Pace

Love my new barefoot shoes! They are more comfortable than another one I bought before.

This is the second time I purchase Pace shoe's. The first pair I purchased in 2021 and they are almost worn out. It has been the best pair of shoes I ever had. It feels like not to wear any shoes at all. I wear them everyday except when the weather is wet.

Comfortable and durable, and still kicking after 1.5 years of use. The lacing goes a bit high, which will cause issues for people (such as myself) who like to leave their shoes tied and use them like slip-ons. To fix this, I replaced the laces with elastic bands, creating an amazing slip-on shoe that feels like I'm wearing nothing more than light sandals!

To point out something that could be better, I'll say the footbed lining has worn away more quickly than I would like, but they are still very useable.

I bought my Pace back in 2022 and they are mostly a daily driver. They've been through rain, cycling, long walks and mild jogs. My expectations where a bit higher as they are starting to fall apart sooner than I would have liked as I aim for shoes that last me 4-5 years as 40-50 euros/year for a pair is steep for my budget.

As my first pair of barefoot style shoes, it's been a great experience and I don't see myself going back. I've become more conscious of my stride and what my joints should be doing. Also building toughness on my feet by feeling the terrain is quite a neat thing, although I've been surprised a few times of how different regular shoes handle gravel comparatively.

In terms of quality, here are my peeves. The soles are starting to tear from the lining as the glue has given way near the arch and the toes (high mobility areas). Which will end up being the primary reason that I'll end up replacing them. The lining around the toes stretched after the first year of use, making them less aesthetic although that's not their primary appeal, but that's to be expected from wear & tear.

I would recommend them for someone that won't put them through bad weather as the lining IS very breathable but also means wet socks and toes and eventually bad odor. Good for cycling, mild exercise and casual use on good weather.

I don't know what I could have done differently to extend their life. Comfort and value makes it 3 stars. Quality a -1.5 and -0.5 comfort due to lining stretch.

I’m absolutely loving my Pace shoes. I find them to be the perfect balance of barefoot and enough protection. My feet tend to run warm, and these shoes would probably be too warm for me in the summer. I love them!

Great shoes, do what it says ion the tin. Very comfortable, even for someone just setting out on the barefoot path.

Brilliant footwear - I wear them all the time, including 5km dog walks through woods and fields. Genuinely, they are so comfortable and in someways I regret not buying them years ago.

I ordered the Freet Pace for running on mixed surfaces, so far I have great experiences with the shoes :) It is really comfortable, lightweight, and wide enough for my feet.

How anyone walks around without the benefit of barefoot shoes is perplexing. And if you have problematic feet (flat and wide), barefoot shoes are a game changer.
A lot of people say barefoot shoes are ugly and weird looking - I couldn't disagree more. So the freet Pace.has two very important features; out of the box they're comfortable, supportive and very barefoot feeling. What I like the most about the style is that it has a minimalist look - sharp but casual, and without all the loud branding most shoes have.
Have not tried them on the trail yet but the sole looks capable of light day hikes and treks through town.
Priced in USA very reasonable

I love my new Freet Barefoot "Pace" shoes. Not my first pair of barefoot style shoes, but these are definitely the nicest and most comfortable. I have already walked many miles in them,across a variety of surfaces including cobbles and tarmac. No tired feet at the end of the day as with some of the other makes. Really happy with my choice.

They look decent and feel comfortable.
Got them a week ago and my broad feet are happy.

This is my second pair of the Pace. I continue torun in the older pair, using the new pair for daily use. The most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever had. I have other pairs of fret and this one is just perfect for the warmer days

Comfortable, good looking, wide toe box, great materials. These are my favorite shoes now.

I've only had my Pace for a fortnight but I am very happy so far with regards to how they are performing for their intended use - jogging on pavement.

I decided to write reviews for a couple of different Freet shoes that I own, having appreciated the reviews of others on this and other sites, including Anya's Reviews (which I highly recommend for anyone looking to buy barefoot shoes). I bought a pair of EU45-sized Pace 1 shoes in black in July 2025. I use them for everyday wear around where I live - city pavements but also the paths, with both good and rough surfaces, in the local parks and open spaces. These shoes are extremely comfortable, and I would definitely buy them again and recommend them to others for daily wear. For a barefoot shoe, they look quite "normal", and I would go so far as to say that they are a handsome shoe. Also nicely-designed, well-made and lightweight. I am not sure how waterproof they are, and I wouldn't necessarily want to wear them on long hikes or anywhere they would be likely to get muddy (from a cleaning and appearance perspective), but they seem more or less showerproof. For everyday use, though, these can be confidently recommended.

I am enjoying walking in the Freet Pace. I do wish there would be more half-sizes, though, as I had to round up to a whole size.

Pace

The Freet Pace are great. I love these! They're comfortable, true to size, and have an ample toe box for my feet.

Just as discribes

I love the Freet Pace. It is my favorite barefoot shoe for several reasons. The toe box is great, the material is soft, flexible and breathable, and the sole is super flexible. It is also very versatile for use as a trail, athletic or casual shoe. In addition I really like the looks of it vs the typical athletic shoe. It is difficult to find a shoe with all these qualities that doesn't look like the standard athletic shoe. I hope Freet never stops making this shoe!

Perfect fit. Comfortable and good quality.
Improved my feet within 2 weeks.

These are my second pair of Freet Pace shoes. So comfortable. Great fit. Swift delivery..what's not to like?

ii bought the same shoe Pace almost two years ago and it was the only shoe i was wearing everyday. The got worn outso i ordered the same model. I find that they are different fromthe ones i had bought two years ago, sort of the sole or what is in the shoe is sort of harder and more,it gives me less the feeling of barefoot and it feels warmer...

Have tried many barefoot shoe brands and this is by far my favorite, especially for running.

Pace

Foarte comozi, aerisiți, mărimea corespunde. Perfecți pentru office, oraș, plimbări în natură.

Fits like a sock and is super comfortable on the road and trail with enough grip for dirt and gravel. My 5k is much more comfortable than a standard running shoe with plenty of room for my toes to spread naturally and just enough support for asphalt and concrete.

Long time Xero Prio wearer here. Wore them all the time; working, working out, chilling. Loved them. Well, I started getting a painful corn on the outside of my left foot that wouldn't resolve. I needed more room than the Prios had. Did some research that brought me to the Freet Pace. Game changer! I take the inserts out and my feet are happy again. I will be checking out some of their other styles for sure.
