Description

What is the Groundies Active Knit Men suitable for?

A lightweight sports sneaker for active days, training and everything in between movement and everyday life. The knitted upper – polyester with 20% recycled content – adapts to the foot without constricting it, and is light, flexible and breathable.

Ground feel without cushioning: The sole is thin – 2.0 mm base plus 2.5 mm tread – and close to the ground. You feel the ground, your foot moves freely. With a zero drop, the body aligns more naturally than traditional sports shoes with a heel-to-toe drop allow.

Anatomical toe box: There is space at the front of the shoe so that the toes can splay. The knit is flexible and follows every movement – a vegan barefoot shoe for training, city, and travel.

Honest classification: The Active Knit is a sports and everyday sneaker, not a trail or hiking shoe. On wet surfaces – as with any flexible sole – caution is advised. Manufacturer's note: this model runs one size smaller.

In the package: 1 pair of Groundies Active Knit Men including an additional removable insole, packed in our plastic-free outer packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I wear socks with these shoes?

Yes, perfectly normal. The name "barefoot shoe" describes the feeling of movement (wide toe box, thin flexible sole, zero drop), not the bare foot.

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

Allow 12–17 mm in addition to your foot length. Manufacturer's note: this model runs one size small.

Is the insole removable in this shoe?

Yes, the shoe comes with an additional removable insole. You can insert or remove it, depending on the desired cushioning and sole height.

Is the shoe suitable for sports or training?

According to the manufacturer, the Active Knit is designed as a sports and fitness sneaker. It is not designed for intensive trail running or mountain hikes.

I'm wearing barefoot shoes for the first time – what should I look out for?

Muscle soreness in your calves and soles of your feet is normal in the first few weeks – your muscles are being challenged in a new way. Start with 30–60 minutes daily and gradually increase. If you have existing foot ailments or joint problems, speak with your doctor or orthopedist before switching.
