Do not be fooled by Barestep shoes. They are a total scam. They are selling cheap shoes for R1090 and supposedly at a 65% discount. This is a lie. The exact shoes can be bought from AliExpress for under $10. They are most certainly not South African and the company is not in South Africa but Cyprus. The nonsense story about 2 guys meeting climbing Table Mountain is a lie. Do your homework. Ever wonder why there is no branding on the shoe? The answer I got from BareStep is ‘ In line with the minimalism of barefoot shoes, we have kept our brand minimalist too.’ Googled Wendy Knowles – The marketing story that turned out to be a barefaced lie. You have been warned.
