hand-sewn shoes that has decided to redefine "normal"
hand-sewn shoes that has decided to redefine "normal"
Czechia

We would like to help change the perception of "normal" footwear. We are certainly not alone in this - there are more good brands and we are also working to change people's thinking not only about the health of the feet, but of the whole body. Because in the human body everything is related to everything. We are reaching out to the world of barefoot stores who are excited about the new brand as it expands the current footwear offering. Our shoes have a timeless design that appeals to a wider range of customers. Otherwise, ballerinas and children's shoes will soon be shown to the world.

The entire shoe is made in the Czech Republic, but not only from Czech materials. Unfortunately, it is not possible to ensure long-term serial production using materials from the Czech Republic. However, all materials are actually produced (not just imported) in the EU. We collect the leather in a Czech tannery, the cows come from free pastures. Did you know that cows are not killed for their leather? Using leather is essentially waste processing. Nowadays, a lot of cow hide ends up in incinerators, so we are happy that at least some of it will be used for further processing.

Footwear company selling high-quality, comfortable, and stylish sneakers.
Footwear company selling high-quality, comfortable, and stylish sneakers.
the USA

For decades, the shoes we wear have been slowly changing the shape of our feet, and we think that's backwards. Shoes should be designed around the shape of our feet, so that's exactly what we set out to do.

**ICARUS Footwear was founded in Arizona, USA in 2021 by a shoe enthusiast who was tired of sacrificing comfort for style. We set out to create a sleek design, shaped around our custom shoe last (think plastic mannikin for shoes) to accommodate your toes. Our shoes provide all-day comfort, promote healthy foot function, give you a barefoot feel, and above all, let you express your personality. **

Our company is named after the Greek myth of Icarus. Icarus' dad built him a pair of wings from feathers and wax. His father warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun. Icarus took off immediately and flew high. Ignoring his father's warning, Icarus climbed up towards the sun. He got so close that the heat melted the wax holding his wings together, and Icarus fell from the sky. Most people criticize Icarus for being reckless; they say he should have played it safe, avoiding a dangerous situation. We decide to focus on Icarus choosing to take a bold risk, to set out to achieve something no one else had ever done. Icarus may have failed in his task, but he did so inside the arena, striving valiantly to do the deed, devoting himself to a worthy cause. Most people live their entire lives without taking any big risks, because they're afraid of failing - cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. We believe you should be more like Icarus: have courage; take a risk; dare to enter the arena.

_The cowards never started, and the weak died along the way; that leaves us, ladies and gentlemen. Us.  _-Bill Bowerman

Leguano barefoot shoes were designed in Germany by a group of movement specialists and barefoot professionals. After experiencing the negative effects of running in stiff shoes with maximal support, they began researching the benefits of running barefoot. They found that after a gradual and safe transition to running barefoot, people (including themselves) commonly experienced less injuries and pain associated with running.

Walking the path to optimal health and fitness

The** Peluva® **story begins with a pioneering vision to change the way the world walks, and a dream collaboration between Mark Sisson and his son, Kyle Sisson (pictured above.) Through their own deep research and applied knowledge, Mark and Kyle have identified the greatest design challenge facing the minimalist shoe movement and taken it head on. Over the last two and half years, they've charted a course for blue ocean by reimagining the concept of minimalist shoes, with the first-ever design to deliver all three crucial buying criteria: greater comfort, function and style.

However, the real road to Peluva began almost 40 years ago when co-founder Mark Sisson began his transformation from an elite endurance athlete to a world-renowned health and fitness investigator. Since then Mark has been researching and discovering ways in which we can all achieve optimal health and fitness, eventually culminating in a grassroots health movement that has grown to have a global impact. His blog MarksDailyApple, launched in 2006, is widely recognized as a primary source of reliable, well-researched articles on ancestral health. He has written several best-selling books based on the ancestral lifestyle and ketogenic diets. In 2014, he founded Primal Kitchen® foods in order to change the way the world eats. It became the leader in the “better for you” food revolution and continues to grow impressively under the leadership of its co-founder Morgan Zanotti at Kraft Heinz.

