EXPERT TESTED

"A whole weekend of wind and rain gave me plenty of time to swap my wardrobe from summer to warmer clothes, shoes included. I wanted to put away my first barefoot shoes, the leguano scio, for next year, but somehow I can't say goodbye to them! Why? Imagine a shoe that fits your foot like a glove. Every time you put it on barefoot, it feels as if you aren't wearing anything at all. It is perfectly light, your foot is wrapped in a soft, airy material, and the sole is so flexible that it doesn't spoil your contact with the ground. It complements every outfit because it is stylish and understated. It is also always beautifully white, can be washed comfortably in the washing machine, and is ready for a quick dash out with your little one. No, this isn't just a nice idea, this is really the leguano scio. I simply had a lucky hand choosing my first barefoot shoes. They fit me well and my lower back pain has gone. Since giving birth to Vali, I hadn't been able to turn over in bed from one side to the other. I have no idea whether it's down to spending the whole summer in barefoot shoes, but that's how it is. If you are considering barefoot shoes, I can only recommend the scio."
