The Spanish Olive Clays are a beautiful pair of barefoot shoes handmade with natural materials. They are made from a deep green smooth full-grain leather that has a light shine and a soft, yet sturdy feel. The shoes feature a wide toe-box and a zero-drop design, ensuring a perfect, natural fit and a healthy gait.
The grounding slip-ons are designed with eco-friendly materials. They are made to slip on and off easily, providing convenience and comfort.
One of the unique features of these shoes is the grounding copper. The copper rivet used in the shoes is highly conductive, durable, and antimicrobial. It acts as a conductor of electron flow from the earth to your body through the soles of your feet. The leather sole of the shoes allows for increased conductivity, and over time, the moisture from the outdoors and perspiration from your feet will enhance the sole's conductivity.
The shoes also have a "zero-drop" non-elevated heel, promoting proper posture and a safer, more natural gait. They do not have arch support, allowing the foot to strengthen over time. The naturally molding sole adds comfort without compromising foot stability, allowing you to feel the ground beneath your feet.
The design of the shoes is foot-friendly and foot-shaped, with a wide toe box that allows your toes to spread, grip better, and relax when needed.
In terms of materials, the shoes are made with all-natural components. The leather is sustainably sourced and eco-friendly, dyed using chrome-free, water-based, and nontoxic vegetable dyes. Natural clay adhesive is used instead of synthetic glues, and beeswax-soaked cotton thread ties everything together. This commitment to natural materials makes the shoes respectful to the environment and to the health of the wearer.
