Our Story
This is who we are and what we stand for
Our Vision
At GoBarefoot, we believe that childhood should be full of
freedom and movement. Every step a child takes is
crucial, and looking after their feet is key. As parents
ourselves, we envision to create a warm and supportive
community where families feel confident in choosing
what’s right for their kids.
Our Mission
We focus on quality and sustainability, always thinking
about the future. Our mission goes beyond just selling
shoes: it’s about making a difference in wellbeing with our
lifestyle and enjoying our work, because there’s nothing
better than wiggling our toes with joy!

Eva
After several years of working on different E-commerce projects, in 2012 I decided to retrain as a postnatal fitness trainer and a health coach working with mums.
While being on a maternity leave with my two children I learned back in Slovakia (where I come from) about the benefits of kids walking barefoot or in barefoot shoes. I fell in love with this approach and I decided to encourage more parents in UAE and the whole GCC to GoBarefoot too.
Martina
I have been living in UAE with my family since 2013 and I’m a mum of two. Throughout the years being based here I have started a successful photography business.
I was always passionate about new healthy trends for kids and nice designs. After my second child was born I completely fell in love with the barefoot shoes for children and decided to co-found the GoBarefoot.ae with Eva.
