1. How to Request a Return or Exchange

All return and exchange requests are handled through our return portal. If you still have questions or concerns you can contact us.

1Contact Us

Email support@onbarefoot.com with the following information:

  • Your order number
  • The item(s) you would like to return or exchange
  • The reason for your request (sizing issue, comfort concern, defect, etc.)
  • Photos of the item(s) in their current condition

2Our Team Reviews Your Request

A member of our support team will personally review your request and respond within 24–48 hours. Depending on your situation, we may:

  • Recommend a size exchange if the fit is not right — our team can guide you to the correct size based on your measurements
  • Suggest a different style that may better suit your needs
  • Approve a return with full instructions if an exchange is not suitable
  • Provide additional guidance on the barefoot transition period, as some initial discomfort is normal when switching from conventional footwear

3Receive Authorization & Ship

If a return or exchange is approved, we will provide you with:

  • Written confirmation of approval
  • The authorized return address
  • Instructions for packing your item(s)

Once you have shipped your item, please email us your tracking number so we can monitor the return shipment. You are responsible for selecting and paying for your chosen courier. We strongly recommend using a trackable shipping method and retaining proof of postage until your refund or exchange has been fully processed.

IMPORTANT: Items shipped back without prior written authorization from our team will NOT be accepted and will not be eligible for a refund or exchange.

Exchanges are also done through our return portal. If you still have questions or concerns you can follow the instructions below:

  1. Email support@onbarefoot.com with your order number, the item you wish to exchange, and your preferred size or color.
  2. Our team will check availability of your requested item and confirm the exchange. If your requested item is unavailable, we will suggest alternatives.
  3. Once approved, follow the packing and shipping instructions provided by our team. Ship the item to our authorized return address using a trackable courier of your choice. Please send us your tracking number once shipped.
  4. Your exchange item ships within 3–5 business days after we receive and inspect your original item.

There is no restocking fee for exchanges. If the exchange item has a different price, you will be charged the difference (higher price) or refunded the difference (lower price).

For verified defective or incorrect items (non-promotional), we will:
