Size & Fit

PaperKrane shoes fit differently than conventional footwear - our barefoot design means a wider toe box and more natural foot shape.

But we've found that most customers find PK shoes fit true to size.

Shoe Care & Cleaning

WATERPROOF & PROTECT YOUR PKs -do this first, before you even wear them!

Apply a fabric or vegan-leather appropriate waterproof protector before first wear and reapply regularly
We recommend KIWI Sneaker Protector as a great all-purpose option, or Collonil Organic Cream for vegan leather styles
This one step makes a real difference to how long they look and last, don't skip it!

Clean

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap for everyday marks
For a deeper clean, hand wash gently in cold water with mild detergent and air dry completely

CAUTION: Avoid machine washing, dryers, and harsh chemicals.

Why Go Barefoot

Most shoes are built for looks. PKs are built for feet.

Conventional shoes squeeze, elevate, and restrict, quietly working against the natural mechanics your feet were designed for. Whether you're a growing kid or a full-grown human who's spent decades in the wrong shoes, the damage is the same. PKs get out of the way and let feet be feet.

Every PK is built on our Four F's:

Flat: Zero-drop sole keeps your whole body in natural alignment. No heel elevation, no knock-on effect for your knees, hips, or back.
Foot-shaped: Wide toe box lets toes spread, splay, and grip the way nature intended. No squishing, no overlap, no complaints.
Flexible: The sole bends with your foot so your muscles actually have to work. Stronger feet, better balance, less pain over time.
Feather-light: Less shoe means more feel. More feel means better movement, all day long.
