FAQs
Yes. Recharge is designed for running on both roads and trails, combining a cushioned, supportive feel with a grippy rubber outsole.
Its 27mm stack height and 8mm heel-to-toe drop provide a more familiar running-shoe experience than our barefoot range, while the Ground Flow System lets you stay electrically connected to the earth on grounded surfaces.
Recharge is particularly well suited to roads, gravel paths and everyday trails rather than extreme off-road terrain.
Recharge is our traditional-fit grounded running shoe, with an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, 27mm stack height and a conventional toe-box shape.
Revive Modes follow barefoot footwear principles, with a foot-shaped fit, zero-drop design and three distinct cushioning options: Revive Flex, Revive Adapt and Revive Endurance.
If you prefer a familiar cushioned running-shoe feel, Recharge is a great option. If you're interested in giving your toes more room, experiencing a zero-drop platform and choosing your level of ground feel, explore Revive.
Both feature our Ground Flow System.
No. Recharge uses a traditional running-shoe design rather than barefoot footwear principles.
It has an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, a conventional toe-box shape and more cushioning than our minimal barefoot styles.
What Recharge shares with our barefoot range is the Ground Flow System, designed to establish an electrical connection with the earth on grounded surfaces.
If you're looking for a foot-shaped, zero-drop barefoot shoe, our Revive range is the better place to start.
Yes. Although Recharge was developed primarily for running, it's a versatile shoe that's also suitable for walking, gym sessions, golf and everyday wear.
The cushioned construction provides a familiar feel underfoot, while its rubber outsole offers grip across a range of surfaces.
For regular golf in wet conditions, remember that Recharge is water-resistant rather than fully waterproof. If waterproofing is important, Rewild may be a better option.
Recharge is water-resistant, not waterproof.
Its breathable engineered mesh upper features a bio-based, non-fluorinated water-resistant finish to help with light moisture and changing conditions.
It's a practical choice for everyday running, walking and lighter trail use. However, for sustained rain, wet grass or particularly muddy conditions, we'd recommend choosing one of our waterproof footwear options.
Recharge has a 27mm total stack height and an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, providing a cushioned, supportive running-shoe experience.
Unlike our barefoot range, Recharge doesn't use our three cushioning Modes.
Recharge has a traditional running-shoe fit and is generally true to size.
We recommend checking our size guide before ordering, particularly if you're comparing Recharge with barefoot shoes, which often have a different toe-box shape.
If you're between sizes, we recommend going up to the next available full size.
Bahé grounding shoes are designed for everyday movement, with our Ground Flow System allowing you to connect with the earth's natural electrical energy on grounded surfaces - much like being barefoot, but with the comfort and protection of footwear.
As with being barefoot, it's important to take sensible precautions around electricity. Avoid wearing grounding shoes near exposed live electrical parts, faulty electrical equipment, or anywhere there's a risk of electric shock.
Bahé grounding shoes are designed to help you enjoy a natural connection with the earth throughout your day, not to provide protection against electrical hazards.
If you have further questions, please feel free to drop us and email and we’ll be glad to help.
I am very satisfied with the quality of the product and the conductivity of the soles. I recommend them.
Really happy with these. I live in Scotland where it’s very wet and cold winters. Love that I can get my grounding fix now without getting frostbite! And they don’t stain after getting wet which is ideal. They’re dead comfy so wearing for exercise and going to the office - imagine they’d be good for running
These shoes are comfortable and attractive but they are much more bulkier than expected.
Really happy with these trainers! Super comfortable, look great and excellent quality. Always nice to support new businesses that delivers such a great product. Very simple ordering and delivery process. Highly recommend!
Whilst I’m between sizes and it need a while to wear out to my foot shape I love the shoes
I now bought my second pair as I walked nr1 to it’s natural end 🤣
I got these for someone because they were the most affordable (discontinued?). He is used to wearing fly knit but these bahe pointy ones hurt him
Hi there, thanks for your review! Yes it sounds like our barefoot options would have worked better, and this is our focus now at Bahé. Hopefully they'll get to try them sometime. We appreciate your order and hope they still get lots of use from the Recharge shoes.
