Barely barefoot running shoes are designed for people who want to run naturally, strengthen their feet, and maintain proper alignment while enjoying superior comfort and support. Created by Draper, an expert in minimalist and functional footwear, these shoes combine performance, durability, and modern design to support runners of all levels in the UK.
Our mens barefoot running shoes and womens barefoot running shoes feature a true zero drop sole, keeping the heel and forefoot level. This encourages natural running mechanics, improves posture, and reduces stress on the ankles, knees, and hips. The wide, foot-shaped toe box allows your toes to spread naturally, enhancing balance, grip, and propulsion with every stride. Unlike conventional running shoes with thick cushioning that can weaken foot muscles over time, Barely Barefoot shoes help strengthen and engage your feet naturally.
