POKEBOO successfully designed the first barefoot Rain boot. A Compact, light, and to the point Design.
Information and concerns about the Pokeboo for Barefoot Users.
The pokeboo comes as near to a barefoot shoe as it can. The toebox, is indeed not as wide as a classic normal barefoot shoe, but it is not very tight either.
As the shoe is made of thin (100% natural) rubber, it is very flexible and still leaves enough freedom for the toes. You can always remove the sole for an extra barefoot feel.
It Is 100% A RAIN BOOT but… BAREFOOT.
Always take into account that it is and remains a rain boot. Which is designed to be compact and to sit firmly and comfortable on the foot when walking; so that it doesn't fall off or get caught in the mud.
The Pokeboo has its origins in the boots of rice planters and after a few decades has evolved into the compact barefoot boot it is today.
TARGET GROUP & USE
There is a large audience for POKEBOO, making it suitable not only for barefoot customers but also for outdoor trekking, travel, spare boots for cycling in the rain, camping, etc. It is a lightweight and compact model that can be quickly stored anywhere.
A good backup to always carry with you or have in the car / Bike bag as a backup barefoot boot.
“The Pokeboo is the perfect Barefoot shoe for my daily dog walks through the fields.”
“I was sceptical at first, yet after wearing them and having my first ‘trial’ walk I was convinced and satisfied.”
