Die Sandalen der Generation Nº4 werden nicht mehr hergestellt.
Unsere neusten Modelle findest du hier

  • Vegane Sandalen ohne Leder, ohne Ausbeutung
  • Leichte und biegsame Sohle: 4.5 mm dünn
  • Sandalen ohne Absatz (Nullabsatz/Zerodrop)
  • Mehrere Trageweisen

Was ist neu bei der Sandale Nº4?

  1. Bei dieser Variante ist der Zehenring ohne Schnalle.
    Der Zehenring hat die gleiche Farbe und besteht aus dem selben Obermaterial wie der restliche Schuh. Die Weite des Zehenrings entspricht der des Vorgängermodells Nº3.

  2. Die Nº4 wird mit den abnehmbaren Y-Straps geliefert: Die neuen Verschlussriemchen (wir nennen Sie Y-Straps) halten deine HiGH FEELS noch besser am Fuß. Du kannst sie mittels Schnellverschluss an- und ausziehen, ohne die Schnallen schließen oder öffnen zu müssen.
    Die Binderiemchen zum Dranklipsen gibts extra.

Was ist das Besondere?

Unsere Sandalen sind "Barfußschuhe" ohne Absatz. Die biegsame Sohle ohne Fußbett schützt dich vor pieksigen Steinchen und Scherben, lässt dich aber die Welt mit all deinen Sinnen erleben. Du fühlst stets den Boden unter deinen Füßen und behältst die Kontrolle über jeden deiner Schritte.

Du musst dich nicht zwischen der Zweckmäßigkeit von Flip Flops und dem Laufgefühl in Sandalen entscheiden. Die Verschlussriemchen sind abnehmbar.

Du kannst deine HiGH FEELS auch mit Binderiemchen tragen. Und du kannst kreativ werden und deine HiGH FEELS mit eigenen Bändchen oder Tüchern binden, ganz wie's dir beliebt.

Wir sind mega neugierig, wie du deine HiGH FEELS kombinierst! Tagge uns auf Instagram: #highfeels @highfeels #barfussschuhe

Größe und Passform

Die Nº4 fällt "normal" aus, und es hat sich größenmäßig nichts im Vergleich zur Nº3 geändert. Um deine Größe vorab zu prüfen, lade unseren Size Guide runter, drucke ihn in Originalgröße aus und stelle deinen Fuß drauf.

Wenn du zum ersten Mal in deine neuen Sandalen schlüpfst, mag sich die Sohle noch etwas steifer anfühlen. Das ist normal und nach 3–4 Tagen sind sie eingetragen. Dabei wird die Sohle flexibler und passt sich an deinen Fuß an.

Farbe

  • Riemchen: Haselnussbraun, schimmmert wie kandierter Zucker
  • Schnallen und Ringchen: Hellgold, fast Silber
  • Futter: Genauso wie die Riemchen
  • Untersohle: Schwarz

Material

Wir verwenden immer die am besten geeigneten Leder-Alternativen, die wir finden können. Unsere Materialien stammen aus Italien und Spanien.

  • Die Obersohle und die Innenseiten der Riemchen bestehen aus einem atmungsaktiven Mikrofaser-Gewebe, das Feuchtigkeit aufnimmt und abgibt. Also kein Rutschen und keine Schweißfüße :)
    - Frei von Chromium VI
    - Ökologisches CO2-freies Herstellungsverfahren
    - OEKO-TEX® Standard 100
  • Die Riemchen sind weich und angenehm auf der Haut (Mikrofaser)
  • Der Zehenring besteht ebenfalls aus Mikrofaser mit PU-Beschichtung und ist zur Sicherheit mit der Sohle vernäht.
  • Die Untersohle besteht aus einem griffigen Gummigemisch. Sie ist biegsamer denn je, leicht geriffelt und bietet guten Halt.

Herstellung

Deine Sandalen werden in der Nähe der Stadt Alicante in Spanien hergestellt. Wir wollen weder Tiere noch Menschen quälen, deshalb verzichten wir auf Leder und stellen sie in fairer Produktion her. Sie werden in Handarbeit gemacht, daher sind kleine Unregelmäßigkeiten normal.

Minimal Shoes / Barefoot Shoes

What are barefoot shoes or minimal shoes?

Barefoot shoes will allow your feet to move freely and will come very close to giving you a “walking-like-barefoot” feeling.

  • Barefoot shoes won’t squeeze your toes into a narrow toe box. Instead, barefoot shoes will give your toes enough “wiggle room” to let them move any way they want.
  • Your feet will regain their sense of touch, because barefoot shoes have a thin sole that will enable your feet to truly feel the ground beneath them.
  • Barefoot shoes have a flexible sole that will adapt to your feet and will follow each of their movements
  • In contrast to conventional footwear, barefoot shoes don’t come with unnecessary padding or “footbeds”, as your feet are naturally capable of absorbing any shock from walking or running – just like walking barefoot.

HiGH FEELS are my first barefoot shoes. Is there anything I need to know?

You’ve always worn shoes with cushioning, an elevated heel or you rarely walk barefoot? In these cases we suggest to transition slowly to this new freedom.

So, please don’t go all in on the first day and take them on an day-long walk around town – you might feel muscles coming alive in you feet you never knew even existed :D Walking in barefoot shoes for the first time is almost like taking off a cast. You need to slowly regain the mobility of your joints, as your ankles have to work very little in conventional shoes. In time, you will train all of these 60 muscles and 214 tendons and you can start exploring the world with happy and healthy feet!

Returns and Claims

Can I return my HiGH FEELS shoes?

If your HiGH FEELS shoes are not the right fit for you, you can return them during 14 days after receiving the package, according to our return policy.

Please make sure that the shoes are clean, unworn and in their original packaging when sending them back. You can of course try them on at home.

Please register your return request with our return form here.

You will then receive all the information necessary for your return. You’ll have to bear the return costs. If your order exceeded the amount of 70.- EUR, we recommend choosing shipping with a tracking code and insurance.

I used the size guide but the shoes are still not a good fit. Can I exchange them to a different size?

If you’ve used our size guide to figure out your best size, please check if the reference line on the printouts is exactly 10cm long. Even small differences can have an impact and possibly distort proportions.

You’ve printed out the size guide correctly? There might be other factors why you don’t feel comfortable with the ordered size e.g. personal preferences on sole length.

In case you would like to try a different size, please place a new order in our shop. You can register your return request here.

You are not sure which size to pick? Contact us and we will figure it out together.

My HiGH FEELS are damaged or defective. What can I do?

Our shoes are handmade with love and we put great care into ensuring that our materials and workmanship are of high quality. If you are unhappy with your shoes, please contact us and we will find a quick solution.

Do I have to bear the costs of the return for damaged or defective shoes?

No, we will refund your return shipping costs. We kindly ask you to send us a picture of your return shipping receipt and the tracking number. We will send the refunds through the same method that you used for the original payment; in case you paid via debit- or credit card, we'll refund the amount via bank transfer.

You can register your return request here. Please also leave a note that your items are damaged/defective.

When will I get my refund?

Your refund will always be credited to the payment method you used when purchasing the returned items. We will issue the refunds once your returned items arrived at our warehouse and have been checked.

I already returned my order but have not received my refund yet. What could be the reason?

As soon as your return arrives at our warehouse, it will be checked before we can issue a refund. Depending on our workload there might be a couple of days between your return arriving and you receiving the refund. We are sorry for any inconveniences this might be causing.

You’ve got a question about your return? Drop us a message (in case you have it handy, please state the tracking code of your returned items).

Restocks and Custom Designs

My size is currently out of stock. Will there be any restocks?

Yes, there are usually restocks during spring/summer but also we usually produce limited amounts of sizes and designs. However, near the end of the season there is only a slim chance of a restock.

I fell in love with an older HiGH FEELS design but can’t find it on the website. Will it come back in stock?

No, usually older designs and colors that you can no longer find in our shop will not be restocked. Special edition colors are usually only available for a short period of time. This way we can play around with new colors every year :)

Do you offer custom designs?

