We are saddened to share that our beloved Patchouli passed away last night. She ruled the Bookshop, and called Barefoot home for nine years.

We will miss her greatly. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, gave her a little scratch, offered a few words, or simply acknowledged her with a knowing nod. The shop won’t be the same without her.

Our team wishes you a happy and prosperous Sinhala and Tamil New year 🙏🏽✨

Our yarn is dyed in hanks, by hand, and laid out in the sun to dry. We dye with quality dyes that meet the highest textile compliance standards, in our very own dye plant with its Central Environment Authority certified water treatment plant.

Wound and perned, there is so much love and skill poured into each thread, before it meets our looms.

We have been fortunate to work with Niluka Dinesh since 2001. His beautifully hand-painted wooden bowls and plates bring colour and character to everyday objects. Perfect for any space, they make a lovely gift for a loved one, or a treat for yourself!

The Barefoot Crafted Throws hold much more than what meets the eye.

Inspired by the architectural buildings, the Blue City, travels to Myanmar, an appreciation for mosaics, and sentimental places, these throws take artistic form while remaining rooted in something deeply personal.

Few more throws are still available for purchase at the Barefoot Shop in Colombo!

“No Need to Look Common in Khaki Shorts.

We have skirts for trout fishermen, planters, hunters, wild-lifers, and, real or bogus environmentalists.”

Ashok Ferrey will be at Barefoot this weekend from 11 AM - 5 PM!

Grab his latest book, ‘Hot Butter Cuttlefish’ meet the author and get your copy signed ✍️

In his first book after 5 years Ferrey’s latest is a story about Malik, a personal trainer recovering from an unhappy marriage who relocated to Kalabola, where life takes an unexpected turn when Covid arrives and the community sees it as a deeply personal act of Karma. As shame, gossip and local politics spiral, the lines between hero and villain begin to blur. In this dark Sri Lankan romantic comedy, love appears in unlikely forms and redemption remains uncertain — especially when Karma may be the real leading lady.

Ancient Macedonian dress, reimagined for now. This Barefoot collection draws on clean, geometric cuts that make full use of precious handwoven fabric, with no excess and no waste. Naturally dyed and intentionally designed, each piece speaks to simplicity, respect for material, and a contemporary way of carrying history forward.

The new Macedonian collection has arrived. Drop by.
