Vaistoa

Barefoot brand from Finland, founded 2021.

Vaistoa is a Finnish brand that designs its barefoot shoes in Finland, with the manufacturing done in China. I'd describe the range as mostly unisex adult shoes and boots, covering everyday, winter, hiking and gym styles, plus a smaller kids range. They have zero-drop soles and a foot-shaped toe box, and the materials are things like recycled polyester, synthetic rubber and vegan leather. They also sell insoles and shoe care products.

Specialities: unisex, kids, winter, boots, hiking

How Vaistoa fits

sloped toe box, standard width, medium volume

I'd say these suit average width feet best, with a foot-shaped toe box and decent room over the top. Use the model-specific size chart, as toe room is already included, and size up if you're between sizes or want more space.