During his decades of looking for ways to improve the health of millions – whether through altering the dietmixing up exercise patternschanging sleep habitsgetting more (not less) sun and developing easier, more delicious ways to eat healthy – Mark has been obsessed with shoes and foot health. He was an early proponent of barefoot living and the minimalist shoe movement. Despite owning hundreds of pairs of minimalist shoes, his disappointment and frustration at the industry’s inability to produce a comfortable, good-looking minimalist shoe led him to create his own. In 2021 he joined forces with his son Kyle to start Peluva, with the sole purpose of creating attractive and comfortable shoes that address the four pillars of the best minimalist shoes: little-to-no drop from heel to toe, increased flexibility, a wide toe box, and thinner soles. The result is the shoes you see here on our site today.

Sisson has always been primarily an educator. For two decades, he has promoted walking as the single best exercise (or form of movement) that anyone can do. The more the better in most cases. These shoes encourage the user to do just that. The time has never been more appropriate for a massive change in how we walk.

Providing style, comfort, and a natural pathway back to mother nature.
Providing style, comfort, and a natural pathway back to mother nature.
the USA

Connect through your sole.

Raum Goods is on a quest to connect people back to mother earth. We set out to make an ethically-sourced shoe that was made of all-natural materials and conductive to the earth. Each shoe is made by a skilled group of artisans in Southern Turkey that have been making shoes for more than five generations. Over 10% of our artisans are Syrian refugees and that are trained by our expert Turkish cobblers. All leather used is a bi-product of the food industry and we use every bit of it. Our soles are naturally vegetable-tanned that does not use chrome in the tanning process. We significantly reduce water waste and pollution that is typical in the footwear industry by not using steel molds or harmful chemicals in our shoe making process. The vast majority of shoes have components sourced from all over the world. This significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emission during their transportation. We are so proud that ALL parts of our shoes are sourced locally to Southern Turkey within a 90 mile radius. This is virtually unheard of in modern footwear.

1% For The Planet - Official Member

We at Raum clearly value our planet. It is not only what our entire business is centered around, but also our everyday lives. We partnered with 1% For The Planet to donate 1% of yearly sales to a variety of approved nonprofits and charities that align with our values. This is a wonderful organization that we are very excited about! They offer great resources and directories for many ways to get involved in helping our planet and communities.

Thoughtful. Every step of the way.

All of our products are shipped in natural linen bags and an outer shipping carton made from 100% post consumer recycled cardboard. We always look to eliminate waste wherever possible because we care about our planet. We are so proud to be able to provide our products and packaging with zero plastic!

Minimalist comfort.

Our shoes have a zero-drop sole and is made from a porous water buffalo leather. This type of sole is extra conductive by absorbing the earth's moisture and your perspiration. Your feet mold into the leather over time creating an amazing level of comfort that brings you back to how your body was designed to feel.

Direct to consumer.

Our model is simple: bring the highest quality and most stylish earthing footwear to people at the fairest price possible. We do this by making our shoes only available to purchase directly through our website. We have a warehouse in Vista, California that is available to check out and try on shoes locally. Please email us at info@raumgoods.com to schedule an appointment!

The future is primitive.

Handcrafted Shoes, Designed to Last.
Handcrafted Shoes, Designed to Last.
the UK

I have trained in my craft using leather, being a natural material for shoes as it intuitively reflects the movement and flexibility of the foot. I make my shoes with great respect to the animal that lived before, they are designed to last - in defiance to all the masses of shoes made to rest in landfill and replaced by a new pair each time. The leather I have been using is called Full grain Italian which despite the name almost certainly from Argentinian cattle raised on the Pampa plains. Full grain means it is the strongest and most durable part of the hide of an animal from just below the hair. Additionally, since the grain is so tight, it resists moisture very well.
