The Complete Barefoot Sandals List – Updated for 2024

Summertime is when barefoot sandals really shine. There are loads of zero drop, minimalist sandals for casual, athletic, or dressy purposes: you can have your pick! Whether you’re a barefoot runner or just want to maintain healthy feet, choosing barefoot sandals over flip flops and heels will pay dividends back to your body.

Below you’ll find a complete list of barefoot sandals that are zero drop, flexible, and secure to your foot for adults and kids!

Athletic Barefoot Sandals

One of the great things about barefoot sandals is you can comfortably exercise in them! I personally love to exercise in sandals over sneakers, and I find that barefoot sandals allow me to comfortably do so. The sandals in this section are all great for hiking, walking, and running, but also double as lifestyle shoes for everyday wear.

72 thoughts on “Barefoot & Minimalist Summer Sandals – The Complete 2024 List”

  1. Are there any minimalist sandals with perhaps a single piece of material that holds the foot and ankle but easy to slip into without using hands (and preferably without a toe post)? Primarily seeking something to effortlessly slip into that’s open-toed for momentary wear.

  2. I have high volume feet and really want to transition to barefoot but I have trouble using flat uncushioned shoes which is why I avoid sandals. I got the Chacos but the arch support is too much. What are some transitional sandals that are good for the pool and showers? Seems like oesh Is an option but how do they differ from a regular pair of tevas for example? Anything on the cheap side just for the pool?

    Are there any articles here talking about transitional shoes?

    1. Hi there! Teva’s are typically cushioned, have a small heel rise, and some mild arch support (less than Chacos I’d say). Oesh is completely flat, no heel rise, and no support, but they are thicker overall. Those sound like an option for you. Shamma, Bedrock, and Earth Runners also make sandals with a thicker sole. You can read about those and other transition type shoes in this article.

    2. Can you recommend any cute transitional sandals for low volume, fallen arch feet? I am recovering from plantar fasciitis and slowly dipping into minimalist shoes.
      Thanks in advance!
