A one-minute video breakdown of my favorite minimal shoes.


I get compliments on my Lems all the time. One young man couldn’t control himself and felt me up when I was wearing my Lems Primal 2. I should say it was my toes he felt up (through the fabric of course) and straightened the tongue of my shoes! Anyway, I was a little creeped out, but oddly flattered. 

These are my cute feet looking bashful in my Lems minimal shoes.

Minimal shoes have a thin flexible sole that allows you to feel and respond to the ground, stones, roots, or whatever else you may be walking on. I think it feels pretty dang good. I seek out stones and lumpy surfaces to walk on just because it feels so good. It’s like a natural reflexology treatment.

Before you jump into a pair of minimal shoes, consider this…your feet have probably been cast in narrow toe-boxed, elevated heeled shoes for decades, so it’s always best to transition slowly into wearing minimalist shoes to give your tissues time to adapt. A good place to start is by reading Katy Bowman’s book Whole Body Barefoot, transitioning to minimal footwear.

Correct Toes™ spread your toes so they are in the correct position relative to each other and the ground. They are great for bunions, neuromas, hammertoes, plantar fasciosis and more. For more information on Correct Toes™ click HERE.

To review, this is what to look for in minimal shoes:

  • Look for a shoe that is flat (heel and ball of the foot are at the same altitude)
  • Shoes that are flexible (they let your feet be feet)
  • minimal to no toe spring
  • a wide toe box. Wide enough to wear your Correct Toes™ if needed.