Great pair of shoes . Very comfy and light . Easy to move in and feel safe . I use them for circuits
I have the hardest time finding shoes of any kind for my wide feet, needing a little arch support , and my big toe nails I can’t cut too short or causes problems. These feel good on day one of wearing them. Super comfortable and fits so perfectly. These are my “inside” shoes. I will be purchasing a second pair for my outside activities.
The footwear isnof excellent quality.
The fit is secure and feels very comfortable, from the moment I put them on.
I feel reassured that all comes with the knowledge that I am Grounded aswell.
Good job guys .
I wish you every success. 👍
I am not nearly as tired after a run. Grounding works, and you can notice it in your well-being as alertness and faster recovery."
Ich habe siw empfohlene Anleitung zur Berechnung der Größe meiner ersten Schuhe mit nreiter Zehenbox befolgt. Interessanterweise sind sie zu schmal auf Höhe des Gelenks der großen Zehe, sogar schmaler als meine Puma Trainingsschuhe! Beeindruckend ;-) schlecht.
Really pleased with these shoes, they look very trendy on and I have confirmed their grounding capabilities with multimeter :)
I've bought Altra, Freet and now Bahé. The Altras are good but quite bulky, the Freets are good but have very limited cushioning which I want when playing tennis. It's so good to find a company that really understands what people want, they offer a variety of cushioning, style and flexibility and best of all they are a UK company. I found their website really good for selecting the best shoe for me and it's also really good to be able to get barefoot shoes that don't look out of place on the tennis court (in white). Plus very good customer service.
Confortable and good for running, besides grounding benefits
The shoe is very beautiful. It does not have a lot of space for fingers, so it s more like a regular shoe. For the sneaker that is this much elevated from the ground, i expected it to feel softer when walking.
Hi Nadja, thanks for your order and feedback. The Recharge is our 'regular fit' style, all other options feature our barefoot fit and zero-drop soles.
Comfortable and grounding works
I bought these for my son. The shoes are comfortable and we verified with a grounding meter that they work. They are more attractive than another grounding shoe brand that we bought in the past. Happy with purchase.
Love the colour way and principle but sadly have to return due to my feet being too wide
Loving these shoes and really appreciated the exceptional customer service I received while processing an exchange! Will be buying more soon.
Thanks for the review Amanda and we are pleased we could assist and you are now enjoying your shoes. We hope to see you back with us soon.
My wife said that shoes are good for her, and fit wery vell. Thank you for the good service.
I had been eyeing Bahé grounding shoes for a long while, and I am so pleased with them. I love the idea of using grounding technology in shoes, it’s genius, and I look forward to all the walks I will be going on with these. The size is slightly smaller than usual I would say, but still fits (I got a 37).
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're gladto hear that you're happy with your Recharge Grounding shoes! We agree that incorporating grounding technology into shoes is a genius idea and we're glad you're enjoying the benefits. We'll definitely take note of your sizing feedback for future improvements. Happy walking!
Recharge Grounding shoe (Women's) - Sandstone
Great trainers, very comfortable.
Love my recharge grounding shoes! And best customer service I’ve ever encountered! Customer for life!
Love these shoes! Comfortable and have the grounding benefits!
Very comfortable to wear, I have Multiple sclerosis and these really helped with the pain level and sleeping, I just ordered my 2nd pair. Thank you Bahe
I’ve had the recharge grounding shoes for around 2 weeks now, they are an okay shoe overall except 1 aspect. My one complaint is the rubber grip on the bottom has already begun to peel. These shoes are just now getting to their broken in point and I don’t feel they will last nearly as long as some competitors I have previously worn.
Hi Jed, thanks a lot for your order. We certainly wouldn't expect the peeling you've experienced so if you were to contact us at returns@bahe.co we'll find a solution for you.
I have sent Bahe two emails to exchange my shoes for a larger size. I am still within the 30 days of receiving them and have provided the order number and sent to email address requested in the enclosed paperwork with the shoes to get exchanged. I would expect a respond by now as I’m doing my part to make the exchange. Please provide the service on the back end to make sure customers are getting what we need.
Hi Staci, thanks for your order, it's much appreciated. We checked our systems and can't see any email from you. Please can you email returns@bahe.co and we'll assist you.
This is my second pair of the Recharge running shoe. They are super comfortable, supportive but grounding too. Love them!
