Barefoot - but better!
"Ordered a pair of these for the current (May 2026) heatwave in the UK - it was a slight gamble on my part as I’ve never before had such minimal sandals and wasn’t sure how well I’d get on with them, but I needn’t have worried. They arrived today, and after wearing them around the house for an hour or two, I found them so comfortable that I opted to wear them straight on a night out with no break-in period - and what a great decision that turned out to be. I spent the whole evening in complete comfort without the straps rubbing no matter whether I was sitting, standing or walking whilst remaining confident that they wouldn’t slip or fall back - in fact, I don’t think my feet could have been more any comfortable even if they’d been completely bare. For me, the Genesis is a brilliantly-engineered go-anywhere sandal which will provide exceptional comfort and stability in a variety of situations - I couldn’t recommend them any more highly, and they get an easy 5 stars from me."
