Notace

Barefoot brand from United States.

Notace is a Boulder, Colorado brand making zero drop, foot-shaped shoes for women and men, including trail and hiking shoes, a road running shoe and court shoes for tennis, pickleball and padel. They have a roomy toe box and a lightly cushioned sole, so they sit somewhere between a true barefoot shoe and a conventional one. I'd say they suit anyone who wants space for their toes with a bit of protection underfoot.

Specialities: women, men, trail, running, zero drop

How Notace fits

sloped toe box, wide width, mixed volume

Notace's own guides say true to size for men and half a size up for women. Reviewers say the Michi can run short and the Yama a touch long, so I'd check the size chart. Roomy toes, snugger heel and midfoot.
