Skinners 2.0 Marine barefoot sock shoes are light, flexible and zero drop, with room for toes. They suit walking, sport, water activities and travel.

SKINNERS 2.0 Marine

The minimalist shape of the Skinners 2.0 combines the comfort of socks with the protection of shoes. With a perforated insole, a long-life polymer sole and functional fibres, they are designed to keep up with you on every adventure. They are made from the finest Italian fibres and abrasion-resistant Swedish polymers, using a unique zero-waste technology in the heart of Europe.

This is a product that adapts to your body, activates every muscle and tendon and lets your feet do their job. In short, it lets you move without restriction. Thanks to their compact size and "second skin" feel, Skinners are ideal shoes for sport (short runs, exercise, yoga, water sports) and work just as well as a spare pair of shoes (travel, camping, hiking, cycling).

• unisex sock shoes
• made in the Czech Republic
• seasons: spring, summer, autumn

TESTED BY TRAVELLERS

"We use our Skinners for sport and walking in nature, but above all on our travels. They are light, pack down perfectly and suit practically anywhere. We completed our latest trip with only our Skinners, wearing them in forests, on the beach, in the sea and even on cave hikes. It was a pleasant surprise how easily they can be washed, for example after walking through mud."

USES FOR SOCK SHOES

• Everyday walking and hiking: Stretch out and activate your feet! Sock shoes adapt to your body, activate every muscle and tendon and let your feet do their job.
• Running: Enrich your training (soft ground recommended) by thoroughly activating all the muscles and tendons in your feet. One run in Skinners will give you a whole new understanding of foot mechanics.
• Water sports: The anti-slip, cut-resistant soles give you a perfect grip, even in wet conditions, and help keep your feet safe even near sharp coral.
• Exercise and strength training: Seamless sock shoes with zero permeability are ideal for indoor use and support a natural posture during squats, deadlifts and other exercises.
• Travel: A ten-hour flight or bus journey can be demanding for your feet, trapped in shoes simply because you cannot take them off due to a cold, dirty floor or unpleasant odour. Try Skinners instead!
