Freet York 3

The Freet York 3 takes one of our most popular barefoot shoes and makes it even better. Effortlessly combining timeless style with outstanding barefoot comfort, York is the kind of shoe that works just as well for everyday wear as it does for smarter occasions.

Now updated with premium full-grain leather, an improved heel lining and tongue, and a durable stitched UrbanGrip outsole, the York 3 feels refined while retaining everything we love about this incredibly versatile shoe.

The premium leather softens beautifully over time, moulding to your feet and developing character with wear. It's also Leather Working Group Gold certified, reflecting high standards in responsible leather production.

Whether you're heading to work, dressing for a smarter occasion or simply want an everyday shoe that doesn't look obviously "barefoot", the York 3 is a fantastic option. Its classic styling means you don't have to sacrifice appearance for natural movement and all-day comfort.

Why we love the Freet York 3:

• One of our favourite smart barefoot shoes

• Premium full-grain leather upper

• Improved heel lining and tongue for greater comfort

• Durable, sidewall-stitched UrbanGrip outsole

• Smart enough for work and formal occasions, comfortable enough for everyday wear

• Wide, foot-shaped toe box with zero drop and excellent flexibility

• Water-resistant leather upper when regularly treated
  

If you're looking for one barefoot shoe that can take you from everyday wear to work and smarter occasions, the York 3 is hard to beat.
