What is grounding?
Grounding means making an electrical connection between your body and the Earth. The Joro has a pure copper plug through its leather sole, creating a conductive path when you stand or walk on a conductive ground surface.
The wide toe box, zero-drop heel, and flexible sole let your feet move naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should the Joro fit?
Fits true to size (no socks).
Use “What's my size?” and the sizing guidance above to help choose your fit.
What is the sole made from?
The sole is natural water buffalo leather, with a pure copper grounding plug. It is flexible and zero drop, keeping the heel and forefoot level.
How does the copper grounding plug work?
The copper plug runs through the sole, providing a conductive path between your foot and a conductive surface such as soil or grass. Contact with the ground matters; insulating surfaces interrupt that path.
How do I care for my pair?
Brush away dry dirt gently and let the pair air dry away from direct heat. Avoid soaking or machine washing. Use care products suited to the leather finish; smooth-leather conditioners can change the look of suede or nubuck.

Very satisfied with their return policy. We love the shoes. We plan on getting several more.
Love to hear it! The new Rana flip flops are great. You'll love whichever pairs you add next! Enjoy.

These little grounding boots are very beautifully made with top quality materials and craftsmanship in every way. You can feel the grounding difference! I love this style so much I bought two colors! :)

I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes. I have had some trouble breaking these in like they are just slightly too small. I have some brios the same size and they fit great. I wish I had noticed sooner they were too snug and returned them.
G
Super comfy!!

I am so excited for these shoes. I recently received them, so I can't give an extended experience with them. They are exactly what they said they are as far as craftsmanship and quality. I anticipate they will be the right kind of shoe for my lifestyle and needs.
E
Had a small problem with the pair I originally ordered but they quickly replied and made it right. They went above and beyond and I’m very happy to support a company that stands by their product. They look great too!

All humans should be wearing shoes like this when you're not barefoot! Foot health is vital for living your best life and these are the absolute best shoes and slippers I've personally ever owned and wish I'd have been wearing them years ago! I highly recommend for your health and well being getting yourself a couple pairs and always get your barefoot grounding in on good natural surfaces daily! Health is wealth and Go RHIZAL for being apart of the Health Movement that's catching Fire right now and helping people get their lives back after decades of being trapped in foot prisons that are all the shoes we've been taught to wear since youth! These will actually help you get that youth back and give your feet the happy feet feeling they've been deprived of for way too long! Oh, and get slippers with sheep's skin inside! Those will be your Best Friend and I'm not exaggerating, getting out of bed having them to slip into as I walk downstairs to make my morning coffee has added great joy to my life!♥️

Own loads of high end designer shoes which are no doubt comfortable, but these are different. Highly comfortable and feel very natural to walk in. Would definitely recommend 👍

There's room for improvement.
Pros:
- I really like the way the shoes look. They got the aesthetic right.
Cons:
- Only the copper piece is conductive. The insole and the sole are not conductive. I verified with a multi meter.
- The outsole has absolutely no grip. To get an idea of how tractionless they are, when I sit in an office chair I cannot move the chair by pushing against the floor with my feet. If the sole isnt conductive then why didnt they just choose a material that can actually grip?
- They make noise. The sole material is kind of hard and makes a noticeable clapping noise with the ground.
For $190 shoes the cons surprised me. Overall these shoes are not bad, some grounding is better than nothing, but the design shortcomings leave me wanting something better.

Shoestring broke on first tie up. Other than this, these are amazing.
J
These shoes fit very well and they work amazing
M
It took a while to deliver, however they suppose to be made per order, so it's understandable. The shoes themselves look and feel incredible, absolutely stunning !! The only concern is how long they're gonna last, but they seem to be very well made. They were not cheap, but are definitely worth the price.

When I first got these shoes the laces immediately broke and I was super disappointed. Thankfully customer service reached out and sent me new laces right away. The new laces work great and I love the shoes, they seem to be very high quality.
B
The very first time I put these shoes on the laces snapped on BOTH OF THEM with barely any pressure. Thankfully I had other laces I could use and the shoes are great, but I was shocked at the fragility of the leather laces.
R
Great for everything including hiking
T
Tried these on as soon as I got them. When tying the right one, the lace broke! I contacted Rhizal and they started they would send replacements right away. This was quite surprising and helpful. The shoes are absolutely outstanding! The color, fabulous. The fit, comfortable. No heel slip and plenty of room for my toes to splay. Will be wearing these when I'm not wearing my other pair of Rhizal loafers!

These shoes look great, feel great, but I would not recommend for wet winter weather… The salt has already destroyed them, water absorbs quite easily & salt lines are difficult to remove I think the salt gets absorbed straight through the soles which makes it worse. I really wanted to wear these this winter, but guess not.😓
