Aesthetics

We all know that the winter months can get harsh and force you to go looking for anything and everything that is warm and will keep you snug. However, some manufacturers confuse keeping your feet warm with adding more material and thereby defeating the purpose of having a barefoot shoe. Be Lenka winter barefoot shoes come in two different looks. The long and the short.

The short rides up the leg just above the ankle, enough to be able to tuck in your winter pants. They are made of lace, and the soft leather material also gives a soft look.

The sole is thin, remaining true to the barefoot mandate. The long barefoot winter boots go up to the knees and have a zipper down the inner leg. Both shoes have a wide toe box.

Sizes
