Comfortable straight out of the box. Perfect for wet walks and my job at a forest school/nursery. Keep my feet toasty too.

First pair of Freet and I gotta say

First pair of Freet and I gotta say... THEY ARE GREAT! These are completely waterproof and light enough that I still run trails in them. Well done Freet, the perfect pair of Boots!

Not for x wide square feet

I bought the Mist in size 42 (I usually wear 41). My feet are 25,5 cm long and 10,5 cm wide with square toes. Not easy to find the right shoe! The length and width of the sole were perfect. Unfortunately I found the top material too tight against my forth toe. I didn't want to go a size bigger for fear of tripping. I am sad that I had to return them.

So far so good! Got these a few weeks ago and have had a chance to wear them in some fairly soggy

So far so good! Got these a few weeks ago and have had a chance to wear them in some fairly soggy and muddy conditions already. Feet are dry and warm, they are pretty comfy to wear, and have a solid grip which is actually what I like in a more sturdy boot. The only thing I'd suggest to the freet team is to make the little silver lace holders a tiniest bit tighter as I've noticed the laces slip out sometimes as I'm doing them up. Otherwise very happy and highly recommend

Very light but stiff at the bending area

The shoes are extremely light and, in my opinion, very good looking! However, for the first couple of minutes every time I wear them, they hurt the top of one of my feet at the point where the shoe bends after the forefoot. After a couple minutes, when the shoes lose a bit of stiffness this goes away. But it has happened every time now (worn about 10x). I also find the tongue to be tricky to get into a good position as it's a little padded which can bunch up in places you don't want.

Best pair of Freet I've worn yet thanks

Best pair of Freet I've worn yet thanks...comfortable, supportive yet flexible and so far so good with waterproofing and traction.
I went for usual size rather than one up and a good fit for me. I wear all day and hike for 3 of these hours.

Good quality

I wear size 7 to 7.5 and the size 8 is a perfect fit. More robust sole than other barefoot I've had and they remain dry on a 30 minute walk in wet grass.

Very lightweight

Very lightweight, incredibly flexible and waterproof boots. Perfect for autmn/winter/spring walks when there is dew on the grass and you don't want wet feet. I love the foot shaped toe box which is so comfortable.

Incredibly comfortable

Probably the most comfortable hiking boots I’ve ever owned. Lightweight, flexible, waterproof and with plenty of room for my toes. I wore them all day in the Alps and my feet felt fantastic. The grip could be a little better on very slippery wet rocks, but otherwise I absolutely love them!

Not waterproof in any meaningful way

After a few weeks of light wear, if I walk the dog through wet grass both the shoes let in water and my socks end up soaking wet.

Hi Natascha, we’re really sorry to hear this. We’ve had excellent results with the waterproofing on Mist, so it sounds like this pair may have fallen short during manufacture.
Please drop us a line at freet@freetbarefoot.com and we’ll get this sorted for you.
Thanks for flagging it with us.

Size 9 Mist boots

I thoughts on the size 9 Mist boots purchased in August 26. Admittedly the weather is still good so hardly worn them so far.
The quality of the boots is excellent. The width of the toe box gives me plenty of room for my wide bunion feet. Maybe I have fat toes but found I the height of the toe box may press on my toes. I suspect I should have gone up a half size to 9.5, but didn't read the returns policy so will have to live with them.

Really comfortable and lightweight

Really comfortable and lightweight. These boots have stood up to rainy northern days and handled muddy trails with ease. They are not insulated but I think due to the waterproof nature they do feel warmer than other hiking boots. I also wish they were in other colours!
I have narrow feet with a very high instep and the fit is great. True to size - I am an EU42 and the 42/8 is great, though I wouldn’t wear with thick socks.

Norway Approved

The first two hikes with my new Freet Most in Norway were wonderful. This ist the shoe that I was searching for all the time. It held my feet dry in wet and muddy conditions and was never slippery on wet stones.

First time buying

My first pair of Freets and I've since ordered two more in different styles. They're the first things for a long time that I can wear without orthopedic insoles - normal trainers, boots and other barefoot trainers all need them.

I wanted something I could wear around the stable yard that were waterproof and these seem to be fitting the bill nicely. Fine in shallow mud and hose off before leaving without leaking. Comfortable, and this very lame human can actually walk in them!

Awesome shoes!

Awesome shoes, extra wide so I can wear my toe spacers in them, and very comfy! You make great shoes.

Excellent

On the basis of one 8K, brisk, lowland hill walk over mixed terrain the Mists lived up to their description as a lightweight, agile boot. They felt very comfortable throughout and kept my feet dry through a few shallow streams and a few areas of squelchy bog. They do not yet match the supreme comfort of my very well worn Tundras, although I did appreciate the extra protection and grip of the new soles down steep gravel paths. (The soles of the Tundras are now rather thin).
I was not sure whether to buy the Mists or the Mudee2, which seemed a closer match to my old Tundras. The lower price of the Mists almost put me off - where do the cost savings come from? But curiosity got the better of me and unless long term wear is an issue I have not been disappointed.
