Bramford: Barefoot Sneaker

Barefoot sneakers for everyday wear and a night out. Most sneakers have a narrow toe-box which is bad for your feet and toes — and most "barefoot" shoes are just ugly. Bramford combines the best of both worlds: a wide toe-box, zero-drop sole, and full-grain American leather. A comfortable sneaker for when flip-flops aren't appropriate.

US Men's sizing. Between sizes? Choose the larger size (e.g. size 9.5 then choose 10).

Dr. Tom Biernacki

"Bramfords are my new favorite sneaker! It has a lot of room in the toes, it's not pointy. It's stiff in the mid-sole and heel for support. It's easy to get on, and it has a zero heel-drop."

Wide toe box - natural toe splay
Zero drop heel - balanced alignment
No-tie elastic laces - slip on & off
Made with the softest full-grain American leather upper. Features a zero-drop sole with a faux heel on the outside for style, while the inside stays completely flat. A flexible outsole gives your feet a full range of motion, and a luxury insole adds a layer of cushioned comfort.
If you are between sizes, choose the larger size (e.g. US 9.5 then choose US 10). The wide toe box accommodates most foot widths without looking clownish. Bramford's leather is flexible and elastic — choose your size confidently.

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and extreme heat.

What The Experts Say

Trusted by Barefoot Enthusiasts

"It's so soft and tumbled that there's probably less break-in period than a one millimetre firm leather shoe — that's awesome. That alone to me makes the shoe worth it."

"This looks sleek! Good little toe box — not too wide. Doesn't look like Howard the Duck. These are elastic shoe laces so it slides on. The leather feels extremely nice on this."

"My Bramfords are the most comfortable shoes I own. The wide toe-box lets my toes relax without being squeezed. The elastic laces make a casual slip-on look that's good enough to wear with khakis and a blazer. A tremendous value — I'll be buying more pairs."
