ABOUT US
Discover a world where each step is more natural and connected. Our barefoot shoes are designed for those who seek harmony with nature and a healthier lifestyle.
Embracing Nature’s Path for Healthy Living
In a world where footwear often distances us from the earth, Footrue brings us back to our roots.
Inspired by the enduring spirit of the Tarahumara tribe and the insights from Christopher McDougall's "Born to Run", Footrue celebrates the natural, inherent human ability for endurance running and walking.
Our shoes are crafted to honor the simplicity and effectiveness of the traditional sandals worn by the Tarahumara, known for their incredible long-distance running abilities.
At Footrue, we believe that embracing a more natural walking experience is key to overall well-being. Our barefoot shoes are designed not just for comfort, but to strengthen the feet and align the body, as nature intended.
They are a testament to our philosophy: that the best way to move forward is to take a step back to nature.
