Two reasons for this name. First of all, it is the diminutive of "Primitif", symbol of a return to the origins, to the sensations of walking barefoot.
And it's also the translation of "First". This name seemed ideal to us for our first model.
The Primi model is the first barefoot shoe we created.
After two years of research, development and testing, we were finally able to market them in April 2021.
We wanted our first model to be universal, unisex, all generations and all seasons.
We therefore designed this canvas sneaker and came in 2 versions, low and high .
To wear in town or on a short stroll. The exterior is made of recycled cotton and the interior of soft bamboo.
Dust
Using a microfiber or soft damp cloth, gently rub the exterior fabric of your Primi.
Detach
If you do a stain (greasy, etc.) on your Primi, we advise you to use a natural fabric stain remover so as not to damage the material.
Hand washing
Leave your Primi to soak in a basin of lukewarm or cold water with a mild detergent (avoid detergents).
Let them dry without rushing them, if possible outside (no tumble dryer).
Recommended waterproofing
For rain or unforeseen tasks, we recommend waterproofing your Primi to make maintenance easier. Discover our eco-friendly waterproofing here .
The lifespan of shoes takes into account several factors and can vary greatly from person to person.
The number of kilometers traveled, the weight of the person, the care taken in maintaining the shoes, whether you only wear this pair or whether you alternate between several, whether or not you tend to wear out your shoes in general. ..
We give an estimate between 2 and 4 years but it could be more.
Seasonality of the primi model:
Spring - autumn: the most favorable period
Summer: Can be a little hot except for people used to closed shoes in summer.
Winter: if the weather is dry (waterproof model) you can add a warm pure wool sock for example.
Severe weather:
Primi are canvas shoes, you can waterproof them so that they become water-repellent. Discover our eco-friendly waterproofing here .
Terrains and Reliefs
Télito shoes are city shoes to wear every day.
We chose a city shoe or even a short walk.
The natural textiles that we have chosen are not adapted to the constraints linked to intensive sporting use. If you want to go hiking, sports,... call us on 04 90 62 08 50, we will be able to advise you.
Greek and Egyptian foot shapes, as well as wide to thin feet, will find their place in Télito shoes. Square and extra-wide legs will be cramped.
Wearing orthopedic insoles is possible as long as they are thin and flexible. However, the effect of the shoe will be somewhat muted. If you choose to put your insoles in Télito, consider taking a size larger.
Do not hesitate to ask the podiatrist or health professional who is treating you for an opinion.
Primi Télito are made from 70% recycled materials and are 100% recyclable (by us).
Outer fabric: 70% recycled cotton, 30% viscose.
Yoke: 70% cotton, 30% hemp, both sustainably produced.

It is Marie who designs and designs all the Télito collections, in France, in Carpentras.

Our sole is unique and required the creation of specific molds. Indeed, as it has no heel or reinforcement (arch), we had to create our own molds in order to respect our physiological criteria. Our sole is thin and flat, the same thickness under the entire foot (7mm).
So we designed and placed our sole. we chose to reveal cells underneath to stimulate the reflex points of the foot and give more flexibility to the sole to allow it to follow the movement of the foot without constraint. Wide at the front, it respects the morphology of the foot and allows the toes to regain their freedom, thus improving proprioception.
It is composed of 70% recycled natural rubber (old soles) and 30% new natural rubber, this is the ideal proportion to guarantee the solidity of the sole. And to raise awareness about recycling, we chose to incorporate coffee grounds recovered from restaurateurs or cork scraps, waste from Portuguese industry.
The barefoot shoe allows you to rediscover the benefits and sensations of walking barefoot, the original and natural way of man.
It is an ultra-soft and comfortable shoe, which respects the morphology of the foot and gives it full freedom of movement.
With its wide shape at the front, it is also suitable for deformed feet (hallux valgus, etc.).
It allows the thumb to realign itself.
Its thin sole (5mm) provides self-massage thanks to the feeling of the relief of the ground which stimulates the reflex points of the foot. Posture, venous return, strengthening of the muscles of the feet, ankles and calves are improved, thus preserving the knees, hips and back.
Beyond the well-being and aesthetic aspect, the environmental aspect is particularly close to our hearts.
Our first idea was to offer you shoes made from organic textiles. But ultimately, organic would have required producing new specific raw materials.
So we turned to recycled and 100% recyclable materials. Let's value, let's give a second life to what we throw away.
We have therefore thought out the entire cycle of our shoes so that it has as little impact as possible on the environment. All our materials come from Spain and our manufacturing workshop is in Portugal.
Our shoes are even 100% recyclable! We recover them at the end of their life.
Create shoes? Yes ! By respecting our beautiful planet? Yes Yes Yes !!
