When we stand barefoot, our toes and our heels are at the same height. Why would we put on a shoe that opposes what our foot was meant to do naturally? Wearing high heels, hard soled boots or thick cushiony running shoes can cause all sorts of injuries not just to our feet but to our ankles, knees and lower back. They put our feet in unnatural positions and cause us to walk with poor posture or run with jarring force.

A zero-drop shoe keeps our foot in the same position as they would be if we were barefoot, with a zero difference between the ball of the foot and the heel. Also known as barefoot or minimalist shoes, they are meant to give protection from the terrain and from different ground conditions while being extremely lightweight and durable. There are many potential benefits to wearing these shoes. They have been known to help strengthen our feet and to help reduce injuries, and they may also increase stability and balance and improve posture. Originally designed for runners, zero-drop shoes are being worn for every activity. Have the feeling of being barefoot when hiking, boating, fitness training, shopping and dancing.
