Durham

I measure 24x10 cm i wear the size 6 with a wool insole and thick socks . Extra wide fit and volume space too . They are water resistant as accidently tested in a puddle that went half way up. Comfy , grippy non slip and look smart for smart casual wear too. Amazing boots still look as new a year later . Please make in another colour! Black or purple would be amazing

Dear Sir’s shoemakers,

Exelent boot for gardenwork!
However, within a coupleof days the stitches on the side of the sole came out( see photo).
How can we fix this?

Photos of Durham boots after a month of wear working extended hours on sound stages and outdoors in various terrains around LA County with temperatures ranging from 39-115 degrees Fahrenheit.
Now after three months of regular wear the boots have broken in nicely and are holding up well.
My long-toed mountain shape feet measure 24/10 cm without socks. I like the included insole for warm temps and swap for wool inserts on cooler days. Socks I wear: lightweight quick dry, Bombas mid weight wool, Darn Tough T4050 heavyweight tactical, heavyweight baby alpaca blend. I kept size 39 as it felt roomy initially and worked with light to mid weight socks. It feels a tad snug in the heel with heavyweight socks and wool insert but I find if I bend through my foot more while walking I don’t get pulling at the heel. I will eventually buy size 40 for next winter’s rotation and keep 39 for warmer months.
With any new boot, I wear a higher sock until the leather breaks in to avoid excessive skin rubbing around the ankles. Don’t blame the boot for user error. These boots feel good, look nice, and are well designed. Would love to see them in black nubuck as well.

I prefer leather over rubber because leather is breathable and will conform to foot over time, whereas rubber never breaks in. Quickly slips on and off and sole is smooth to minimize trapped manure typical of more aggressive soles. One minor concern is the inner stitching at back base of heel just above insole feels “scratchy” without socks. Otherwise, this is exactly what I wanted in an ideal barn boot.

Fast delivery. I was so suprised how stylish and chic these shoes are. They're darker in real life than the picture (more of a raw umber/brown than tan) which I love more actually.

They fit true to size. I love the look and feel of them. This is my second real pair of barefoot shoes a
& so glad I made the investment.

I tried on these boots at the UK barefoot expo and found that they were best for my wide feet compared to the other brands there.I'm currently wearing them to work everyday (art technician) and outdoors playing with my son. They are very comfortable for being on my feet all day and seem to be working great against the water, paint and chemicals I use in my job. I used a waterproof protector spray on them.

The only negative I can think of is after the first few days wearing them, the top felt stiff and hurt against my ankle when I would walk, despite them not being tight. They are fine now though. I bought a 6.5 which seems to be my size in most barefoot shoes.

Great to buy from a small UK business.

Easy to slip on and really comfortable to wear.

There is room for my toes to spread out without the whole shoe appearing too big.

It's also very stylish and didn't look at all out of place in some very exclusive places!

Excellent quality, great workmanship and a dream to wear.

Hele fijne schoenen. Het enige minpunt is dat ze lastig aan te trekken zijn.
Goed waterdich en sopel.

These are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn.

I suffer from swollen ankles and as a result found the boot difficult to start with because the opening was narrow. I have kept going and they seem to have worn in ok. I could probably have done with a half size bigger. Prefer the material softness of my last pair of freet shoes. Will stick to that next time rather than the leather.

Great fit, sized one size up nice and roomy could wear a thicker sock come winter! Plenty of room to splay my toes nice roomy toe box, ground feel I good but not so thin you grimas at every stone or pebble.
Great improvement over older models

Excellent shoes; they are incredibly comfortable and feel super light. Even after wearing them for more than eight hours a day, my feet still feel relaxed and weightless. I will definitely buy some more.

Very pleased with the boots. Quality seems excellent. I'm finding the fit comfortable. I usually considered my foot size to be EU 45 / UK 11 but Freet sizings twin uk11 with EU46 so I ordered a 45/10 - which turned out too small - I needed the 46/11. But your feet are probably different to mine. If you're still reading this you're probably not a very busy person. I can confirm the returns system worked just fine and the whole shopping experience was most satisfactory.

A great practical winter boot. A decent sole for cold muddy ground. Just a couple of personal niggles in trying to get the boot on with a think sock is tricky. There is a ridge around the inside of the toe box on the sole which I’m hoping will wear down with use. I’d like the ankle height to be taller to offer more protection.

I love these boots! The are stylish and comfortable when I wear long socks as the leather is new only a few days of wearing them. Wish they came in red :)

I love these boots so much! They are so comfy to wear to walk the dogs or for when I want to be a little smarter

I LOVE these boots!
I did get a very big blister walking them in, because they were so stiff in the heel area from the beginning. But they soften up nicely and pretty fast. I look forward to how they will soften even more with care and use.
High volume. But adding an extra insole doesn't effect the ground feel.

Lovely, well made boots. Bought as a gift for my husband and he finds them very comfortable.

So comfy! Just what I’ve been looking for - thank you

Cómodos, calentitos, estupendos. Encantada co mi compra.

I haven't yet tested the shoes much so keep that in mind. The shoes are very sturdy much More sturdy than previous freet shoes I had. Putting them on an off is incredibly smooth, and they fit my regular feet size perfectly.

Best boots I’ve had for instant comfort, they look great and are robust

Really happy… rubbing my right heel but hoping that will ease in time. Loving my Zennor sandals.

Lovely fit and feel straight out the box! This won’t be my last pair.

Great fit and comfortable, look great. I do find my feet are bit cold wearing them this time of year. An autumn/winter version would be great

very comfortable and beautiful

Fit true to size That Good , I m going to buy another pair
