Product description

Essential Light Brown combines the anatomical Realfoot shape with the versatile look of a classic leather low shoe. The roomy toe box provides plenty of space for your foot, and the flexible CityGrip outsole makes everyday walking on hard urban surfaces more comfortable. The light brown suede leather design is easy to pair with other items and is suitable for work, running errands, and leisure.

  • CityGrip Outsole – A 5-mm flexible outsole (3 mm base + 2 mm tread) designed primarily for asphalt, pavement, and other hard surfaces. It offers a more comfortable stride while maintaining the foot’s natural movement.
  • Realfoot's anatomical shape—with its distinctive wide toe box—provides ample space for all five toes, including the little toe. The toes can spread out freely and actively engage while walking.
  • Removable STANDARD 2.0 Insole – combines flexibility with gentle shock absorption to make walking on hard urban surfaces more comfortable.
  • An elegant leather design—the suede leather gives the Essential the look of a versatile urban low shoe that you can wear practically every day.
  • Light Brown – a warm, light brown shade that pairs easily with jeans, chinos, and other casual outfits.

The added length of big toe is a big win. Sadly they felt much tighter. (Or leather is tougher) Than city jungle. Also an annoying piece of leather is on the inside pushing on the foot.

I would add 2 sizes.

Looks great and good toe space.

Porovnávám se CITY JUNGLE. Pocitově se u Essential jedná o tvrdší botu. Uvidím časem, zda se kůže změkčí. Boty od Realfoot nosím od roku 2023 (tenisky, city jungle a farmářky) a poprvé, za celou tu dobu, se mi u tohoto modelu stalo, že se mi na patě vytvořil puchýř. Nechci tím říci, že se jedná o špatné boty - TO URČITĚ NE! I přes tohle se jedná o perfektní boty s bezkonkurenčním prostorem pro prsty a pohodlným nášlapem. Jsem rád, že značka funguje dále. Díky investorům za to! :-)
