Libertas

Barefoot brand from Spain.

Libertas is a Spanish brand that makes barefoot ballet flats, sandals and sneakers, mainly for women. I like that the flats are handcrafted in Spain from soft kid leather, with a tabi-style split toe, a wide toe box and a thin, flexible 2 mm sole. It's a good pick if you want barefoot shoes that look dressy rather than technical.

How Libertas fits

wide width, low volume

The toe area is roomy and the Tabi styles have a split big toe, so they suit wider forefeet but lower volume feet. Libertas say to size up if you're between sizes, and some buyers found them snug, so measure first.
