Imagine that you’re a little girl again, just for one day. What would you do? Would you run into a pile of autumn leaves? Would you start to discover the world with new eyes? You can experience this – all you need to do is put on the right shoes.
With Sundara Ankle barefoot shoes, you’ll be in contact with the ground. Suddenly you’ll see the world in a way that wouldn’t be possible with normal shoes – you’ll be feeling it with your feet. They’ll free your feet and protect them from spring and autumn showers. Your feet will stay warm and dry while the shoes wick away moisture.
Barefoot Line: Free your feet
Have you ever noticed how your shoes have a completely different shape than your feet? Ordinary shoes restrict and cramp your feet, so you can’t wait to take them off at the end of the day. Try wearing barefoot shoes, which give your toes the natural space and flexibility they need. In Ahinsa shoes, every step you take becomes a gentle massage for your feet — and your brain. Did you know that walking barefoot stimulates brain centers? And that’s not all. Wearing barefoot shoes also activates your entire kinetic chain, engages your core stabilization system, and supports the function of your internal organs. Wear shoes that respect the natural shape and elasticity of your feet. Never worn barefoot shoes before? Give our Comfort Line a try first. These shoes come with foam insoles to soften each step. Once you’re ready to transition to barefoot, simply remove them.
Ethical CF+ material: Keep your feet dry
Head into the forest. Or climb a hill. In these shoes, the weather won’t catch you off guard. Our shoes are made from the highest quality European material CF+ (Cruelty Free High Performance material). It has increased water resistance on the outside, while on the inside it absorbs and reduces moisture. Even better? CF+ is extremely durable. You can scratch them with a fork (we’ve tried) and you won’t see a thing. Finally, shoes that won’t get scuffed up the moment you wear them outside! Wicks away sweat from your feet, increased water resistance, scratch-resistant, and 100% vegan.
CF UltraDry lining: Dry feet even in the hot summer
We've been looking for a lining that would look after your feet for a long time. A lining that breathes and wicks moisture away from your feet. And we found it. It's called Cruelty Free UltraDry. It looks like leather, but it's so much better. 60% of this lining comes from corn polymer, a natural and easily recyclable material. We also love this lining for what it can do. It absorbs up to 8 times its weight in water, so your feet stay dry. Wicks away moisture from your feet, antibacterial, silky smooth to the touch, ecological and easily recyclable material.
Lifo+: Extra flexible sole that lasts for years
You'll conquer any terrain with the German Lifo+ outsole. It's lightweight and as flexible as your feet. And it doesn't slip even on wet surfaces (we tried it), just be more careful on the ice-covered road. Wondering if they'll last? We've worked that out, too. We chose an extra-durable German compound that won't scuff easily. Thin and lightweight sole, reliable even on wet surfaces, maximum flexibility, resists wear and tear.
As healthy as walking barefoot, study confirms
Your stride is healthy and natural in Ahinsa shoes, studies carried out at Masaryk University confirm. According to the research, Ahinsa shoes allow your foot to engage just like when you walk barefoot. By contrast, ordinary shoes restrict your feet and block their natural sensory contact with the ground. Do something for your health, today.
