LEGUANO SHOES
FREEDOM STARTS AT YOUR FEET
ABOUT LEGUANO
Nature has it that humans enter this world barefoot. In fact the anatomy of the human foot was never designed for walking in shoes. In countries where large parts of the population walk barefoot, like India, modern civilisation’s struggles such as knee, hip and back pain are uncommon. Walking in shoes is part of our western culture, but it comes at the cost of a number of musculoskeletal symptoms which can causally be connected to it.
Leguano® barefoot shoes were designed in Germany by a group of movement specialists and barefoot professionals. After experiencing the negative effects of running in stiff shoes with maximal support, they began researching the benefits of running barefoot. They found that after a gradual and safe transition to running barefoot people, including themselves, commonly experienced less injuries and pain associated with running.
Despite the company’s initial focus being on barefoot “running shoes”, their ultimate goal was to help improve the health and well-being of the entire human population. Therefore, they came together and began creating a new type of footwear – a top quality and stylish barefoot shoe that would allow everyone to enjoy the freedom and comfort of being barefoot!

- Elasticity: the upper material expands to fit comfortably snug and returns to its original shape when you take them off.
- Breathability: the material combination does not suffocate your feet, but instead effectively allows them to breath.
- Lightweight: without the added weight of thick shoes they are extremely comfortable and perfect for travel.
- Moisture-wicking: Sweat or water is not absorbed or trapped in the shoe, but is forced to the outside.
- Quick-drying: They dry very quickly on and off the feet (especially the “sneaker style”).
- Antibacterial: the material fights bacteria keeping them fresher for longer.