This would be awesome but we can’t offer any custom-design options right now.

Size and Fit

»Black Swan« Boots – notes on sizing

If you already own a pair of HiGH FEELS sandals, we recommend you to choose one size bigger for the boots. Download our size guide, print it in original size and let your feet decide :)

You can find more tips on finding the right fit on our product page.

How will I know what size to choose?

Our sandals are true to size. If you wear 39 in open shoes or sandals, then order a size 39. You can download our size guide for Sandal No.5, print it in original size and let your feet decide :) Still not sure? Contact us and we will find the right size for you.

How do I use the size guide?

To start out, make sure that you’ve selected the right settings on your printer so that it prints in original size (don’t select “fit to page”). Then print out the template in the size you usually wear and place your feet on the sole shape.

The perfect fit also depends on your personal preferences. We recommend you to choose a size where you still have some space between your feet and the edge of the sole (approx. 0,5 cm in the front and in the back). This way your feet will have enough wiggle room but you won’t trip over your sole either.

In case you are unsure, are between sizes or the result differs from your usual size: Drop us a message before you place your order and we will find the right fit together.

I have wide feet. Will HiGH FEELS sandals be too narrow for me?

Our sole is designed to give your forefoot enough space to move freely and spread the toes. If you already had many problems with shoes being too narrow and you are unsure about our sole, please send us a couple of photos of your feet standing on the printouts of our size guide to help@highfeels.com and we will find the right fit together :)

I have very narrow feet. Will HiGH FEELS sandals be too wide for me?

For narrow feet we recommend you to choose our sandals with laces, as they can be tied more snugly around your ankles. If you are unsure, please send us a couple of photos of your feet standing on the printouts of our size guide to help@highfeels.com and we will find the right fit together :)

My toe ring is quite tight. Is there anything I can do?

The toering might feel a bit tight when you first try on your sandals. After some time the material will get more soft and give in a bit. To speed up this process you can pull the toe rings over a bottleneck overnight.

If you are unsure, please send us a couple of photos of your feet standing on the printouts of our size guide to help@highfeels.com.

My toe ring is too loose. Is there anything I can do?

If your toe ring feels too loose and you feel like your feet don’t have enough grip, please send us a couple of photos of your feet standing on the printouts of our size guide to help@highfeels.com and we will help you out.

Tips on wearing in your HiGH FEELS

The more time you spend in your HiGH FEELS, the more comfortable they get. The straps, the toe ring and the sole of your sandals will feel softer after a couple of days. You want to get there faster? You can knead and roll up the soles a couple of times. This way they will adapt to your foot shape more quickly. If you have any problems, contact us.

Care

How do I care for my HiGH FEELS shoes?

Please don’t impregnate your HiGH FEELS shoes. These products are usually not suitable for direct skin contact as they are often made with harmful substances.

When you take your HiGH FEELS shoes on many small and big adventures it is important that you clean them regularly, air them out afterwards and never store them damp/wet.This way they will last for a long time.

How do I clean my HiGH FEELS shoes?

  • You can easily remove light dirt or loose dust with a damp cloth.
  • For heavier stains, use a cloth dipped in water mixed with a mild detergent. An old toothbrush might do the trick for very stubborn stains. Then rinse your sandals thoroughly under running water and let them air dry.

Please don’t put your sandals in the washer and don’t use a dryer or blow dryer to dry them off as both appliances will produce too much heat.

What can I do if my HiGH FEELS start to smell after wear?

The insole and the inside of the sandal straps are made from a breathable microfibre that will absorb as well as give off moisture. This might sometimes lead to your sandals smelling a bit funky. To get rid of these smells, it is usually enough to give them a good cleaning.

If this doesn’t help, you can either sprinkle some bicarbonate of soda on its own onto the insoles or mix it with water. Let it sit for a couple of hours or overnight and remove it with some water. The soda will saponify the fatty acids that are responsible for the smell and kill them. All should smell fresh again :D

Manufacturing and Materials

Are all HiGH FEELS shoes vegan?

