In a project that dates back almost four years ago, nuCamp has started to roll units of its Barefoot travel trailer off the production line.
In 2019, nuCamp announced a partnership with the British-based Barefoot Caravans. This agreement granted nuCamp exclusive rights to manufacture and sell the Barefoot in North America. At the beginning of 2020 the company began the work to “Americanize” the UK version, a process that took two years due to COVID and supply chain issues. In 2021 and 2022, unit prototypes were unveiled at the Florida RV SuperShow and Hershey RV Show. In December, the first unit rolled off the production line and was used at the official product
According to the company, the Barefoot is a unique, nostalgic travel camper featuring a spacious interior, curvy fiberglass body, seaglass-colored exterior and a free-flowing layout. The 16-foot trailer is packed with amenities, including a dinette that easily converts into a comfortable bed; a wet bath, including a cassette toilet; multiple storage options; a wardrobe inside the door; a medicine-style cabinet; and a hidden wine rack.
“Our goal was to take the beautiful UK Barefoot and transition it to the U.S. market,” said nuCamp CEO Scott Hubble. “We wanted to maintain the look and feel of the unit all while adding in components and features the North American market has come to think of as a standard. The high quality you have come to expect with all the nuCamp products will be no exception with the Barefoot. This is an incredibly unique product we are sure you will love.”
