Casual barefoot winter boots for the Nordic winter
Relaxed, stylish boots that surprise you the moment you put them on. Vaistoa Hurmos 3 is light and flexible, your toes have room in the foot-shaped toe box, and the soft faux fur lining feels wonderful. The water-repellent surface protects against moisture and splashes.
Hurmos 3 goes with you all winter: on the commute, around town and on weekend walks. Come evening, you won't want to take them off.
New this winter. The grip pads of the Vaistoa Pitoa™ winter sole have been developed further, with the aim of even better grip, and the sole is still just as thin and flexible. Every pair also comes with an extra mid-insole: place it under the winter insole when you want more warmth, for example when you spend a lot of time standing still outdoors.

Water-repellent
The water-repellent surface protects against moisture and splashes, in the city and on winter walks.
Matti Melanen
Physiotherapist Recommends
Many winter boots make your feet passive – they support and protect, but at the same time prevent the foot from moving naturally. This weakens muscle function, body control and balance, especially on slippery surfaces.
Vaistoa Hurmos 3 barefoot winter boots restore this natural function. The zero-drop, flexible sole and foot-shaped toe box allow your toes and foot muscles to activate, strengthening your step and improving body control.
The water-repellent surface protects against moisture and splashes, while the thin, flexible winter sole keeps your foot free and connected to the ground.

Veldig fine og lette sko. De er super behagelige å ha på og gå i. Og de er pene. Jeg er veldig fornøyd og vil gjerne kjøpe flere Vaistoa sko.
I love them! Starting my third winter in these, now in the updated version. Really lovely on the feet. I ordered both colours. A nice extra: thermal insoles in the shoes.
Looking very cool. A little difficult to put them on because the soft material (my body isn’t flexible like I used to be). But as soon they’re on, they’re perfect.
I come from Very thin, summer barefoot shoes of 6 mm, that barely feel like having something , and the surrounding is very thin net and hyper flexible. But for the winter, they are not possible to wear. Humidity, water and cold makes it impossible. It is perfect for summer but not winter. And that's when i was looking around for shoes for the winter, water repellent, warm but still as much possible flexible, "thin", real 0 drop and as less mm possible from the ground. And i came across the Vaistoa Hurmos. I saw it, i tried it and it was perfect straight away. Warm, very flexible, 0 drop, and just few mm from the ground and most of all water repellent. Perfect combo, very good for walking,very comfortable and warm, felt straight away as if i was wearing them since always. Very good shoes ! I reccomand it to anyone without any hesitation ! Thank you for everything, we'll see us again in the next order !
The size 43 is actually a bit oversized compared to to the standard European standard. Think that I should go for an 42 size.
Please consider to use another forwarder than UPS, the package was hold in their wearehouse for mor than a week😞
Here in Lofoten, are more slush, instead of snow, normal snow almost doesn’t exesist here, more water . Only try them a few hours. So far, good. What waterproof media, waterproofing do you use/ recommend? Very wet here.
Heerlijke schoenen die zitten als pantoffels, je wilt ze niet meer uitdoen!
Kleine kritische noot: ze zouden in 2 breedte maten moeten zijn want ik heb hele smalle voeten dus daar zou een heel stuk af kunnen
Goede schoenen! Zitten erg fijn en lopen ook heel fijn, net pantoffels. Doordat ze aan de voorkant zo breed zijn heb ik geen last van mijn voeten en kan ik de schoenen lang verdragen. Ze zien er ook leuk uit.
Tog en storlek större som det stod, men dom blev stora. Har lagt en extra sula och sen får det bli en gagstrumpa i sen till vintern. Dom är sköna,men skon kunde vara lite smalare. Har inte så breda fötter.
Jättebra sko nu när halkan kommit! Lite större i storlek än mina tidigare höstskor från Vaistoa, men då ryms ju extra sockar när det blir kallare! Snygga är de också!!
We recommend ordering your usual size. To check, measure your foot length in centimetres and choose the size that the Hurmos 3 Winter size chart recommends for it.
The chart also shows the interior length and width of each size, so you can compare them if you plan to wear thicker winter socks or use the extra mid-insole.
Size charts are model-specific, so check this chart even if you already own another Vaistoa model.
Hurmos 3 has a soft faux fur lining, and its insole has a cold-insulating foil layer. Every adult pair also comes with a separate extra mid-insole. Place it under the winter insole when you want more insulation and warmth, for example when your time outdoors involves a lot of standing still.
According to physiotherapist Matti Melanen, when the foot is allowed to function naturally, metabolism increases and the feet warm themselves through movement.
You can test the shoes indoors for 90 days. Returns are free, so you can order risk-free and with peace of mind. If you're not completely satisfied, simply return them within 90 days for a full refund. No questions asked.

Barefoot shoes have been around for years and are based on principles of natural movement and foot health. They are not just a trend; they are a step towards healthier footwear choices.
Our barefoot shoes are made from high-quality materials and designed for use in various environments. They are durable, but it’s important to remember that all shoes are consumable items. Barefoot shoes naturally have thinner soles compared to traditional thick-soled shoes. The durability of the soles can vary depending on the level of activity, the environment, and your walking style.
While athletes and outdoor enthusiasts use barefoot shoes for their features, they are suitable for anyone looking for comfort and the benefits of natural movement.
If you can walk barefoot or in socks, you can also wear barefoot shoes. Start gradually and listen to how your body feels as your feet get used to moving freely.
Barefoot shoes do not provide any support because their purpose is to allow the foot muscles to work while moving. Supported shoes weaken the foot muscles because they don’t get to do their job.
Our customers have reported numerous benefits from using our barefoot shoes, such as:
