The perfect shoe for me, great replacement for my 4 year old Urban 2s

I have worn a pair of Freet Urban 2 (pictured beside the Citee in my image) almost daily since 2020, and sadly the sole has just started to let water in around the edges. I took the plunge and got a new pair of Citees on sale and couldn't be happier - just like the Urbans, they fit my wide-toed, high-ridged duckfeet like a glove! They are incredibly lightweight, flexible, keep moisture out and are supremely comfortable. If anything, the new design looks even better than the Urban (more like a conventional shoe, but still just as comfy). I may well buy a second pair to rotate through the winter as these will definitely be my new go-to shoe for the wetter, colder months (i.e. most of the year in the UK, haha). Thanks Freet for making the absolute best vegan-friendly minimalist footwear - I've tried a LOT of brands and yours really stand out!

Microfiber material makes you sweat

An ok design and durable sole but the synthetic upper material makes my feet sweat a lot. Unfortunately I’ll have to stop using them.

Perfect work shoe

Wouldn't change a thing. Easy to clean , comfortable , not too wide ... And stylish!
The only thing that's a little annoying is they get creases on the toe area and the left part of the upper front of the shoe ( creases from walking , normal wear )
The positive is these will iron out but if you're using a steamer I'd recommend using an iron instead because the steam is risky for the glued outsoles.

Finally, the perfect dress shoe

Dress shoes are probably the hardest option to find in barefoot, vegan shoes. These set the bar. Beautiful material (the microfiber looks exactly like my old leather Clarks), very comfortable around the city, warm if you want with thick socks. Please never stop making these!

All that said, I'd prefer shorter, thicker laces and beefier eyelets.

comfortable loafer, with just enough structure...

Nice looking casual loafer which has enough structure in the sole and body to be suitable for a long day of walking. Wish they made a black one but I found the Citee to be a similar lace up..

I like them

I have been wearing them during my commute, walking 30 minutes to and from a bus stop. They comfortable rain or shine and when you’re inside they have that new sneaker sound like when playing squash or badminton.

Excellent Shoe!

I've owned many barefoot shoes and this has been my favorite by far. Long lasting and great quality. Worn everyday for two years and they're just now starting to give out. Happy to find a casual shoe that is vegan. Lots of people compliment them, and I'm always happy to turn new people on to freet. Thank you for the great shoe!

Great Shoe for School

My kids wear these every day to school. They're very comfortable, and the replacement soles allow one pair of shoes to be worn and passed down, making these the perfect hand-me-down shoes. Really well-crafted shoes! My only wish would be the ability to have the "slider piece" available for purchase as that part does wear out over time - I usually have to use a 3rd party piece. However, I love the no-tie aspect, so I'd rather replace a small part than deal with tying shoelaces. ;)

Citee good

Very comfy and roomy, and nice to have waterproof comfy shoes. Because of the water repellent material they can get hot in warm conditions but great to have as an option if summer rain comes. I'll be wearing them more as we get into autumn.

Good value for money

Bought these as I didn't have any smart shoes and wanted some barefoot ones. They look sharp and were inexpensive. I had to walk through some mud with them and they did not let any moisture in. Only worn these once though, so cannot speak for longevity.

great Shoes

My son has wife high volume feet. These are the only shoes that fit him. They are lovely and soft and the barefoot element is great for his posture and sensory feedback.

I've been after a smarter barefoot shoe for work for a while. These fit the bill perfectly.

You won't win any style awards (like most barefoot shoes it's more performance over aesthetics), but they look quite nice.

More importantly they are very comfortable and feel very well made. They are the first vegan-friendly work shoes I've owned that haven't immediately scuffed up.

Very impressed, and will definitely buy again when needed.

Waterproof, very comfortable barefoot for men. They are also wide in ankle, On the back would be better cutout above the heel as by model feldom. It is more comfortable.

For graceful women's ankle too wide.

Good shoe at a good sale price

The shoes seem fine, but they'll probably be too warm for the summer.

