Flex

Arrived a lot quicker that estimated. Very comfortable right out of the box and a great fit. Have worn them for many miles already.

This is probably the most confortable shoe I aver run with. It is wide enough in mid foot and forefoot. Very flexible. The adjustment is great even if I found the laces to be much too long. My disappointment comes from the lining which is not durable and that is frustrating. It wears out where my big toe hit in the upper. I sue it only for running 4 times a week. I cannot make an entire year with 1 pair because of this. The rest of the shoe looks like new even the outsole. Only for this, I don't purchase this model anymore :( It is already expensive to order from Canada.

Beautiful sneaker that gives me the right summer feeling while walking in the city on hot ground. I have enough space for my toes and for the foot itself when the heat is too stressful. I love it!

I love the sole of these! It's just rhin enough and very flexible. The grip is great. The toebox in very eide and eould suit many foot types. I wish that there was a women's version with less volume, because I have to tie these all the way and wear an insole for them to hug my foot properly. These are great for high volume feet and high arches. I have a low volume wide foot. The shoes are quite wide and the material is a bit stretchy and this adds to the difficulties of tightening them properly. They are suitable for light running, but probably not for high intensity because of the stretchiness of the fabric. My feet are 25,2 and 25,5 cm long and I ordered dize 41 with the insole lenght of 25,8 cm. In reality the shoes are longer than the insole, so these fit perfectly and I measured them with the 12plus meter and measured around 26,5 cm. They are very soft and comfy, but more suited to men because of the volume. The two pairs of laces are of poor quality and way too long, so I had to swap them. The customer service is awesome! I have ordered from Freet before, but had to return most models, because the volume of their shoes is simply too much for most women's feet. I will stick with my Flex pair, because they were great price on sale and they still suit me well enough for light trail walks and jogs. I would be willing to pay full price if there were women's models and also some more colours that would look less manly. A great brand non the less and I love it that they offer so many vegan models! Hopefully not my last pair! ♡

I have run almost 1000 km with the Flex Freet and I am delighted. And I could run more kilometres if it weren't for my way of stepping, which has worn down the heel part. I use them to run in a nearby forest, so I use them for light trail (not for mountain). I had to put the 6 mm insole, instead of the 3 mm one, so as not to feel too much of the gravel in the forest, and that combination was perfect for me.
I love the lacing system of these shoes, because by pulling the ends it adjusts completely at all points (the Pace Freet model has the same system).
Note that they are not winter shoes, because they are so light that you can feel cold. I don't see this as something against them; I see it as a characteristic of the shoe to make it more versatile for the rest of the year.
Note that I have already bought a second pair, taking advantage of an offer, to continue enjoying the running sensations of this shoe.
Please note that I have several Freet shoes: Flex, York, Richmon, Pace, Connect 3, Boote and Keld. I also tried other models but had to return them because I wear a size 48 and these models were too small (and there is no size larger than 48). The models I returned were: Feldom, Calver, Mudee and Vibe.
Summary: The Flex Freet are versatile shoes for running on asphalt and also for light trail running. They are also nice for casual wear. A good investment.

Great start - really comfy, I can feel the ground through the sole to a nice extent, and the shoes are really flexible. I've only been wearing them for 2 weeks so have yet to see how they wear, especially on the sole.

Daughter loves them.

Great

Feels a bit small at first, I ordered size 12 and I'm a size 11.5, but overall very comfortable, with wearing in needed.

This is my first pair of zero-lift shoes, and I could not be happier. They were comfortable right out of the box. I wear them all day at work, so breathability is a must, and the Flex are fantastic in this regard.

Very impressed with Flex shoes, very comfortable and so far, appear to be very durable. Even more impressed with the customer service, had an issue initially, that was resolved immediately by Angela. That experience alone will ensure I’ll be back and buy my next shoes from Freet.

Comfortable, soft, probably needs an insole. Ideal for walking.

This is my 5 or 6 pair of these trainers. Good for running and general wear.

