How to choose the right size of barefoot shoes ?

Determining the correct size of Be Lenka barefoot shoes for your feet is a two-step process:

1. Measuring your feet

•  Place a piece of paper on even ground (avoid plush carpeting or pebbly surfaces)

• Place your foot flat on the paper (you must be standing, not sitting, during measuring)
• Put your weight in on your the foot as it makes it the foot longer
• Take a pencil and mark the heel and the furthest point from the heel – the longest measurement
• Use a ruler and measure the difference between these two points
• Do the same for the second foot (difference might be +/- 0.5 cm)
• The number you get is your foot size (not your shoe size, as standard shoe sizing may be misleading)

Take your foot size (the number you got when measuring both of your feet) then add 5 to 10 mm (the ideal leeway). The total is the final number you are looking for. The leeway can be up to 12 mm, but the shoe must still fit perfectly around your ankle.

In winter models, the leeway can be even larger, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks. Conversely, in summer sandals it can be smaller because of the open toe box.