It seems excellent

I bought citee shoes for £70, they look good, they are vegan, they are very comfortable. I like how they feel on top of the foot. They seem a business like type of shoe and I like it, they look a bit cheap and not durable but that's just an impression and I hope I am completely wrong about this. I gave 5 stars because they are really comfortable

Exactly what you expect from freet: comfy, well made shoes, v soft and barefoot-feel. The only thing: I changed the layout of the lacing, but this is more a personal matter

Excellent. Although I haven’t worn them properly yet, they’re very comfortable and look good. They share the same outsole as Pace, Tanga and Flex, which I think is fantastic. Perfectly foot-shaped, grippy, and light. I’ll report back when I’ve really worn them in.

Fantastic

This is the second pair I have bought. After 5 years of nearly daily wear I decided to treat myself to a new pair. Exceptional value and really comfortable (l work on my feet) and often forget to change my shoes when I get home they are that comfortable.

Hoping this pair lasts as long.

Shoes that actually fit comfortably!

These shoes are great! They have a wide toe box and actually fit my feet! I have been having a hard time finding bare foot shoes that fit me due to my really large feet! Roughly 5 inches wide. These shoes very comfortably. The soles are zero drop and have a good ground feel. The soles are just thick enough to where stepping on rocks are not uncomfortable. I have worn them for a day and will say the shoes arrive a bit stiff but will soften up as you wear them.

My only complaint is that I would not really recommend them driving (especially if you drive manual) as the back of the shoe is at an awkward height to wear it causes really bad irritation on the bursitis. IMO it kind of defeats to purpose of having an everyday shoe but can't be used for all cases.

Shoes for wide feet

I have wide feet and these shoes are fitting great, even wearing normal socks, i am still feeling comfortable. I use them to go to work, so i sped full day wearing them and still in the evening, i do not suffer.
One thing that surprised me, in the rain i had wet fingers, it seems they are letting water through. I added protective spray and will see if that helps.

Office and outdoor - Great shoe

I'm 70. This is my 3rd barefoot shoe that I've now had for over a year. My first 2 pair were from other more well known barefoot companies that didn't wear as well. My freet's are my go to shoe. I just ordered another. the first is in impressively good shape despite lots of wear, but I'm trying the York 2 slightly dressier model (the (still good for outdoors). I researched and researched to find a barefoot shoe that looked good enough for my office and functional for outdoor. I wanted one that was a reasonable balance of price, looks and function. I read the descriptions and ratings of at least 20 barefoot companies (many were good). I settled on Citee - knowing I could return it if needed. I ended up needing to try 2 sizes. They were great at communicating and customer service (very important) and helping me with advice, getting the right size and flawless returns. Now that I am know how good it is, i plan to order a 3rd Freet and get rid of the rest of my "regular" shoes, including my super ergonomic German Finn Comforts and Birkenstocks that I realize - aren't as ergonomic as barefoot.

The Citee was a dream come true for me.

The Citee was a dream come true for me. I'm a committed barefoot shoe wearer, but had trouble finding a casual/dressy shoe that was *vegan*. As luck would have it Freet, my favorite shoe company, came through. A good looking barefoot dress shoe that I can wear all day. What more can you ask for. This shoe is as comfortable as all the other Freet shoes I have bought. I purchased my usual size, 43, and it fits perfect. Well done Freet!

It is smart and looks great with my school clothes

This is a great shoe, it is smart and looks great with my school clothes. For a first barefoot shoe it would be good as it feels snug. That could be an issue with those of us who have been wearing these for a while. The fit is narrow and if you have been wearing barefoot shoes for a a while your feet will be wider - if you start with wide feet this is even more of an issue. Sizing the length is good but the fit is narrow - this is an important note. The shoes are good and I will be happy wearing them but they are narrow and don't allow much foot spread.

Freet barefoot shoes are the only ones that fully meet my needs.

Dies ist mein zweites Paar Barfußschuhe von Freet. Das erste ist das Model Tundra gewesen, dass ich seit 2 Jahren regelmäßig trage. Ich bin täglich etwa 15 Km zu Fuß unterwegs, und die Freet Barfußschuhe sind von den vielen anderen Barfußmarken die einzigen, die meinen Bedürfnissen voll entsprechen.
