A spring in your step

HandsFree Labs®️ technology: Cage®

Hasta la vista, heel-crushing! No wiggling, no bending down, and no re-tying, either. Once you step in and the heel springs back, you’ll never want to put on any other shoe again—seriously. Style + convenience? Yes, please!

Buh-bye, sweaty feet

4-way stretch knit

The top of your foot deserves comfort too. Breathable knit fabric provides just the right amount of air flow to keep your feet comfy and cool all day long. Remember sticking your feet out the car window as a kid? It’s kinda like that.

Ultra cushy & oh, so comfy

Rabbit Foam® outsole

Our proprietary (and ridiculously comfy) Rabbit Foam® outsoles are the perfect blend of bounce-back and durability so you can be on your feet all day long. What does it feel like? Imagine a thousand angels massaging your feet.

Get a grip

Rubber heel/toe traction

This shoe is all grip and no slip. Our built-in rubber traction pods cover the entire toe and heel areas of the shoe. Perfect for going from lounging around the house to deftly avoiding conversations with the in-laws. Hey rubber, meet road.

New favorite shoes!

These are the more comfortable shoes I’ve ever purchased! I love how easy they are to step into and I now weat them almost every day. They’re definitely more of a day-to-day shoe and good for walking around, but don’t seem like they would be good for gym wear or intense exercise.

They are definitely different

I have 7 pairs over the last 2 years. All Athens. I ordered a pair of white a couple weeks ago and there is some vertical stitching under the tongue and it irritates the top of my foot. Thought a good washing would help but they still irritate. (Redness) my old ones are all great. I don’t wear socks with these, that’s why I like them so much.
