Merrell Barefoot shoes encourage you to walk naturally and run without jarring the body or creating injuries.

Barefoot Studio now has Merrell’s innovative barefoot collection in store. Karen Ingram, our senior Pilates Instructor has been road testing the shoes, she said: “I’ve been wearing the Merrell Lithe shoes for every day use and running and they feel great. So lightweight and I feel really in touch with how my body is moving on different terrains. I feel lighter on my feet and more dynamic”.

We are planning a Barefoot Clinic in June where you will have the opportunity to try barefoot shoes on and off road… watch this space. In the meantime pop in the shop to check them out.
