To determine if your feet are narrow or wide, it’s important to understand that foot widths vary and are often measured in relation to foot length. People with the same foot length can have very different foot widths, so taking your foot width into account is crucial when choosing the right barefoot shoes for you.
We know that it can be difficult to determine your exact width by looking at your own feet or those of family members. One of the easiest ways to do this is to use our foot width quiz can which can help you get the most accurate idea of your foot width (your foot width is compared to 50 million scans).
As different barefoot shoes are designed to accommodate different foot widths, it’s important to choose shoes that fit both the length and width of your foot. On our shoe lists you’ll find descriptions of which foot widths each shoe is best suited for. Most brands cater for medium width feet and many also fit narrow feet well. For the best brands for extra wide feet, see this article.
