Comfortable

Comfortable. I like that the outsole is stitched. I bought white elastic laces to go with them.

Love my new pink Tanga 3s!

The Freet Tanga 3 is, hands down, the most comfortable shoe that I have ever owned. My feet are very narrow in the heel area. However, due to bunions, hammer toes and corns, I need a large toe box in order to feel comfortable when I walk. The Tanga 3 is perfect. I especially like the extra support in the heel area, as it holds my heels in place. The pink color is perfect...feminine, dignified and not too loud.

5 stars!

I was not super fond of the Tanga 1, but surprisingly I'm totally in love with these Tanga 3!

Loving my Tanga 3 so much! The pink colour is beautiful

loving my Tanga 3 so much! The pink colour is beautiful - I think more of a baby pink rather than a salmon. The shoes are so lightweight, easy to slip on and COMFY! I tend to wear in the gym either when I'm lifting weights or just for an easy shoe to slip on and off for yoga and pilates :)

Lovely design, great colour! Easy to slip on. I had to remove the insoles to stop any pressure on the top of my foot and change to the elastic laces but it was quite tricky to feed the elastic laces through the loops as thread kept getting in the way as I was trying to push them through. Once the elastic laces were on and insoles out with thin toe socks gave my feet the height they needed to feel comfortable. Also enough width in the shoe for feet to spread a little but had to go for a eu46 to my 11.3cm feet to splay. So far so good

Erg fijne barefoot schoenen

Erg fijne barefoot schoenen. Voor mij de eerste. Ze zijn licht, comfortabel en zien er leuk uit. Mijn tenen hebben heerlijk veel ruimte!

I ordered the shoes and took them with me on holiday.
Very light, comfortable and with lots of room for your toes!

Great shoes. Great customer service

I'm fairly new to barefoot shoes and still finding my way, but I think I have now found the perfect ones that suit my feet! The soft wide box toe is the best fit so far. They also have just enough padding in the sole to make the transition to bare foot a little easier. The shape and soft pink colour also looks more feminine and more flattering then some bare foot shoes for women that I've seen (and tried).

The customer service has also been excellent. When my first order failed to be delivered by Evri, they sent out a second pair with a different courier which arrived safely and quickly. I will definitely be looking at purchasing more shoes from Freet.

At last! An actual toe spacer-friendly wide toe box 🥹

Love my new Tanga 3's! Got a mild bunion and mallet toes, and was having a hard time finding (vegan) wide toe box walking shoes at a decent price point that would work for my feet and toe spacers. Tried several other brands, but they just didn't work out. Chose my size according to the insole length on the size chart—with an 8mm difference between my foot length and insole length (which ended up being one size up from my usual)—and they fit and feel great with thin toe socks. Freet truly came through! 👟

The shoes are lightweight

The shoes are lightweight, airy and comfortable. I like that they came with elastic laces as well as fabric laces. I chose the pink because it went better with the white soles and the colour was better than expected. Black soles would be an improvement.

This is a very comfortable trainer

The only other barefoot trainer I have tried is the Primus Lite IV, by Vivobarefoot. In comparison the Tanga 3 has a thicker sole and feels more comfortable. (It was also about £30 cheaper). Being new to flat foot shoes, the Tanga 3 is less of a shock & I am enjoying the feeling of the barefoot experience.

The quality is excellent

The quality is excellent. These are my first experience of pull-on shoes making this 80-year old feel trendy ! I did not know they were pull-on when buying them. I like the close fit around the heel and the large allowance for toe splay. I hope to set a trend among people I know.

Like slippers, only better

I’ve been wearing zero drops for a few years now and have a few pairs of Vivo barefoot and a pair of Freet Flex 2 (daily use for last 1.5 years)
For the past 3 months I’ve been looking for replacements. I’ve tried multiple styles of xero, Altra and Vivo shoes, even the same style but upgraded versions and they’ve all had issues. Some have been tight across the top of the metatarsal area, others too tight across the arch of the foot. I’ve even had a pair where the little toes were trying to burst out the fabric and escape the confines of the shoes.
So, I’ve come back to Freet and decided on the Tanga 3. I’ve even dropped down half size for a better fit. They’re one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve worn in a long time. I’m only replacing the Flex 2s as I had originally bought my usual size but after a year and a half I’ve realised I had a bit more spare room in them than I needed.
I love the stack height as they provide my feet with a little more cushioning as I’m on a concrete floor all day but still enough ground feel.

Tanga 3 - living up to expectation

Very pleased with my Tanga 3s which I am trying as an alternative to Vivobarefoot. Comfortable fit (same size as Vivos) and can see why many reviewers are wearing these day in and day out. Excellent tracked and speedy delivery.

So much better than Freet 1

So much better than Freet 1. I got a size that would accommodate socks, but perhaps a tad too large for sockless wear. Time will tell. Freet 2 are currently fulfilling the latter role. More colours ( not pink) please.

These are really comfortable shoes which fit well

These are really comfortable shoes which fit well. I am wearing them with trainer socks. A point to note, the shoes have one piece uppers (like a sock) and are very snug on the foot.

Very uncomfortable, look cheap and poor value for money. Have returned them

We’re sorry to hear the Tanga 3 wasn’t right for you. Comfort can feel different depending on foot shape and fit preferences, especially with minimalist footwear.
Tanga 3 is an evolution of one of our most loved classics and now includes a double-layer heel lining designed to enhance comfort and durability. The vast majority of customers have found this update to be a real improvement, but we understand that not every style works for every individual.
We appreciate you giving them a try and thank you for your feedback.
