NEW ERA – DOLFIE PREMIUM BAREFOOT – COMING SOON

Dear friends,

We know the wait has been long, and we truly appreciate your patience.
We haven’t been absent, we’ve been fully immersed in an exciting transformation.

After 16 years, we’ve decided to completely redesign our approach to footwear.

We’re creating something entirely new: a design that prioritizes the natural shape of the foot. This journey has led us to rethink soles, lasts, and molds with a clear goal in mind, giving your feet more space and freedom while ensuring comfort and foot health, all without compromising the quality and design that define Dolfie.

For the past year and a half, we’ve been researching, testing, and designing tirelessly. We’ve collaborated with experts to develop lasts that respect the foot’s natural anatomy and innovative zero-drop soles (with no height difference between the heel and toe), designed to improve posture, strengthen foot muscles, and reduce joint strain.

Additionally, our soles are made from natural rubber and recycled materials, reinforcing our commitment to the environment.

We know the wait may feel long, but we assure you that every day brings us closer. If you’re eager for a sneak peek, take a look at the images we’ve shared, they’re just a small preview of what’s coming.

Very soon, you’ll be able to discover our new models, designed to revolutionize the way you walk while taking care of your health and the planet.

Why this change?

Did you know that conventional shoes can deform your feet? Neither did we… until the signs became impossible to ignore.

It all started with our 10-year-old son. Every time he wore our shoes or those from any other brand, he would complain about wanting to take them off because they weren’t comfortable. Family and friends also mentioned it several times. It was a real wake-up call. How had we not noticed this before?

We decided to dig deeper, and we finally understood: conventional shoes don’t respect the natural shape of the foot, which can lead to a range of health issues.

Our feet are a masterpiece of nature, designed to move with total freedom and sensitivity. However, most conventional footwear restricts them, altering our posture and the way we walk.

Barefoot footwear respects the natural anatomy of the foot, allowing it to move as it was designed. With thin, flexible soles, zero drop, and no excessive cushioning, it helps you reconnect with the ground, strengthening muscles, improving balance, and promoting a more natural stride.

More than just a type of footwear, barefoot is a philosophy: walk with freedom, feel every step, and rediscover movement in its purest form.

That’s when we made a bold decision: to redesign everything from scratch. New lasts, soles, molds, and a complete rethinking of our production process. We knew it would be a monumental challenge, but it was the only path we could take.

Plus, we realized that most of the barefoot shoe designs out there just didn’t convince us. This drove us even more to take on the challenge and create something truly special: footwear that not only cares for foot health but also maintains the design and quality that define our brand. This challenge became the spark that led us on this exciting journey.

For us, this change means much more than designing respectful footwear. It’s a commitment to freedom, health, connection, and balance. It’s about offering you a way to walk without limitations. Once you try this type of footwear, there’s no going back. Your feet crave freedom, and that’s exactly what we want to give you.

We want everyone to experience this freedom in their own way. That’s why each pair will include two insoles:
One 8 mm insole, ideal for those new to barefoot, as it provides more cushioning and ensures a comfortable transition. The other is a 3 mm insole, for those seeking a purer, closer-to-the-ground experience, in line with the barefoot concept.

In addition, we’ll be launching a collection for kids, because we believe they deserve to grow with free feet, allowing their natural development to unfold without restrictions.

If it’s your first time wearing this type of footwear, keep in mind that your feet will need an adaptation period. Over time, you’ll notice how they strengthen and return to their natural shape. This process may vary for each person, but we assure you that, in the end, your feet will thank you. For those new to barefoot shoes, we recommend starting with the 8 mm insole to ease the transition.

One piece of advice we want to share: walk barefoot whenever you can. And when you wear shoes, choose ones that respect your feet.
