Ballop Corso Mid Cut Zero Drop Minimalist Barefoot Shoes - Black
Brand: Ballop
Cooler days need not mean switching to a stiff, heavy shoe. The Ballop Corso Mid Cut in black pairs a breathable wool-blend upper with a flexible rubber sole and extra coverage around the ankle. It is designed for everyday wear and light outdoor walks.
Flexible underfoot, with a choice of feelThe flexible BF1 sole has a zero-drop design, with no raised heel. Its solid rubber outsole is approximately 4 mm thick and has a fine hexagonal tread. That measurement describes the outsole, not the total thickness beneath your foot.
Two interchangeable insoles let you choose between light cushioning from the Reflexo-Foam insole and a more direct feel from the flat minimalist insole. Ballop does not publish a separate heel-to-toe measurement for the Reflexo-Foam option.
Coverage for cooler daysThe wool-blend upper provides warmth while remaining breathable. A softly padded collar, reinforced heel and adjustable laces help you adjust the fit; the raised rubber toe cap adds protection at the front.

Barefoot shoe sizing works differently from standard high-street brands. Measuring your feet in centimetres is the essential first step to getting the right fit.
The Wall & Paper Method
A simple 5-step process you can do at home with just a piece of paper, a pencil, and a ruler.
Room to Move
Adults need 0.8–1.2cm of space; kids need 0.8–1.5cm of growing room beyond their foot length.
Width Matters
Barefoot shoes have wide toe boxes, but width fitting is just as important as length for comfort.
Customer Reviews
Great!
Really cool and super comfy!
Very comfortable, I wasn't sure I would like the feeling of them but I don't notice them on and love the fact that they are not too tight around the top either.
Excellent customer service, swift dispatch and delivery, highly recommended, will definitely buy from them again. Thank you.
Lovely socks and brilliant customer service. Thank you!
Fast delivery
My daughter loves them
Perfect
Super comfortable, I have sensory issues and socks have long been a struggle - I plan to switch over to these completely
Lovely socks… I’m now a total convert to toe socks, they are so comfortable! These are great for summer in trainers, breathable and just the right height. I’m about to buy more.
Helpful friendly and easy
Great socks, comfortable and not restrictive on the toes.
So comfortable,I need more!
Great customer service and so friendly. If you have a problem they are quick to sort it out with ease. Amazing people. Love you all. Thanks for bringing this shop to life. Dan is amazing.
They are great quality and so comfy. My daughter HATES mainstream socks because of the bar across the toe section but absolutely LOVES these. Thank you so much.

FAQs
How should I choose my Corso Mid Cut size?
Powered by the BarefootBrit Fit System™. Enter your actual foot length in the size tool without adding extra room. It uses internal shoe measurements verified by the BarefootBrit Shop team and adds adult comfort room once. Do not automatically size up again after using the calculator.
See how to measure both feet. Width and foot volume also affect fit.
Which insoles are included?
Each pair includes a Reflexo-Foam insole for light cushioning and a flat minimalist insole for a more direct feel. They are interchangeable. Try the fit with the insole and socks you plan to wear.
Is the Corso Mid Cut zero drop?
Ballop describes the Corso Mid Cut as zero drop, with no raised heel in its sole design. A flat minimalist insole is included. Ballop does not publish a separate heel-to-toe measurement for the alternative Reflexo-Foam insole.
Is it waterproof or vegan?
The wool-blend upper means this model is not vegan. Ballop does not publish a waterproof or water-resistance rating for the Corso Mid Cut, so it should not be relied on as waterproof footwear.
Does the 4 mm measurement include the insole?
No. Ballop describes the rubber outsole as approximately 4 mm thick. This is not a published total stack height; the complete underfoot thickness with either insole has not been confirmed.
