About this episode

Once a niche product for runners, footwear that makes you feel like you’re not wearing any is now crossing into the mainstream. We’ll hear from fans chasing everyday health benefits as well as from brands in the UK, India and US. And we’ll ask whether the barefoot movement is here to stay… Produced and presented by Helen Ledwick (Image: Barefoot shoes on display at a 'try on' event in Birmingham, UK)
