Barefoot Line: Free your feet
Have you ever noticed how your shoes have a completely different shape than your feet? Ordinary shoes restrict and cramp your feet, so you can’t wait to take them off at the end of the day.
Try wearing barefoot shoes, which give your toes the natural space and flexibility they need. In Ahinsa shoes, every step you take becomes a gentle massage for your feet — and your brain. Did you know that walking barefoot stimulates brain centers?
And that’s not all. Wearing barefoot shoes also:
- Activates your entire kinetic chain
- Engages your core stabilization system
- Supports the function of your internal organs
Wear shoes that respect the natural shape and elasticity of your feet.
Never worn barefoot shoes before? Give our Comfort Line a try first. These shoes come with foam insoles to soften each step. Once you’re ready to transition to barefoot, simply remove them.

A patented German sole. Keeping you firmly grounded
There’s no terrain that your foot can’t handle. It only needs the right protection – a sole that copies the movement of your foot.
The patented German Hexa 4 Grip sole will hold you firmly to the ground. On the sidewalk, a wet road or forest trail. It’ll keep you rooted to the ground everywhere you go. It’s even used as a safety sole on wet and greasy surfaces.
It’s excellent at withstanding wear, and therefore your beloved running shoes will endure (just about) anything.
- Ecologically produced in Germany
- Excellent contact and sharp tread
- They hold firmly to dry, wet and even greasy surfaces
- They withstand wear – and will last you for years
- Ideal for the city and park
As healthy as walking barefoot, study confirms
Your stride is healthy and natural in Ahinsa shoes, studies carried out at Masaryk University confirm.
According to the research, Ahinsa shoes allow your foot to engage just like when you walk barefoot. By contrast, ordinary shoes restrict your feet and block their natural sensory contact with the ground.
