MINIMALIST FOOTWEAR,
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
The Ursus SHTG1 by Bearfoot is a minimalist barefoot shoe crafted for those who demand both versatility and performance. Perfect for strength training, whether it’s powerlifting, strongman, or CrossFit, it seamlessly transitions from the gym to everyday life as a comfortable, casual shoe thanks to its classic, timeless high-top look. Featuring a flexible, zero-drop sole and a wide toe box, the Ursus allows for natural foot movement, optimal toe splay, and superior ground feel, helping you build strength, stability, and balance whether you’re lifting heavy, tackling dynamic workouts, or just going about your day. Crafted from durable suede leather that molds to your foot over time, this shoe offers minimal cushioning for maximum sensory feedback and is built with an extra-wide width to accommodate all foot shapes.
Peer-reviewed studies show that consistent use of minimalist footwear is associated with significant improvements in foot strength and intrinsic muscle development compared to conventional shoes.*

I like it the tip has me worried it looks like the glue is coming off but it’s still together… I work in them all day
So far so good. My first flat shoe. The black suede looks fabulous
Pretty awesome so far.
This is for our grandson-in-law and is the second pair we have purchased for him. We has worn a hole in the sole of the last ones we bought him a few years ago, because he wears the shoes almost evey day for work. He is a personal strength trainer.
I've been rocking these on and off for the last 2 years. All in all, they're an amazing shoe. I wear them with socks of average thickness and they're true to size. So comfy you forget you've got anything on, and the quality is top notch; I've worn these in rough conditions on many a hike and they're not showing any signs of wear and tear really. I recommend them to anyone looking for a minimalist shoe. Really wish there was a white suede high top!
Favorite lifting shoes
Love The High Tops, Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a flat shoe.
Been wearing these consistently almost every day for over a year now, and they’ve been a dream to wear! Takes a little time to get used to at first, but afterwards, I can’t go back to wearing ordinary shoes. It’s helped my feet, posture, and helped to relieve tightness on my hips. Will definitely be buying more in the future.
These things are so comfortable. Super simple design and quality materials. I usually rotate between several shoes/boots throughout the week but i haven’t wanted to wear anything else since I got these. They look a little funny (I’ve had people ask me if I was wearing wrestling shoes, boxing shoes, or even house slippers lol) but they’re so great I don’t care.
Great shoes!
The closet thing to wearing nothing.
Awesome shoes, love them
Really comfortable and amazing performance shoes. 10/10

I will only wear bearfoot! These have been my go to gym shoes for years now. I’m on my third pair and they are the only shoes I’ll consider anymore. The wide two box and minimalist approach is perfect. My feet have stengthened. And my foot, knee and back pain went away after I made the initial switch. Game changer!
Easily the best lifting shoe I’ve ever used. Incredibly comfortable and supportive. Highly recommend getting a pair!
The wait was worth it
The Bearfoot Suede Black Pioneer is a great training shoe! It has been fantastic to work out in over the past couple of weeks, providing solid support and comfort. I highly recommend it to others. I originally bought a half size up, which still works without my feet slipping, but next time, I’d go with my true size for the best fit.
Extremely lightweight, comfortable, perfect fit, gives my toes space to spread comfortably. Very happy with my purchase, can't wait to get a royal bloodline pair.
Frigging dope
I got these shoes to have more connection to the ground when doing powerlifting. My gym doesn’t allow us to not wear shoes. This is a perfect solution. I’m feeling like getting the work boots now!
Amazing shoes. I may have needed a 7, but 7.5 gives me a bit of extra space
They are for my Partner and she has worn them twice. So far so good!
I love this shoes
Great pair of shoes! I love the leather and the look. I have a 6E foot width so every shoe could be a bit wider, however, these are up there as one of my favorite shoes.
Very pretty shoes. I also like that you can purchase insurance from bearfoot on your shoe. And it’s only $4. And it covers repairing shoes and if unable to repair they will replace it. Never had a shoe company offer this before.
I started just wearing these for the gym, then for outdoor walking. Today I never made the gym I was so busy driving and running around different errands I spent the entire day wearing these 8+ hours. After the amount of hours my best sneakers would still have me with achy and sore feet. My feet felt just like they did in the morning. I also noticed no lower back pain. I was actually shocked! I came back to write a review and noticed the Gen-2 low-tops and just pre-ordered a pair! If they had a pair work appropriate I would buy them in a heartbeat!
My second pair like this.
The simple moccasin style is fantastic, they feel durable, the toe box is really wide, and they fit well around the ankle so you don’t have to tie them tight. Also, I walked around with them on in temps are 20deg with thin socks and my feet stayed pretty warm which is a great plus.
Second set I've owned, absolutely love them 👍
Instantly notice the way your feet and body feel.
I bought the high tops to train with and I have a pair of (3 yrld) low tops that I'm wanting to use for everyday tasks because I love how comfy they are.
I now own 3 pair. I do love them. Only down side will be this winter, I notice the cold ground goes right through.
Very Nice quality and comfortable
These are my second pair, and I love them even more! Super comfortable, nice wide toe box so my feet don't feel smashed, and I wear them daily as well as to the gym!
Never thought i woukd like suede so much! Feel very stylish walking down the street
These are the best shoes ever! I’ve been recommending them to everybody, I absolutely love them. I’ve always worn minimalist shoes but most look a little strange to say the least. These look like cool skate shoes but feel like I’m wearing moccasins, which is exactly what I’ve been looking for. They fit snug and the leather quickly molded to the natural shape of my foot. The sole is the perfect thickness where you can feel the ground beneath you better than wearing normal skate shoes, but not too thin to the point where anything on the ground can hurt your foot. As for the cons of this shoe; the tread could be a little more aggressive as it tends to slip on certain surfaces. The breathability is not the best, my feet get very hot and sweaty wearing these for longer periods of time. However, this hasn’t proved to be too problematic yet since the fact that they’re mainly leather means they haven’t developed an odor. The most unfortunate of all is that a couple of the steel rings in the laces have already popped out after only a couple weeks of use. I haven’t even used them for any lifting or exercise yet, as I planned on using my first pair as casual wear shoes and they’re just so awesome that I wanted to take care of them and have them last for a while. I think it happened due to me tying my laces too tight which stretched out the leather and caused them to come loose. That was a little disappointing for 130 dollars, but I still love them and will wear them til they fall apart. I was thinking of using these for my gym shoes now and getting the boots to wear if they’re a bit more sturdy, but I’m worried about something similar maybe happening. Overall, I’m in love with the concept of the shoe. It’s the shoe I’ve always wanted, but I really wish they were built a little better because I wanted them to last.
Best shoe ever
Once I got through a lot of the styles being sold out in my size, and got to a style that I liked that still had my size left, it went very smooth after that. The site had said that the size I ordered was on reserve, I emailed customer service, told them that the site initially said it was available until I ordered, and they very quickly double-checked by the next morning told me they had it in stock and shipped it right away. Quality customer service reaction to my email, cannot complain one bit. Shoes arrived quickly, and they are top quality.
