  • No insole, bringing you even closer to the ground for the full barefoot experience.

  • Maximum underfoot sensory feedback.

  • Zero drop.

  • Very flexible thin soles for movement and a “just like barefoot” experience.

Sizing

Shapen labels their shoes in European sizing. The Fleur fits true to size, or even a little generously: if you are in between sizes try your smaller size.

Leather stretches and moulds to the shape of your feet as you wear it in. 

The width in this unisex sizing is appropriate for men with average to narrow feet (and average to low volume), and for women with average to wide feet and roughly average volume feet.

The footprint shape is triangular, with a wide toebox that tapers towards a sleek fitting heel. The arch area is lightly sculpted out but the soft material should accommodate lower arches if needed. The toebox shape is very wide and square, even for the outer toes.

Ground feel

The Fleur’s stack height is very low (just over 6mm) and the materials used are soft and flexible. You will have lots of groundfeel wearing them, meaning you will receive sensory information about the surface you stand on and how you move based on contact with the ground.

More groundfeel can be desirable for skillfully navigating your environment, but it may be overwhelming if you are new to minimal shoes. These shoes do not feel supportive or cushioned; you will feel as if you are barefoot while wearing them.

Care

Leather is a durable and easy to care for material! You can find our recommendations on leather care here: https://cooleastmarket.com/blogs/learn/caring-for-minimal-footwear

Patent leather (the shiny area) can simply be wiped with a damp cloth to clean.
