SPECIFICATIONS
  1. Grippy Rubber Outsole
    Keep your footing with our 2.5mm thick grippy rubber outsole. Lightweight grip for any gym-based exercise, including weightlifting, cardio, functional movements, walking and running.

  2. No Midsole = More Natural Feel
    Feel the ground beneath you. A close to the ground design gives you a more natural/barefoot feel. Most gym shoes have a thick wedge of midsole foam to cushion impacts. The BARE-XF™ PRO does away with this to enhance spatial awareness and control of your feet.

  3. Protective Features
    The BARE-XF™ PRO benefits from a number of protective features, while still retaining that natural feel. A toe bumper guards against painful stubs during exercises such as burpees. A KPU cupped heel gives you better stability when lifting. And a KPU Adapterweb overlay gives the shoe more structural support and protection too.

  4. Sock-Like Fit
    Constructed using the sachetto method - a premium technique usually reserved for leather lined shoes - the BARE-XF™ PRO benefits from a seamless interior, as the seam is turned outwards. There is no insole in the shoe, courtesy of the BARE-XF™ PRO's comfortable inner sock, which is stitched directly to the upper. Coupled with a stretch knit tongue and collar, the shoe is extremely comfortable and flexible - exactly the fit you want with a minimalist training shoe.

  5. ROPE-TEC
    Protection and durability during rope climbs. ROPE-TEC technology embedded into the midsection of the outsole and around the arch of the foot gives protection from friction on rope climbs, and delivers increased durability.

Technology

Built for ground feel

The BARE-XF PRO removes everything between you and the floor. What's left is intentional.

Zero Drop

0mm heel-to-toe drop. Heel: 8.5mm / Forefoot: 8.5mm midsole stack. The foot sits completely flat — heel and forefoot at the same level — the way it was built to load. Every muscle from the arch to the hip activates correctly.

// 0mm drop · flat platform

Splay

NaturalFit™ Wide gives the toes room to spread, splay and grip independently. Stronger intrinsic foot muscles, better balance under the bar, more stable base for every lift — the way barefoot training is supposed to work.

// NaturalFit™ Wide · toe splay

Feel

No midsole foam means no signal dampening between you and the floor. Real proprioceptive feedback that builds better movement patterns and stronger feet over time. At 210g, there's nothing in the way.
