Introducing
101
Effortless vintage style with a modern barefoot spin. Based on the classic athletic shoes of the 70s and 80s, the Splay 101 is our most fashion forward design yet. Classic, casual, and undeniably cool.
★★★★★
A Revolutionary Shoe! This shoe is like no other. I’ve had them for about two weeks now and they have become my favorite pair by far. The comfort is great, they look great, and my feet aren’t squished! I definitely am going to be getting more.

I've always struggled to find comfortable shoes for my feet, as they're very wide. These are, by far, the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, from the start. I really like the fit and the style is not obviously barefoot. The only way to make this even better is to open up in the U.K.!

I have made a huge review of different barefoot shoes before buying Splay. They are by far the nicest and stylish brand there, with a really fair price. Great quality shoe. My foot is wide and the shoes are really comfortable, without loosing design.My husband and I bought one each in October, we have bought 5 more pairs since then. Super happy!
I totally recommend them!

Amazingly comfortable shoes but not built to last. The sole on my pair is separating and I’ve maybe worn them 30-40 times over the past year. Main uses are walking around the city running errands, occasionally to work.

I really love the retro styling of this shoe, and was thrilled at how wide they were. Massive let down when I wore them out and about for the first time; the area across the toes is incredibly tight and low volume, to a degree that I experienced rubbing on the top of my little toes, which is something I've never experienced before in any barefoot shoe.
Taking the insole out helped a bit, but there simply isn't enough height across the toes, particulalry at the outer edge of the shoe. It's rare that a pair of barefoot shoes is uncomfortable out of the box, or needs breaking in - I've owned a lot of barefoot shoes acroos many brands. I'm hoping the leather and suede will continue to wear in and flex a bit, otherwise I'll be donating these to a shoe bank unfortunately.
