RAYVE Rio Barefoot Trainers Navy Blue

REVIEW

"The RAYVE Rio shoes absolutely won me over with their colour and comfortable feel underfoot. Thanks to the roomy toe box and memory foam insole, they felt great from the very first wear - nothing pinched or restricted my movement. I put them to the test on a full-day family outing to craft markets, and even after hours of walking, my feet didn't hurt and felt comfortable throughout. These are some of my most comfortable barefoot shoes for the city. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone starting out with barefoot footwear - you'll fall in love with them."

RAYVE Rio are barefoot trainers that let you walk the way nature intended - light, free and unrestricted. At first glance, they catch your eye with their clean urban style. At second glance, you'll love them for the comfort you'll feel from the moment you slip them on.

The wide toe box gives your toes plenty of room to work naturally, while the heel and ankle stay stable. The thin, flexible sole keeps you connected to the ground, and the combination of suede, nubuck and smooth leather gives the shoes not just style, but durability for everyday city wear.
