Black Barefoot Desert Boots | Barefoot Pals

I really like these boots. They are of very good quality. Leather feels also to be of a good quality; not superb but pretty good (I think for superb quality one has to go for bespoke pair and choose the leather himself).
They fit well. I went for extra wide and after taking insoles out they fit very well. So the extra wide option with no insoles fits pretty wide feet. After putting them on for the first time I walked for several kilometers and didn't feel any discomfort. Of course they need some time for leather to break in to be even more comfortable.
The sole is not very thin, which is a matter of preference (weather You like barefoot feel of feeling the ground or rather sturdiness for tough terrain and longevity). As a matter of fact, these could perfectly be used as barefoot hiking boot. They are waterproof, gusseted tongue etc. Leather is sturdy but not too stiff.
I had some issue with one of shoes with my first pair, but staff was very helpful and kind and resolved my problem very fast. Thumbs up for the team.
Soles can be replaced so with proper care I think these can go a long way.
For those looking for high quality, good looking, sturdy and (hopefully) long lasting barefoot boots, high price can be justified.
Maybe the only issue is, if You are ordering from EU, be ready to pay the customs.
Anyways, I would recommend this shoes and would buy again.

I had the window open, refreshing for quite a while, hoping this color would come back in stock, in my size. I'd purchased a black pair, and they are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had on my feet. I've always dug a classic pair of desert boots/ chukkas/ shorter ankle boots, but they are hard to find in a natural toe box. As far as I can tell, these are about the only option out there, and they are worth it. The quality is stellar, the leather is soft, the stitches are smooth and uniform, and the rubber is thin enough to feel what's under your feet, but thick enough to ease the pain of sourgum balls on the sidewalk.

Super comfortable deck shoes! My husband alternates between his blue and tan pals. The perfect summer shoe!

Absolutely gorgeous boots. Super comfortable, too! My husband loves them!

I put them on and instantly fell in love. I have been wearing barefoot shoes only for 8+ years now and have had shoes from many brands. What I missed were good looking, high quality shoes. It seemed to me you can have either or. Now my quest is over, the shoes are comfortable, top notch quality and look great! Thanks!

These are fantastic boots. They fit snug. The leather is excellent. The price is a good value and the customer service is the best. Would recommend

Wonderful shoes and super service. Since I received them I do not want to use other shoes. In addition to the fact that they are very comfortable, they are also super stylish!

Amazing quality, perfect for the summer

Extremely happy with these shoes, I’ve two pairs of ninja leather boots and have been contemplating getting some less formal shoes, that are more casual. I normally wear vivo trainers and it’s really been bothering me about their impact on planet Earth. I’m so happy with these they are about the same price as vivos but the quality is absolutely outstanding, whereas I find the vivos are very plasticky and of poor quality. I’ve been wearing barefoot shoes for 3 1/2 years and these were what I would describe as snug as they do not have an extra wide toebox , they are very warm and the materials are really great quality. I would say that these are the most responsive barefoot shoes I’ve ever worn. You can really feel everything when walking. I feel very privileged to have got one of the 25 pairs, if you are contemplating going for this, I wouldn’t hesitate. I would probably rate this as the best shoe I have ever bought. Highly recommended.

These are lovely, really great fit and look good with either smart or casual attire.

I would think that these are perfect for the summer, also the material seems very breathable and I’m a big fan of the real rubber soles.

Double tie the leather laces as they can come undone.

Don’t hesitate go for it.

Hands down the most comfortable dress shoes out there. I have wide feet, so using their size guide I could have gone with three different sizes. The customer service was amazing and gave me some really good advice on which to order. Now I'm just keeping an eye out for the right side to pop up in the desert brown!

I love these boots! I've put about 100 miles on them thus far at work and they're great. A quick breakin also.

I have never had a work boot or just shoe fit me better. I work as a lighting tech in Film and TV, 12-16 days on my feet and these baby's have fealt amazing right out of the box.

This shoe is very comfortable, I particularly liked the stiffish toe box which gives the shoe the look of a regular hard leather shoe but maintains the moccasin like feeling of the upper part of the shoe. The leather tongue on the right shoe slips out but I think that adding a double slit on the tongue to pass the shoe laces through will fix that. All in all this is a barefoot shoe that looks almost dressy but lets you enjoy the feeling of freedom from you foot being compressed in tight fitting shoe

I received my new Desert Blaster custom barefoot horse hide boots and could not be more pleased with them! They are my absolute favorite pair of shoes I’ve ever acquired, and are a great value given the incredible quality & craftsmanship. The boots fit me perfectly & feel great right away. I really like the stiffness on them, they have great ankle support, yet are also very supple & comfortable. I feel like they’ll wear in beautifully. The chestnut color is lovely too. My wife’s first words when she saw them on me were “Wow, those are some dapper boots”. My deepest appreciation goes to Lisandro for his unmatched skill. I’ve been hunting for shoes like this for 20 years, and finally have my first pair of legacy boots that I’ll have for the rest of my life. They may seem pricey to some, but I can guarantee that they are worth every penny. Lisandro is the only bespoke barefoot shoe maker on the market, and he does an exceptional job paying attention to every detail. Gaucho Ninjas shoe conditioning formula is also the best I’ve found, smells delicious, and works very well at protecting the leather. I could go on an on about how pleased I am. Thank you Lisandro. My gratitude extends beyond words.
