Bashers Footwear

Barefoot brand from South Africa.

Bashers is a South African brand whose leather barefoot boots and shoes are made in partnership with Hopewell Footwear, a family-run local factory. I like that they use traditional South African stitch-down construction with wide toe boxes and zero-drop soles. Most of the range is unisex, with boots, everyday shoes and a hiker, plus a slip-on style.

Specialities: leather, boots, hiking, unisex

How Bashers Footwear fits

wide width

Anya's Reviews found the Hiker fairly wide in the toes but slim through the heel, so I'd skip these if you have extra wide feet. Measure your foot, leave about a centimetre of wiggle room, and check the UK size chart carefully.
