Customer video review of Rise IV - Winter Barefoot Boots

They are really warm & fluffy inside.... Altho it's a shame they have very long shoelaces. I have bad arthritic fingers,which make shoelaces impossible 🥲😬

Really great shoes! So glad I got them. Now I finally have some nice, warm barefoot style boots to keep my feet warm and dry in winter. Thanks guys!

The boots fit extremely well and having warm dry feet while I am out coaching is fantastic. I highly recommend these to anyone

Another great product, just what I need for walking the dog on a cold wet winters evening.

I was looking for a more robust version of my vivobarefoot toe shoes for wet/cold walks. i had to go up a size but the exchange process was very straightforward. They are quite wide though so you really have to tighten the laces to stop them slopping about. i hope they will be what I need - my right ankle is being pressed quite badly and I will have to see how I can pad that. That's a me thing not a shoe thing sadly.

I bought these for my 85 year old father who still works on his farm. He was having trouble with his feet after years of constrictive footwear including a recurring corn. He is so happy with the boots and wears them most days. He says his feet have much more room and he has much less pain.

I Love these shoes!!! Cozy & snug. Looking forward to more shopping soon :) Thank You for making shoes that fit my wide feet :)

Rise IV - Winter Barefoot Boots

Love that these are waterproof and warm. My feet definitely appreciate this on cold mornings taking the dogs to the park. The sizing is a bit smaller than other shoes I have purchased which is disappointing as my toes don't quite have the wriggle room I was hoping for. Overall they are great for the purpose I bought them for.

I like the boots. However, I don't lace the boots right to the top, because if I do it pushes my big toes into the front of the boot, so I just lace the flat part of the boot and double tie the extra long laces so that I don't step on them. I really needed warm waterproof footwear due to where I live.

Delivery was on time My boots fit well I have wide feet and there was room for my toes to spread out Did a 5km walk straight away to test them out No foot pain and my feet were warm They’re definitely waterproof I did size up

They're very good but seem a bit smaller than a 39. And they're much stronger and stiffer than my barefoots. But the quality is very good and I think we will adjust to each other well. At least I can work in the rain now!

Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback—we’re delighted to hear it! 💚 The comments you made about the shoes being ‘a little on the small side’ and feeling ‘stiffer’ actually reflect the specific design choices we’ve made with the materials—to provide better protection and durability when working in the rain, the upper is constructed to be slightly sturdier, so it may take a little while to break in at first. We’re pleased that you’re willing to give them—and yourself—a chance to settle in; we’re confident they’ll become more and more comfortable on your feet.

This boot is a little small for sizing and stiff around the ankle. Not as comfy as I would have hoped

Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback, we have received it. We are sorry that these winter boots did not fully meet your expectations in terms of sizing and ankle comfort. Your opinions are very important to us, and we will continue to optimize our products to strive for a better wearing experience. 💚💚

Unfortunately these boots fit smaller than regular Saguaro sizes, it's a bit unfortunate. i'm normally a 44 and that was way too small, 45 is just on the border of too small but do i want to go through the hassle of changing again (btw the exchange process was easy, it's just hassle) and not being sure if a 46 is going to be too large..?

Rise IV - Winter Barefoot Boots

Store owner replied: Hi there, thank you for your detailed feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the sizing inconsistency and the back-and-forth this has caused. We completely understand the frustration of finding the right fit, especially when it differs from your usual Saguaro size. You’re right to point out that different styles—even within the same brand—can vary based on the last (the shoe's mold) and materials. Your experience helps us and others better navigate sizing for this particular boot. To make sure your next pair is just right, we’d be happy to arrange one more free exchange​ for you. If you can provide your foot length in centimeters, we can also cross-check the measurements to confirm whether the 46 would be the best match, taking the guesswork out of it. A member of our customer service team will contact you shortly via email to assist with the exchange and provide a prepaid return label. We’ll cover all shipping costs, and we’ll make the process as smooth as possible for you. We’re sorry again for the inconvenience, and we really appreciate your patience. Your note about the sizing difference has also been passed to our product team for their reference in future sizing guidance. We’ll be in touch soon to get this sorted.

The back off my feet keep scratching the shoes

Rise IV - Winter Barefoot Boots

Store owner replied: Hello, Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are very sorry to hear that your heels are rubbing against the shoes—that sounds very uncomfortable, and we appreciate you letting us know the specific issue. This rubbing can sometimes occur when the collar (the back of the shoe) is stiff or its shape doesn't perfectly match the contours of your heel, especially when wearing them for the first time. This is not the experience we want you to have. If this makes the shoes difficult to wear or uncomfortable, please feel free to contact our customer support team. We are happy to provide solutions, whether it's an exchange, a return, or further guidance. Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to improve, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.

I checked the website several times looking for something waterproof. Some reason I never saw these until the last minute and ordered them imediately. They're nice and warm and really waterproof! Perfect for next winter! And the rest of the melting season too. Thank goodness, and goodbye plantar's fasciitis.
