Splay shoes generally run true to size.

However, due to Splay's unisex sizing and barefoot shoe shape, there are some slight differences for men and for women:

Women: If you are in-between sizes, we recommend that you order the larger size. If anything, Splay shoes run a little small for women.

Men: If you are in-between sizes, we recommend that you order the smaller size. If anything, Splay shoes run a little large for men.

Children & Youth: Our children and youth shoes generally run true to size. Please double check by printing out our Sizing Guide.

*If you are unsure about sizing, please visit our sizing page.

    Great shoes

    Been hunting decent barefoots shoes for the past few years and recently decided to grab some Splays (I was mildly reluctant due to import taxes) but I picked up some Splay 101s and some Runners and they are exactly what I hoped for.

    Couldn't be happier here

    What I’ve been looking for!

    I’ve been barefoot for a while and these are by far the best shoes I’ve had in this category. Obviously these aren’t exactly athletic shoes but for casual shoes that I can rip on my longboard with they are PERFECT.

    As a long time Vans lover (I exclusively buy the wide oldskools) these are a very very solid alternative. I’ll still buy vans, cuz cmon they’re vans. But these are 100% something I would replacing vans with if I had to choose.

    The toebox is much wider than even the wide vans I buy.

    10/10 recommend.

    A year and half later and I still love them!

    I've worn these for a year and a half now and they're still my favorite general use kicks. I wore the original Freestyles before these and while they aren't as flexible as those, the 101s are essentially perfect for daily wear.
