“Beautiful, slimline classic boot with a solid heel, as with all Bared shoes, the footbed has felt very comfortable. However, the zipper at the back of the boot had dug into the back of my calf, causing a deep blister when I wear it. It may have helped if the design of the zipper had a leather flap at the back to prevent it from rubbing against the skin. I was given a gel stick-on patch to place on the zipper area which somewhat helped.”
Hi there,
We’re so glad that you find them beautiful and comfortable!
Sorry to hear that the zipper caused discomfort. That’s certainly not the experience we want you to have. Just to clarify, the boots are designed with a leather strip to cover the zipper and help prevent rubbing. However, we understand that everyone’s feet and fit can be a little different, and sometimes that feature might not sit quite right for certain wearers.
We appreciate you giving the gel patch a try and hope it provided some relief — if the issue persists, our team is always happy to explore other solutions with you! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if we can assist further, at info@baredfootwear.com or call us at 03 9509 5771.
Warm regards,
The Bared Team x
