Fitting Notes

- Between sizes? We recommend sizing up
- These are OnBarefoot sizes, the same ones on the size buttons. They are not US sizes, so match your measured foot length to the CM column rather than picking your usual number
- Measure feet at the end of the day when they're largest
- Always use your larger foot's measurement

Why your feet hurt
Your shoes have been working against your feet
Tap a spot to see why it hurts.
-
When your feet are tilted all day, everything above them adjusts to compensate.
In AnchorYour weight spreads across the whole foot instead of the ball. -
A raised heel tips you forward, and your knees absorb what your feet cannot.
In AnchorNo hard shape pressing on one spot all day. -
A stiff sole stops your foot bending, so the work travels up into your lower legs.
In AnchorYour foot moves instead of being held still. -
Your toes are held in a point all day, so the widest part of your foot carries the pressure.
In AnchorYour toes splay instead of being pressed into a point.
Nothing pressing. Nothing tilting.

Questions
Anchor questions, answered
How do I choose the right size in the Anchor?
The Anchor fits true to size for most people. Since barefoot shoes can run slightly short, size up half a size if you are between sizes or have wider feet. These are US sizes, and women and men have separate sizing you switch with the Women and Men buttons at the top of the page.
What are they made of and what are they best for?
The Anchor pairs a breathable mesh upper with a lightweight flexible sole. It is a versatile all day shoe made for everyday wear, running errands, work, and casual outings. It is the kind of pair you reach for on repeat.
What does the zero drop and wide toe box feel like?
Your heel and forefoot sit level, which keeps your posture natural, and the wide toe box lets your toes spread and grip. Many people feel more grounded and free once they adjust, all under a clean minimalist look.
Do I need to break them in?
The Anchor is comfortable early thanks to the soft mesh and flexible sole. If you are new to barefoot shoes, start with shorter wears and build up so your feet and lower legs adapt to the thin sole.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap to lift everyday dirt. For a deeper clean, use a soft brush and lukewarm water, then air dry away from direct heat. Skip the dryer, since high heat can affect the materials and shape.
What is the difference between the women's and men's Anchor?
The style and materials match across both. The sizing and proportions differ, so use the Women and Men buttons at the top of the page to pick the right fit.
What is your return policy?
You are covered by a 30 day money back guarantee. If the Anchor does not work for you, contact us within 30 days for a full refund. We ship to the US and CA.