Yes! :D Right from the beginning, we knew that we would only want to make leather-free, vegan shoes.

Can I wear HiGH FEELS sandals in the water?

Some people have already asked if they can wear our sandals in the water. We have not tested it, but our answer is: NOOOOOO, please do not! Of course you can wear them in the rain, but don't wear them for river crossings and don't wear them in the sea or pool.

Who makes my shoes?

Your shoes are produced near Alicante in Spain. Good working conditions and fair payment are very important to us. The workers in our factory are qualified and experienced shoemakers and are paid accordingly. There is lots of space, all sewing rooms have heaps of natural light and ventilation (very important for working with glue).

What we like the most: the work atmosphere is relaxed, even if there’s a deadline to catch or a mistake made. The manager has a good relationship with everyone and no one seems stressed. This creates a very calm and focussed environment.

Our shoes are mostly made by hand. This is why every pair is unique and some differences between them are also reminders that they were not made by a machine but a human being :)

Where do you get your materials from?

We use materials from Italy and Spain and are always on the lookout for the best vegan and sustainable alternatives possible.

In the future we would love to make a plastic free HiGH FEELS version. It is a challenge though to find fabrics that we like, that are durable enough and available. But we will carry on trying :D

Didn’t find the right answer for your question here?

Just ask, we speak English and German.

Perfekt!

Die Sandalen gehen schnell zum Anziehen (praktisch, dass man die Schnalle am Fußgelenk nur einklinken und nicht immer auf und zu machen muss). Die Sohle ist super dünn, die Schuhe passen allgemein wunderbar (Zehenriemen passt auch super), das Material sieht Leder sehr ähnlich und die Schuhe sind wirklich sehr schön. Ich habe auch schon einige Komplimente dafür erhalten.

Rock'n rolltaugliche Barfussalternative

Mit diese wirklich zauberhaften Schuhe hab ich endlich eine Sommerschuh der gut aussieht und viel mit macht. Da ich normalerweise wirklich viel Barfuss laufe, sind die Highfeels endlich eine Lösung, wenn Schuhe sein müssen. Ich fühl mich mit ihnen einfach sau stark. Egal ob Geröllhalde mit Kind auf dem Rücken oder 8 Stunden im Service arbeiten oder auch einfach nur gemeinsam gesittet gut aussehen. Leider ist der Zehenriemen bei meinem Modell noch nicht verstellbar und ziemlich locker. .Es mussten halt die Braunen sein. Auch auf die y-Straps hätte ich verzichten können. Der Versand in die Schweiz ist ätzend, aber machbar und ich wäre nicht die einzige, die den Aufpreis direkt an euch zahlen würde. Abschliessend - Danke! ich freu mich wenn's wieder warm genug ist.

Winter

Nicht dass ich sie für den Winter gekauft hätte, aber sie vermitteln auch dann, gerade dann ein intensives Erlebnis, tatsächlich ist der Name Programm. Ich finde, bei kühleren Temperaturen haben sie einen besonderen Reiz, ich habe jetzt bereits mein zweites Paar gekauft und ganz SICHER nicht das Letzte. Bisher habe ich keine vergleichbaren Barfußsandalen gefunden, und gesucht habe ich eine Menge. Sie zu tragen ist ein wirklich sinnliches Erlebnis, ich bin sehr gespannt auf neue Farben und Modelle. Sie fallen auf? Ein wenig schon, zumindest wenn sie ein Mann trägt. Es mag eben nicht jeder Mainstream, ein wahrhaft tolles Nischenprodukt! Ich wünsche Euch für Eure Idee alles Liebe und Gute, Elmar

Toller Schuh. Y-Straps nicht das Richtige für mich.

Ich liebe die Highfeels zum Binden! Leider müssen die Bindebänder nun gesondert bestellt und bezahlt werden und die Y-Straps sind Standard. Diese finde ich aber unkomfortabel. Es wäre toll,wenn man bei der Bestellumg wählen könnte. Da ich nicht gerne etwas kaufe,was ich dann nicht nutze,habe ich alles zurückgeschickt. Leider,leider...
