No compromises between style and functionality

Shoes are a socio-economic phenomenon, which is why we took on the challenge of developing a new minimalist shoe that not only feels great but also looks fantastic. The result? Globetrotter shoes make no compromises between comfort and style, so you can say goodbye to the days when you thought barefoot or minimalist shoes were unfashionable. Thanks to their universal design, Globetrotter shoes not only make you feel comfortable but also look fantastic with every step.

All-Day Comfort

The widespread concern that barefoot shoes aren’t suitable for all-day use in the city doesn’t apply to Skinners. Thanks to the removable Comfort+ insole, you can customize the comfort—with the insole, comfort is enhanced; without it, the walking experience feels more natural. Whether you’re spending the day at the office, running errands, or heading straight from work for a walk, your feet will always feel like they’re walking on clouds.

Made exclusively from natural and sustainable materials

Shoes made from trees? No problem—high-quality natural materials and a long-lasting shoe are a must. That’s why we’ve crafted the entire Globetrotter model from materials that are sustainably sourced. Our patented, breathable TreeKnit™ upper made from conifer fibers fits like a glove. The soft, mattress-like lining is made from eucalyptus, and the highly abrasion-resistant Sensium™ sole is made from rubber trees.

It doesn’t look like you’re barefoot, but you are

The wide toe box provides ample space for the toes to move in accordance with the foot’s anatomical shape. The zero drop (no elevation difference between heel and toe) allows for more natural foot movement and strengthens the foot muscles, leading to improved balance and posture. Flexible and lightweight materials support natural movement similar to walking barefoot, allowing you to walk more freely and naturally.
