much vertical as you can in one day! I hit the 3800m mark. Why did I choose them? I knew I'd be on my feet for a long period during the day, and wearing the Feldom meant I wouldn't risk foot issues such as blisters or bruised toes. The fit is outstanding for me, especially when it comes to all day comfort.
What are 3 words to sum up your Freets?
