Why are men’s dress shoes so uncomfortable? Built for looks instead of comfort, they are often made from a stiff leather upper and an inflexible sole than can be very slippery. Men force their feet into a narrow fitting shoe, causing pain and discomfort. It’s not only women who have this issue! The sides of the stiff shoe can dig into your ankles or cause friction and blisters on the heel. There must be a better shoe out there!
Leguano Barefoot Shoes has introduced the new “Gentle” dress shoe that will possibly be the most comfortable dress shoe you will ever owned. Let’s look at some reasons why these minimalist shoes could be right for you.
1. Lightweight
Men’s dress shoes can feel heavy. The Leguano Gentles are extremely lightweight weighing only a fraction of what a typical dress shoe does. They are so lightweight and comfortable, you may even forget you are wearing shoes. Perfect for a long day at the office!
2. Flexible
These barefoot shoes are very flexible; so flexible they roll up into a ball! The thin sole allows for a full range of natural foot movement and the soft 100% nubuck leather won’t dig in. The lace-up shoes fit so perfectly that you can even go sockless!
3. Wide Toe Box
Forget stuffing your feet into long narrow dress shoes. The Leguano Gentle has a wide toe box that gives you room to wiggle your toes. Not only does this add to your comfort but can also improve your balance.
4. Zero Drop
Most men’s dress shoes have a raised heel that puts the foot in an uncomfortable position. Zero-drop means that the ball of the foot and the heel are the same distance from the ground. The Leguano Gentle keeps your foot in a natural position which allows for a more efficient walking gait. It also puts the body in a more neutral alignment leading to improved posture.
5. Washable
What! A leather dress shoe that is machine washable? The Leguano Gentle Barefoot Shoe can be thrown into a laundry bag, washed on gentle in 30 degree water and left to air dry.
6. Fashionable
Obviously, style is very important when it comes to a man’s dress shoe. Leguano has you covered! The Gentle has a sporty but elegant look that is suitable for the office, a formal event, or a night on the town. The dusty blue color will look great with any outfit.
7. Non-Slip
The smooth surface of the sole of some men’s traditional dress shoes makes it feel like you are almost skating. The LIFOLIT rubber sole of a Leguano shoe is made up of a system of little bubbles that provides a non-slip grip. The thin sole gives you maximum contact with the ground.
8. Strengthen Your Feet
Feet can become weak when wearing stiff and rigid shoes. Because your feet can move freely in Leguano shoes, your muscles may redevelop to improve the strength of your feet and ankles.
9. Superb Quality
Leguano Barefoot Shoes are handmade in Germany to provide a superior barefoot shoe.