Ha, I got this review request and realized I hadn't even tried on my new pair. I compared them to the sizing of my last pair to ensure it was still the same and threw them in the closet until I absolutely can't stand to be seen in public in my old pair (I'm very trusting of this brand I guess). I've now thrown my new pair on and on first inspection/wear they feel to be as good of quality as my last pair. This is a review of my first pair, purchased in 2022 (4 years ago): After four years, I have one small tear in the mesh on each shoe (same place on each shoe which makes me suspect its from rubbing on the shoe shelf), a couple places where holes have worn through the under fabric showing my white socks beneath. The glue has loosened near the toe on only one of the soles and the wear on the soles is visible but acceptable for a 4 year old shoe, I'd say. There's also wear on the back of the shoe opening from me treating them like slip-ons. All expected wear. Otherwise, my old pair is still comfortable and functioning well and I'm happy these shoes lasted me 4 years as my almost exclusive shoe. I'm in them everyday and wear them semi-formal, hiking, walking on sidewalks ... everywhere, I even get compliments (though note I don't use them as work-wear so not as many hours as some people would put them through). I found them suitable to wear much of the winter too with an insole added for extra warmth. I've loved these shoes so even though I know I can now easily find cheaper minimalist shoes on the online marketplace that my friends have recommended, I couldn't be motivated to go through the hassle of remeasuring and hunting for a new shoe when it's so easy to just reorder what you know you love and has worked. My old pair will be retired to home-gym shoes where I anticipate I'll still get a lot of life out of them. The wide toebox is superb and exactly what my feet have needed all my life. If you're new to barefoot shoes, I can't recommend the switch enough (I trialed it for a year wearing 'water shoes', which work as a cheap barefoot shoe but don't breathe well so eventually you'll want to invest in something better). Before I switched to barefoot shoes I had such bad feet/legs (I grew up on weighty Walmart shoes and pre-unevenly-worn hand-me-down shoes), I needed custom orthotics and was buying "sturdy" expensive shoes every few years as a young adult. I seemed to do well with that combo but still had chronic lower backpain which I now realize was from the "slight" heel that's in just about every traditional western shoe. Now my feet have improved so much I can walk across gravel and savour the feeling because it's like a foot massage and my back pain is gone. I'm meeting more and more young people all the time that are switching to barefoot and seeing the benefits. This isn't a fad. It's what we should have been doing for our feet all along. There is a transition period for your feet to adapt and I'd probably add an extra layer of padding to the shoe if working shifts in a mall for example (some floorings weren't made for feet), but I can't recommend the switch enough and as long as Freet maintains their quality workmanship (and keeps Flex in their line for my ease of purchase), I imagine I'll have Freet on my feet for a long time to come. (P.S. to Freet: I love the versatility of the blue, but maybe some more colour choices would be nice if I feel a need for variety in the future -- especially in the kid version. The only reason I haven't bought the kid version is because my son doesn't want to wear miniatures of mom's shoes and the blue is the only colour we love right now.)

These are very comfortable shoes that I use to practice Tai Chi in and are the second pair I have ordered. Lightweight and flexible, perfect for martial arts. I agree with another reviewer in that they are much better than the Flex 2 which I had to return as they were uncomfortable. Unfortunately the Flex 2 is going to replace these Flex shoes.

Great service. Fast shipping accros Europe

Shoes are perfect. Much better than the flex 2 shoes. Please keep making these shoes.

La miglior scarpa in assoluto, ne ho due...., tuttofare.

The shoes work well, but run long. Chose not to order a size smaller. The shoe laces are ridiculously long, and I need to double tie and tuck into the lacing of shoe to avoid them dragging on ground.

Better than my Merril Vapor Gloves

The Flex trainers are very comfortable and a good replacement for another brand of barefoots I had. I wear them for boxing and gym work and they are flexible and help me connect with the ground. They are reasonably priced compared to some other brands and my second pair of Freet's. I would recommend giving them a try.

Ok...conpared to the Grolunda I also bought I feel for the extra money not any better

I love these shoes. Super comfy and a pleasure to put on. I look forward to wearing them!

Great fit. Comfortable.

My Freets are perfect for TaiChi. I have neuroma in one foot which is usually numb but I can balance much better with my new shoes.
Thank you also for the excellent customer service. I received a replacement pair for a faulty pair within two days and returned the faulty one for free.

The„purchase“ was a replacement due to material defect. The personell was competent and quick. I was 100% satisfied. Thank you.

Good communication when I asked a question about sizing. The shoes arrived quickly and I began wearing them the same day and have continued as they are so comfortable. Very happy.
