Love these

These fitted great and felt comfortable out of the box walking round the house. After a 10km test run the following day I was confident enough to run a trail marathon in them the following weekend.

The terrain covered wet tarmac, long grass, wood chipped path, dry singletrack and thick muddy boggy sections, the shoes were secure and grippy on all surfaces.

It wasn’t until near the end or that run that my friend asked how my shoes were doing that I actually thought about them, which to me is the ultimate compliment to how they performed.

Good option for Trail

I've been running with the Freet Feldom 2 for approximately 200 km.
The size is perfect for me - I wear a size 48 (with the previous model, the Feldom 1, the same size 48 was too small for me, as my toes would touch the front of the shoe). So I could say that this model is true to size.
The shape of the foot is perfect for me, with enough room in the forefoot. They fit my feet very well.
One weak point for me is the lacing system, with flat laces. I prefer the cylindrical lacing system of the Flex, Connect 3, or Pace models, using circular eyelets or lug nuts.
On the other hand, I've slipped several times on wet rock. But this terrain isn't my usual terrain. I usually run in them through forests or on small hills, and I find them very well suited for that terrain. The sole with the lugs has enough height so that the stones on the ground are not felt too much (but enough - good balance for me for this kind of terrain).
Additional note - I have tried several Freet shoes: Flex, York, Richmon, Pace, Connect 3, Boote and Keld. I posted opinions about some of them that you can check too.

Five straight days of Disney

I just put in 5 straight days in Disney wearing these. Full disclosure, I have been doing the Freet thing for 5ish years now. The larger lugs on these shoes was more than enough cushion for 5 days of pavement pounding. >115,000 steps in 5 days (nearly 50 miles of walking) and I could have kept going if not for the end of our vacation.

Very....very comfortable

Very comfortable, wide toe and mid foot. Grip is good all rounder. Damp limestone, no grip (so has many shoes). good in light mud. original pair only lasted 350miles due to upper sides splitting from sole. However, nice replacement under guarantee, 400miles+ no such indications at the mo. Good flexibility with protection from small stones/grit/flint. A more aggressive chevron type studs would make this shoe shine in very steep terrain. Thank you freet excellent work and service to boot !.

Feldom 2

I really do love the shoe so far. Other barefoot shoes were just too narrow. These are plenty wide and I no longer have the issue of my feet hanging over the sole of the shoe. My only complaint would be that on one of the shoes all of the a bunch of the material on top of the mesh has already come unglued. Makes the durability thing a bit concerning. Other than that, love the shoe so far.

Feldom 2 shoes arrive!

I was very excited and curious when my Feldom 2 shoes arrived, wondering how the recycled plastic they are partly made of would feel on my feet, particularly when I wear them barefoot. The shoe top is soft to the feel and all over the shoe is very flexible. My only disappointment is that this flexibility causes creases across the top of the shoe as it doesn't have much structure and these creases stay in the fabric even when the shoe is off, they also dig slightly into the top of my foot particularly when I'm barefoot but not in a painful way, I just notice them while I'm walking. Overall they are very comfy and as I have only worn them 3 or 4 times, time will tell how they last. My feet, to me, are a strange shape, rectangular that are wide mainly at mid foot and ankle with short toes! This could be the reason why the top of the Feldoms are a bit 'loose' on me causing the creases, the rest of the shoe fits fine.

Comfortable, seem well made a good minimalist/barefoot starter for me

They’re comfortable, seem like they’ll work well for mixed trails and walking. Only issue is that the basic insole 2.0 is sweaty (luckily there’s an airy alternative in the box :-D
I hope to get many miles into them!

A bit of adjustmentor getting used to required

I was pleased with the look of the shoes on arrivalamd they seemed pretty comfortable. I had intended to run in these, but think that may take a bit of getting used to. Have been using themto walk into town etc and they're ok,but I am getting a little rubbing on the top of my big toes. Will see how I get on longer-term....

The Best Trail Shoes Ever!?

I have taken these shoes on several trail runs and hikes, and i absolutely love them! The outsole is solid/grippy enough for rocky terrain, but the rest of the shoe is light and breathable enough for warm weather in the Southeastern United States. I am excited for the Feldom 3's to be available in the USA (please Freet - make them available for us).

