I've seen many chelsea type boots in barefoot models and was yet to find one that was truly aesthetically pleasing. Many of the models I've seen were less flattering shapes or just didn't look like good quality. The handmade Lupino boot both feels like quality and looks like quality and is so aesthetically pleasing. I was looking forward to trying the spring model since it's a more breathable option of a chelsea type boot for spring or fall. The boot is super lightweight and

We were so excited to receive the Shamma Trailstars Alpha and Alpha Le Models. I was looking for a dressier/classier sandal that I can dress up if I want to without compromising on function and Sean was always looking for a z strap hiking sandal. I think most people like Shamma footwear because of their function as well as being very aesthetically pleasing. Their sandals are just so rich and clean looking, very quality, and almost exquisite in design and make. I must say that

Introduction: I was really stoked about trying the Wildling's Manul handmade all natural material shoe. The earthy toned color and linen fabric upper called to me and I was really pleasantly surprised at how organic they looked and felt on my foot. Nothing compares to the feeling of wearing a shoe for the first time and feeling like it's just meant to be there, just an extension of your foot. The feel is so natural, the linen fabric so breathable and shoe so light and wonder

Introduction: These were one of my first pair of slip-ons. While compared to what I usually wear they give a more dressier vibe, they can easily be be dressed up and dressed down. The grounding plug is a huge bonus for me as someone who prefers to spend as much time barefoot as possible as I can ground even while wearing a nice pair of shoes. Their subtle yet classy look can work for someone who is not fully bought in to the barefoot world but is looking for a comfortable a

Introduction: These were my first ever pair of Wildlings. They are more of a winter/fall pair due to their wool lining. The color is extremely intriguing and playful at the same time. They reminds me of the forest and nature and the bold green hue pops anywhere. Needless to say I was impressed straight out of the box. I also was impressed by how fast the shipping was. I got it in about 3-4 days from when the order was placed. On top of all that knowing that the founders hail

Wildling Sabio Review

Introduction: I had the chance to try out another one of Wilding's new extra light summer releases - the Hanami. This shoe is somewhat of a new fresh take on colour for Wildling, who usually opt for earthy toned down colours schemes. I was instantly drawn to the fun pastel pink colour and they were a similar shape to my previous Nebula's with a different upper, so I knew they would feel great. Alex and I are big fans of Wildling as a brand and manufacturer because of their st
