What our Customers are saying

I love that this one shoe works for absolutely anything I have planned for the day, and does it in style! From top to bottom, SOM shoes are the best "barefoot for the real world" shoe out there
S.C. of Issaquah, WA

They are awesome! I think it's great that not only do you build such awesome shoes, but you help *keep* them awesome. I am blown away by your customer service. Your shoes rock. You guys rock.
P. H. of Anchorage, AK

The natural footshape is the most important factor for me. SOMs revitalized my life as a climbing guide. They have been so beneficial for my foot health over the past year. I love them!

Great fit, great feel, made in USA—best sneakers I've ever had.
