Size guide

Toe room is already included.

Measure both feet and use the longer measurement. Do not add extra length.

How to measure your feet
How to measure your feet: stand on paper with your heel against a wall, mark the tip of your longest toe, measure from the paper edge to the mark and match your foot length to the size chart. Measure both feet and use the longer foot.

In the table below, you will find the shoe size we recommend for you based on the length measurement of your foot.

So, you only need to know the length of your foot in centimeters. Here’s how to find it out:

Vaistoa Barefoot Shoe

Measurement tip:

  1. Place a piece of paper on the floor with one edge against the wall.
  2. Put your heel against the wall and mark a line on the paper at the tip of your longest toe.
  3. Measure the length from the edge of the paper to the line you drew.

Winter ankle boots you won't want to take off

A cold morning, a rush out of the door and shoes that feel heavy and stiff. Vaistoa Huurre 2 does things differently: thanks to the side zip, the boots slip on in seconds, and the soft faux fur lining feels lovely from the very first step.

Huurre 2 combines the natural movement, lightness and freedom of a barefoot shoe with a warm build. The water-repellent vegan suede protects against moisture and splashes, and the foot-shaped toe box gives your toes room to move.

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.

Materials & Specs

UPPER
Vegan suede (polyester fibre) – water-repellent and easy to care for

TREATMENT
Water-repellent surface treatment – protects against moisture

LINING
Inner surface: Soft faux fur (polyester)

INSOLE
Felt made from recycled polyester & recycled polyurethane

OUTSOLE
Synthetic rubber compound
Thin and flexible – provides a true barefoot feel
Grip pads: High-friction soft rubber compound under the forefoot and heel

CLOSURE
Side zip

Vaistoa Pitoa™ Winter Sole

Created for the Nordic winter.

The Vaistoa Pitoa™ winter sole is designed to enable a free and natural step throughout the northern winter. It combines the feel of a thin, flexible sole with grip pads.

Renewed grip pads for this winter. The grip pad structure has been developed further, with the aim of even better grip. The sole is still just as thin and flexible, so your step feels naturally comfortable in winter too.

The grip pads are made from a softer, high-friction rubber compound and are molded into the sole under the forefoot and heel.

The soft grip material wears slightly faster on dry, rough surfaces. In winter conditions, snow naturally slows down wear.

Winter Layer+ extra insulation midsole

Each pair comes with a Winter Layer+ midsole in the box. It adds extra insulation in cold conditions. Place it underneath the existing insole when needed.

Especially useful:

  • in very cold conditions
  • when standing still for longer periods
  • if your feet get cold easily

Material: recycled polyester felt with a heat-reflective aluminium layer.

Shoe care

USAGE

Open the zip fully when taking the shoes off and putting them on. This reduces wear and helps extend the lifespan of your shoes.

Let the shoes air out well after use. Open the zip fully, remove the insole (and the extra mid-insole if you use it), open the shoe wide, and allow the shoes to dry naturally before the next use.

If the shoes get wet on the inside, remove the removable insole and open the shoe wide so air can circulate.

It’s also good to give your shoes “rest days” so they can dry and ventilate properly.

CLEANING AND STORAGE

It’s best to clean off loose dirt right after use with a damp cloth or sponge.

You can maintain the water-repellent treatment with a protective spray. The treatment protects against moisture and splashes, but the shoes are not waterproof by construction.

We do not recommend washing barefoot shoes in a washing machine, as machine washing can weaken the shoe’s glued parts.

Store the shoes upright at room temperature and protected from UV light.

The soft grip-pad material wears slightly faster on dry, rough surfaces. In winter conditions, snow slows wear naturally.

Enjoy every step and every trail!

Vaistoa Pitoa™ Winter Sole

The grip pad structure of the Vaistoa Pitoa™ winter sole has been developed further for this winter, with the aim of even better grip. The sole is still just as thin and flexible, so your step feels natural in winter too.

Soft Faux Fur Lining

The soft faux fur lining makes every winter step feel cosy without a heavy feel. Every adult pair also comes with an extra mid-insole: place it under the winter insole when you want more insulation.

Physiotherapist Recommends

Most winter boots keep your feet warm but prevent them from functioning naturally. When movement is restricted, the small muscles in the feet become inactive and circulation decreases—resulting in cold feet and reduced body control.

Huurre does things differently. It allows your feet to function as they’re meant to—freely and naturally. Toes can spread, small muscles activate, and metabolism increases, helping your feet generate warmth through movement.

The new Vaistoa Pitoa™ winter sole provides greater grip and balance even on icy surfaces, while maintaining the lightness and ground feel of a true barefoot shoe.

The result is warm, stable, and living feet that support the whole body—naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend ordering your usual size. To check, measure your foot length in centimetres and choose the size that the Huurre 2 size chart recommends for it. The chart also shows the interior length and width of each size.

Size charts are model-specific, so check this chart even if you already own another Vaistoa model.

Huurre 2 has a soft faux fur lining and a felt insole. 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:

Transformations Vaistoa Barefoot Shoe Fans Rave About:

  • Relieves tightness as body realigns.
  • Revitalized feet, better circulation.
  • Say goodbye to foot fatigue.
  • Stronger, more balanced movement.
  • Natural comfort with every step.

We invite you to join over 50,000 satisfied customers and experience the benefits of barefoot shoes for yourself.
