FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Sizing & Fit
How do I find my size?
Measure your foot from heel to longest toe in centimeters. Add 0.5–1 cm for comfort. Match to our Size Guide. When between sizes, size up.
Are EQUINOX shoes true to size?
Yes — our sizing follows standard EU measurements. However, if you're transitioning from conventional shoes, your foot may spread over time and you may prefer a half size larger after a few months.
Do you offer wide widths?
All EQUINOX shoes feature a wide toe box by design — there's no narrow option. If you have very wide feet, size up by one.
Barefoot Transition
Will my feet hurt when I first start wearing barefoot shoes?
Mild soreness is completely normal for the first 1–2 weeks. Your foot muscles are activating for the first time. Start with 1–2 hours per day and gradually increase. Most customers feel a significant difference by week 3–4.
Can I wear barefoot shoes if I have flat feet or plantar fasciitis?
Many customers with flat feet and plantar fasciitis report improvement after transitioning to barefoot shoes. However, we always recommend consulting your healthcare provider before making significant changes to your footwear.
How long does it take to fully transition?
Most people feel fully comfortable within 4–8 weeks. The transition depends on your current foot strength and how long you've worn conventional shoes.

Product Care
How do I clean my EQUINOX shoes?
Most models can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried. Avoid machine washing and direct heat. For water shoes, rinse thoroughly after use in saltwater or chlorine.
How long do barefoot shoes last?
With regular use, most EQUINOX shoes last 12–18 months. The flexible sole may wear faster than conventional shoes — this is normal and a sign that the shoe is working correctly.
