functionality that improves your foot strength and sense of balance, maximizing the inherent functionality of your feet. “Barefoot” has been gaining attention in recent years, but many people feel that it is a “stoic shoe” due to the trend toward thinner soles and simpler shoes. LEMS shoes are “minimalist barefoot shoes” that maintain the functionality of barefoot shoes while adding moderate cushioning. By adding the minimum amount of cushioning necessary without compromising the barefoot sensation, you can gradually get used to the stimulation on the soles of your feet that is unique to barefoot shoes. These are more comfortable barefoot shoes that are easy to wear even for those who are worried about the sudden barefoot sensation.

functionality, and minimal cushioning In addition to authentic barefoot functionality and easy-to-wear minimal cushioning, the casual design that is typical of American products is also its greatest feature. Barefoot shoes are often perceived as “core and stoic” due to their distinctive silhouette that can be recognized at a glance and their functionality that sets them apart from conventional shoes. For those who have been wondering whether they are suitable for them and whether they will fit into their usual fashion but have never had the opportunity to try them out. LEMS’ minimalist shoes combine minimal functionality that anyone can easily get started with with versatility that can blend in and adapt to any scene, from everyday life to activities.
