Q: What's the difference between the Ursus Suede and the Ursus Canvas?
A: The Ursus Suede features a durable and premium US-sourced suede leather upper, which conforms to the shape of your foot over time. The Ursus Canvas offers a lighter, more breathable heavy-duty canvas upper which retains a firmer structure over time, ideal for activities demanding more sheer force.

Q: What's the difference between high-top and low-top?"
A: The difference between high-top and low-top shoes is in the height of the shoe's upper. High-top shoes have a higher upper that extends above the ankle, providing a small amount of support and stability to the ankle. Low-top shoes, on the other hand, have a lower upper that does not extend above the ankle, allowing for more freedom of movement and a lighter feel.

Q: Are the Ursus just for lifting?
A: No. The Ursus shoes are versatile, designed for both strength training and everyday use, offering benefits in and out of the gym.

Q: Are the Ursus recommended for flat feet?
A: Yes. They are ideal for people with flat feet as they promote natural foot movement and muscle use, potentially strengthening arch-supporting muscles by not offering excessive arch support.

Q: Are the Ursus okay for people with narrow feet?
A: Yes. Wearing shoes with a wider fit can help feet adapt and become more comfortable over time. The extra room allows the toes to spread naturally, potentially addressing the issue of atrophy caused by years of wearing restrictive footwear.

Advantages

INCREASED MUSCLE ENGAGEMENT

Promote natural foot movement, strengthening muscles and improving overall foot health. The natural motion these shoes encourage engages muscles often constrained by conventional footwear, leading to stronger and more functional feet and legs.

IMPROVED BALANCE/PROPRIOCEPTION

Enhance proprioception and balance by allowing your foot to move more naturally and engage with the ground. This can reduce the risk of falls and injuries and provide better stability.

BETTER POSTURE

Encourages a natural gait and alignment, promoting a balanced and upright posture. This can help reduce the risk of posture-related problems associated with conventional footwear.

ENHANCED SENSORY FEEDBACK

Allow for increased sensory feedback, enhancing overall movement efficiency and performance. The direct sensory input from the ground improves your foot's ability to sense changes in pressure and vibration.

DECREASED JOINT & BACK PAIN

By allowing your feet to move naturally and providing a stable platform, Bearfoot Shoes can help alleviate joint and back pain over time.

WIDE TOE BOX

ZERO-DROP

FLEXIBLE FRAME

Our shoes are wider than regular shoes to promote natural toe splay, proper balance, and weight distribution, improving foot mechanics and reducing discomfort.

Bearfoot shoes have a flat sole that mimics the natural position of your foot, promoting a natural gait and reducing the risk of injuries associated with elevated heels.

Bearfoot shoes are highly flexible, supporting the natural motion of your foot and enhancing muscle activation, stability, and proprioception.
