MADE TO FEEL PROJECT

THE MADE TO FEEL PROJECT 

We’ve been working on understanding the science of barefoot for a while and we’d like to help more people enjoy the journey back to healthy feet and natural sensory movement. 

So, this summer we set ourselves a challenge. Could we capture the extra feeling you get from ‘going barefoot’ in an image??  We used real sensory data from the feet, brain and environment to bring to life the experience of moving and feeling barefoot into the image. To represent the unseen but very real sensory experience of moving in a more connected way. And the Made To Feel Project was born.

OUR MOTIVATION

"Comfortable people do not become revolutionaries" - Mos Def

In a world obsessed with ease and comfort we’ve lost the feeling and sensation that our bodies and brains are craving through our feet. Each and every one of us has thousands upon thousands of nerve endings in our feet that are aching to be used. Aching to connect our feet to our brain and make the feeling of moving through the world a more vivid sensory experience.

Comfortable people, they’ve lost the ability to feel.
Their sensations are smothered.
They feel no ground beneath their feet.
No signals from their path.
They won’t become revolutionaries.
In a world obsessed with ease and comfort:
Reject the cushioned life.
Reject the cushioned sole.
And experience a world full of feeling.
Your feet are made to feel.
You are made to feel.
