Step 1 of 13
Question 01 / 13
Who are you finding shoes for?
This helps us personalise the language and recommendations throughout.
🙋
Myself
I'm finding shoes for my own feet.
🎁
Someone Else
I'm helping find shoes for another person.
Question 02 / 13
Where are you based?
We use this to show you nearby stores and online shops that ship to you — so you can try shoes on or avoid import fees.
Question 02 / 13
What is your sex?
Men's and women's shoes are built on different lasts — the internal foot form — which directly affects fit, not just sizing.
♂️
Male
♀️
Female
Question 03 / 13
What is your age range?
Children's feet are structurally different and need different support. Flexibility and natural toe splay are especially important in growing feet.
🧑
Adult
18 years and over
🧒
Big Kid / Teen
Approx. 8–17 years. Feet are still developing — wide toe box and flexibility are key.
👦
Younger Kid
Approx. 3–7 years. Soft, flexible soles are essential — avoid rigid or structured shoes.
👶
Toddler / Baby
Under 3 years. Barefoot is best — shoes should only protect, never restrict movement.
Question 04 / 13
How would you describe your foot width?
If standard shoes feel tight across the ball of the foot, you likely need a wider fit. If they feel loose or sloppy, a narrower last may suit you better.
➖
Slim / Narrow
Standard shoes feel loose or sloppy around the midfoot.
👟
Medium / Standard
Most shoes fit well without feeling tight or loose.
↔️
Wide Fit
Standard shoes feel tight across the toes or ball of foot.
⬅️➡️
Extra Wide
Even wide-fit shoes feel tight. You need significant toe box room.
Question 05 / 13
What is your arch type?
Try the wet test — wet your foot, stand on paper with your full weight, lift off and look at the print. Use the guide below to identify your arch type.
📸 Wet your foot, step on paper and compare your print to the guide above
⬇️
Low / Flat Arch
Full sole visible. Most of your midfoot is on the ground. May roll inward.
↕️
Medium / Neutral
About half your midfoot contacts the ground. The most common arch type.
⬆️
High Arch
Very little midfoot on the ground, clear gap visible. May roll outward.
🤔
I'm Not Sure
We'll recommend versatile, all-arch footwear with broad support.
Question 06 / 13
Let's talk about your foot health
Being honest here leads to much better recommendations. Footwear plays a significant role in managing and preventing foot pain.
Are you currently experiencing any foot or lower limb pain?
😣
Yes
✅
No
⚠️
We can help with this
The right footwear makes a real difference — we'll prioritise shoes suited to your condition. If your pain has lasted more than 30 days, we'd strongly recommend an online consultation so we can assess what's actually going on and give you a personalised plan.

✅
Great to hear. We'll focus on performance, comfort and preventive support — footwear that keeps your feet healthy long-term.
Do you have any history of foot pain or lower limb injury?
😣
Yes
✅
No
📋
History noted. Previous injuries can affect gait and load distribution long-term. We'll factor this in by recommending shoes with appropriate protective features — even if you're currently pain-free.
💪
Good foundation. No injury history gives us more flexibility in matching you with performance-focused footwear.
Question 07 / 13
Do you use orthotics or custom insoles?
If you use insoles, the shoe needs sufficient internal depth and volume to accommodate them without compressing the foot.
👨⚕️
Yes — Custom Orthotics
Prescribed by a clinician. Requires a roomy, high-volume shoe with removable insole.
🏪
Yes — Over-the-Counter
Shop-bought arch support or cushioning inserts.
🦶
No — Stock Insole Only
I use the insole that comes with the shoe.
💡
Did you know? Orthotics should be short-term, not a lifelong solution
Orthotics can be valuable during recovery, but long-term reliance can weaken the intrinsic muscles of the foot. Many people find they can reduce or eliminate their need for orthotics through targeted foot strengthening exercises — and the right footwear is the first step.
Want help reducing your reliance on orthotics?
Our foot health specialists can build you a personalised strengthening programme. Use code FOOTPAIN30 for 30% off your first consultation.

🦺

Question 09 / 13
How much sole thickness do you prefer?
Thinner soles promote natural proprioception and muscle engagement. Thicker soles offer more cushioning and impact protection.
🦶
Ultra Thin
≤5mm — total barefoot feel, maximum ground connection.
📏
Thin
6–8mm — great ground feel with light protection underfoot.
🪨
Medium
9–14mm — balanced feel, good for longer days or hard surfaces.
☁️
Cushioned
15mm+ — maximum comfort. Ideal for pain, high mileage or transition.
🤷
Not Important
We'll match based on your other answers.
Question 10 / 13
What features matter most to you?
Tick everything that's important — these act as priority filters on top of your foot profile.
Select all that apply
⬅️➡️

Natural toe splay — important for bunions, wide feet and barefoot transition.
🌀

🪶

Question 11 / 13
How long have you been wearing barefoot or minimal shoes?
This helps us recommend the right transition point. Going too minimal too soon is the most common mistake — we want your feet to love the change.
🐣
Brand New
I currently wear conventional shoes and I am just starting to explore.
🚶
Some Experience
I have tried minimal shoes and my feet are adjusting well.
🦶
Fully Transitioned
Barefoot shoes are my everyday — I am comfortable in very thin soles.
