Description

What is the Groundies Grit suitable for?

For anyone who wants to feel the ground even on longer hikes: The Grit is a high barefoot hiking boot for short and multi-day hikes on forest paths, gravel, and marked mountain trails in the low mountains.

Grippy yet close to the ground: The tread gives you grip on changing surfaces, while the sole remains flexible. With a 2 mm base plus 3 mm tread and zero drop, you can feel unevenness and adapt each step directly.

Dry feet on wet paths: The waterproof construction made of nubuck leather and mesh keeps moisture out. Inside, breathable mesh ensures a balanced shoe climate, even on longer hikes.

Protection above the ankle: The high shaft protects the ankle but is designed to be flexible. This allows your foot to move freely, and your steps remain controlled even on challenging sections.

The toe box follows the natural shape of the foot and gives your toes room to splay. According to the manufacturer, the fit is ideal for narrow to medium-width feet. For wide feet, a wider-cut model is the better choice.

In the package: 1 pair of Groundies Grit, packaged in our plastic-free secondary packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I wear socks with these shoes?

Yes, absolutely. The term ‘barefoot shoe’ describes the feel of movement (wide toe box, thin flexible sole, zero drop), not the bare foot.

How much space should there be at the front of the shoe?

Allow at least 12 mm in addition to your foot length.

This is my first time wearing barefoot shoes – what should I look out for?

Muscle soreness in your calves and soles is normal for the first few weeks – your muscles will be challenged in new ways. Start with 30–60 minutes a day and gradually increase. If you have existing foot discomfort or joint problems, speak to your doctor or orthopedist before switching.

Is the Grit waterproof?

Yes, according to the manufacturer, the waterproof nubuck leather and mesh construction reliably protects against moisture. Breathable mesh inside ensures that the shoe’s interior climate remains balanced even on longer walks.
