Tundra Barefoot Shoes, Hiking Boots
Tundra is a versatile barefoot shoe for everyday use and demanding hikes.
The surface of this all-weather hiking shoe is made of microfiber fabric, which resembles leather in its properties, but repels water better and dries much faster. Water resistance has also been taken into account for seams, so your feet stay dry in all conditions.
The outsole of the shoe is slightly different from Freet's previous models, being even more grippy on wet and slippery surfaces. For this reason, Tundra shoes are particularly suitable for challenging hiking trails. If worn purely on tarmac/concrete, this outsole may wear more quickly than the MultiGrip sole but provides more grip on the trail.
The Tundra model has a wide last and flexible construction. No elevation under the heel or toes. The shoe has a removable ConnectComfort insole (2,5 mm), so you can choose whether you want more or less shock absorption under your steps. The stack height with the insole is approx. 10,5 mm and without the insole 8 mm.

Manufacturer's care instructions: Hand wash with lukewarm water and mild detergent. Air dry – never place near heat. Freet MicroF microfibre upper material can benefit from a high quality, natural gentle water-based treatment to ‘condition’, maintain ‘suppleness’ and water resistance. Nikwax is recommended. Tundra is an ultra-light duty barefoot shoe designed for arduous conditions but not extreme professional use.
