DESCRIPTION
Built to let your feet walk the walk, our minimalist BARE-XF™ V2 gives you that close to the ground/barefoot feel when working out. Whether lifting, functional fitness, running or walking, the BARE-XF™ offers a perfect blend of freedom and protection – less shoe, more you.
Featuring improvements to its upper and ROPE-TEC™ MET-CRADLE, the BARE-XF™ V2 builds on the success of its predecessor. The upgraded ROPE-TEC™ MET-CRADLE gives increased protection from rope friction, increasing the shoe’s durability. As well as this, the improved MET-CRADLE gives a better lock down, providing that secure feeling in the heel and the midfoot. On the upper KPU overlays replace the 3D overlays from the first generation BARE-XF™, again enhancing the protection and durability of the shoe. Our proprietary INOV8 rubber balances high grip with longevity, allowing you to lift and run in complete confidence.
With no midsole whatsoever, you’ll feel connected to the ground. Our new NATURALFIT™ enhances this natural feel too, with a wide toe box that allows your toes to splay and your feet to feel free. The ultimate in lightweight, minimalist protection, the BARE-XF™ V2 is the shoe that lets you train as if barefoot, working with your natural movement like it’s not there at all.

Shoe Fit Scale
We have graded the fit of all our shoes from 1 to 5 to make it easy for you to find the perfect fitting shoe. All our shoes are designed with Met-Cradle technology to lock down the mid-foot for a stable hold. Where they differ is in the toe box. Grade 1 represents our closest, most precise fit. At the other end of the scale, Grade 5 has the widest fitting toe box.
We have meticulously studied the foot and its function during the gait cycle and also the interaction between the foot and the terrain. We have used this knowledge to develop our fitting scale. For technical footwear, a good fit is essential to enhance your performance.
The lower the number on our scale, the narrower the fit, which ensures minimal internal movement of the foot when running fast on technical terrain. Shoes with the higher numbers on our scale will suit athletes with a wider foot and those wanting that extra comfort in the toe box. This wider toe box allows the toes to splay for increased stability when lifting heavy weights. It's also perfect for longer runs and races when toes begin to swell.
As a rough guide, Grade 1 represents an industry B fit, while Grade 5 equates to a 2E fit in the forefoot.