So comfy

I’m fairly new to barefoot shoes, only having come across them in my search for ‘wide’ shoes. I realised my error when finding out that wide shoes don’t necessarily mean ‘wide toe box’. The Freet Feldom’s are a revelation, I absolutely love them, and have also now purchased some freet walking boots.
I would highly recommend these shoes, they are super comfy and if you have a wide toe box, they are brilliant.

Like a slipper

Have you ever ran in your most comfortable slippers? Me neither, but these shoes feel just like that!
Only three remarks:
1) If you run mostly on hard flat surfaces (asphalt, concrete), maybe look for something with a little more cushioning.
2) As others said, they may feel a little uncomfortable in the bending part at first, but it goes away after several kilometers.
3) If you run down from steeper inclines, tie your shoelaces a bit tighter around the insteps (in the lower part of the shoe) so your feet does not slide forward too much.

Almost perfect

For me it's the perfect fit, same as my Lone Peak. The grip in mud and on grass is amazing. But when it comes to hard surfaces it is not so great, especially when it's wet. I feel it slipping on stones, so I won't take it hiking in the mountains, but for running it's tolerable and I mostly run on soft trails rather than stoney ones. I like the stack height and the combination of protection, good ground feel and flexibility. Overall, I'd say it is a good deal, especially because I got it on sale.

Coming from vivos I am pleased to finally find a barefoot shoe thats actually wide. Plenty of room for my high volume bridge as well

Finally, my dream trail shoe!

I have a Roman (square) foot shape, and finding the perfect fit has always been a struggle - until now. The Feldom 2 is an absolute masterpiece. The lockdown is superb, and the grip is outstanding on the trails. It strikes the perfect balance with its cushioning, making it ideal for both trail running and technical hiking. Overall, this is my favorite shoe to date. I have finally found the perfect shoe for my feet. Highly recommended!

Fits well at my normal size

Fits well at my normal size. Midfoot is plenty wide for my feet. Super grippy on pavements, works well in gym for compound movements. Ready to buy again once these wear out.

Great shoes!

So far I’m loving my new Feldom 2’s! They are super comfortable with an amazingly spacious toe box. The look great to boot. My only extremely minor critiques are: 1. The edges of the plasticky fabric that the laces pass through is white. It would probably look a lot better if it were able to be colored the same green. 2. The heavier duty plastucky material did dig into my foot a little at first until they were broken in a little, but it was a short lived and minor discomfort. Again, these are very minor things, but still, I love these shoes!

Best Shoes Ever for Wide Feet!!!

I should start by saying that I have been wearing the original Feldom almost exclusively for over a year now. The Feldom 2 is everything that the original Feldom was and more.

The sole of the Feldom 2 is the perfect balance between ground feel and cushioning. It is the perfect shoe for just about every activity. I use it for everyday wear, walking the dogs, working out in my backyard, etc. The sole is also super flexible, and it has excellent grip on every surface that I have come across so far.

The Feldom 2 exceeds the original Feldom in terms of fit. I loved the original Feldom because of how roomy and wide the shoe was. It was the best shoe I could find to fit my wide feet. However, while the original Feldom was roomy, it didn't fit all that snuggly. Even when I tightened the laces up all the way, I still felt that I wanted it tighter. The Feldom 2 has solved this issue. The Feldom 2 is still just as roomy and wide as the original Feldom but it fits my foot much more securely. I barely even have to tighten the laces at all to get a secure fit.

I also want to comment on the looks of the Feldom 2. The pictures of the shoe online do not do it justice. I was worried I wouldn't like the look of the shoe that much, but I actually love how it looks, and I have gotten multiple compliments on it. The only thing we need now is more color options.

The only way I can see to improve the Feldom 2 would be to stitch the soles. The soles show no signs of separating from the shoe after about a month of wear, however, I am concerned that it will happen eventually because it happened with my orignal Feldoms. I am not sure why the soles are not stitched. From what I understood, Freet was going to be stitching the second generation of every shoe except for the waterproof shoes. Stitching the soles would ruin the waterproof bootee. Since the Feldom 2 is not waterproof, I see no reason for why the soles are not stitched.

In conclusion, the Feldom 2 is the greatest shoe that I have ever worn, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who struggles to find shoes for wide feet.

Feldom 2 first impressions

The fit is great for my taste - it is very "roomy". Very light - you don't feel wearing them at all. The color looks better than the images and the quality looks great too. Lets see how long they last - i hope long enough in order to grant them as an excellent shoe.
