Barefoot Shoe's - Where Fashion Meets Function!

 ​Good Day Folks

Today is the day we get to share some exciting news with you all.
And guess what, you too get to benefit from it.
In-fact more specifically, your foot health and over-well-being will thank you for it.

Kinisi Fit Ltd is happy to announce our new brand collaboration with Bohempia. This is a brand new barefoot company who are leading the way with there barefoot shoe collection but this time where fashion meets barefoot function!

As you know we are both HUGE advocates of barefoot shoes, having wore them for well over a decade and educating on the benefits of barefoot shoes.

Part 1 - Let's Talk Foot Health

Your foot consists of 
10 tendons
19 muscles
26 bones 
33 joints 
107 ligaments 
Approx 200,000 nerv endings 

​Feet have carried humans through life without additional support for thousands of years. The need for constant foot support in the form of stiff shoes is a modern plague, and one that largely affects the developed world. But we know that feet aren’t fundamentally flawed. Rather our modern lifestyles are. Excessive sitting combined with restrictive shoes from an early age put a real damper on our ability to move freely. 
​
You see, your feet are engineered for movement & sensory feedback, so why would you want to lose this and put them into foot coffins for the sake of fashion!

Our feet are our foundation and play a massive role in everything we do from a movement perspective. They are involved in many humans things we  do, from walking, running, skipping, jumping, absorbing, balancing, lifting, squatting etc. And the function of our feet has a HUGE impact on our bodies. There is a kinetic chain running from our big toes, through our arch, up our legs and into the hips and spine that affects everything we do as humans. Yet are often neglected and tucked away in un-foot shaped shoes which often lead to poor foot mechanics and foot health as they can’t truly perform as a human foot is designed to.

Wearing barefoot shoes is one way to improve foot health as:

1. It provides better connection to the floor which allows the feet to move freely and work as intended, splay, grip & absorb.
2. It helps to develop foot resilience/strength which can mitigate foot, ankle and knee injuries
3. Less joint pain from having a good foundation and a properly working functioning foot.
4. No more squished toes, blisters or painful feet from forcing your feet into un-natural shoe shaped shoe’s

Part 2 - Fashion Meets Function

For all our fashion conscious lovers out there. We are happy to share with you a new brand called Bohempia barefoot shoes who are leading the way with there barefoot shoe collection but this time where fashion meets barefoot function.

​Not only that but Bohempia are made from hemp - which makes them an environmentally friendly sustainable option! As hemp is a renewable resource that is naturally strong, breathable, and antimicrobial. So the shoes are not harmful to the environment, or to your body! 

Yes, it’s time to throw away your narrow cult classic’s like converse and vans as they have the perfect replacement for stylish sneakers, that will look just as cool but without the squished toes!

'Personally, I have long been searching for barefoot alternatives
​ to those brand names and Bohempia has done just that.'

​Part 3- Benefits of wearing Barefoot Bohempia Shoes:

• Foot shaped shoe - This allows your toes to spread out naturally instead of being pinched together. I love the wide toe box of the Bohemia style you can really feel your foot able to splay out and move naturally.

• Thin & Flexible – The thick padding on other sneakers prevents your foot from sensing the ground and moving with its environment. While Bohempia shoes are not paper thin, the sole is much thinner than it looks and they allow for a more natural experience when walking and standing.

 

• Sizing - As avid barefoot wearer myself, I found the shoe true to size and very spacious, which I love.  However, I would suggest if your not used to wearing barefoot shoes, to get your foot measured before ordering so that you find the correct barefoot size for you. You can check out the size chart on how to measure your feet.

 

• Comfort - This is a non-negotiable when it comes to footwear and Bohempia's sneaker has passed the the 3 rule test! There's are 3 assessments of comfort when it comes to wearing wearable sneakers which are:

1) Your foot and toes are not squished 
2) No rubbing or blisters from wearing the sneaker
3) How much connection & feedback there is in relation to the floor.
​

• Style - Bohempia are most definitely leading the way in term's of barefoot fashion! The sneaker is stylish and an essential part of everyone's capsule wardrobe. These sneakers will take you through from season too season, which is what we call a "forever piece" as you can style it with pretty anything in your wardrobe. ​You can watch a video here
