Why choose Groove

Detailed overview

It's easy to fall in love with its minimalist design and groovy vibes. ZuZu Groove is perfect for walking, dancing, and running in ALL terrains, while providing great comfort for short or extended daily walks.

Featuring a 10mm thick triple-layered sole made from natural rubber, anti-bacterial EVA midsole, and a moisture-wicking vegan leather footbed. ZuZu Groove delivers a barefoot experience with a soft feel and a more natural look.

It's fair to say that it's our favorite sandal, and for good reason. It's beautiful, versatile, and incredibly comfortable, making it perfect for any occasion. Whether you're strolling through the city, hiking a mountain trail, or just enjoying a day at the beach, ZuZu Groove will keep your feet strong and free.

ZuZu Groove - ZuZu Barefoot

Live (like) Barefoot

Barefoot begginers

If this is your first time trying minimalist footwear, you simply can't go wrong with ZuZu Groove.

Transitioning to barefoot walking (or running) requires adaptation of your foot muscles and soles. As these muscles get stronger and adjust to their natural state, you will find that walking in minimalist shoes feels more natural and comfortable than anything else.

The ZuZu Groove model provides an excellent balance between ground feel and comfort, with improved shock absorption and mild cushioning. You'll enjoy all the benefits of barefoot-like footwear while also keeping your feet protected when moving on rugged terrain and stepping on sharp rocks.

Everyday use

City streets are often paved with dense materials like asphalt, concrete, and bricks, which can feel uncomfortable and unnatural underfoot when walked on for long periods.

However, with the extra cushioning layer attached to the flexible sole and the additional soft vegan leather footbed, ZuZu Groove provides superior comfort, making walking in the city a natural, minimalist, and comfortable experience.

Run with your ZuZu sandals

Barefoot running

When it comes to barefoot running on both paved and natural roads and trails, the Groove model is our favorite, providing a comfortable and natural feel for your feet while staying agile.

Thanks to the high-quality materials, the sandals provide better shock absorption and protection than any thinner minimalist sandals with a 3-7 mm sole. This advantage is particularly beneficial for long-distance running, as the balanced shock absorption reduces the load on your feet, minimizing the risk of muscle pain and injury.

Ground feel

An important element of barefoot shoe design is to enable natural foot movement without unnecessary assistance or support.

The ZuZu Groove model strikes a balance between ground feel, comfort, and softness. While not as minimalist as the ZuZu Flow model, the Groove's added cushioning can be an advantage when moving on hard surfaces.

The sandals are designed to become an extension of your foot, thanks to their flexible materials that mold to the arch of your foot over time.

Although ZuZu Groove is a great choice for those who prioritize ground feel, we also recommend considering the ZuZu Flow model for a closer-to-earth look and feel.

ZuZu Groove - ZuZu Barefoot

Moisture wicking and anti-bacterial magic

Fresh feet

After a long day of roaming around the city jungle (or a real jungle), crossing the finish line of a trail marathon, or simply surviving a hot and humid summer day, the advantages of ZuZu Groove shine.

The unique vegan leather of the sandal's footbed features both anti-bacterial and moisture-wicking properties, which help your feet stay well-ventilated and combat unpleasant odors.

In addition, the midsole also contains an antibacterial component designed to reduce and prevent the development of unpleasant odors that may arise from the accumulation of sweat and dirt.

Thanks to these properties, the ZuZu Groove model is one of the best smelling sandals out there, keeping your feet fresh and free,

Water performance

Here is where ZuZu Groove falls short of our other models. The soft and smooth vegan leather footbed performs exceptionally well with sweaty feet (due to its moisture-wicking properties), but once getting completely soaked, it can become somewhat slippery.

In conclusion, if you frequently wear your sandals in wet conditions, we recommend considering other options such as ZuZu Flow. That being said, we find that for most people a good tightening of the straps when soaked removes most of the slippiness.

LOVE IT!

Extremely comfortable and amazing customer service. The only "downside" is that customs can cost quite a bit, which has nothing to do with the company itself. These guys are great and I will be buying here again.

Can't wait for summer

I just love it. I can't stop pacing, jumping, running, dancing...
The shipment went without a single problem and it was surprisingly fast. The wrapping suits this lifstyle quite well, I loved that too. Simple, practical, nothing fancy.
Although an available leather strap would've made this whole experience even more perfect:) Can't wait for them to get back in stock.
