Cheap, good, roomy-toebox shoe for athletics and everyday wear
As comfortable as my old Altra Lone Peaks, one-fourth the price, as well as hopefully an unchanging model for years to come. Replaced my old (depleted) stock of New Balance Minimus 10v1 — the shoes aren’t directly comparable, but as someone with a strong preference for those now-discontinued runners, these sufficed.Ran a half-marathon on a forest trail with no training in months and no break-in time for the shoes. No blisters. Lack of cushioning means the rocks and roots are noticeable, but I prefer that (teaches mindfulness about where to land the foot).Have since also used for yard work, basketball, walks, and everyday wear. Not exceedingly stylish, but neither am I.Too soon to speak to durability, but the price point and performance have me unworried as long as I can get six months of heavy use on asphalt, concrete, dirt, and grass.The velcro is nice, especially for running. Easier to get a perfect fit without too much pressure on the top bones of my feet.Will probably stockpile half a dozen pairs once this pair proves to last six months at my activity level and environment.Update six months in: Have held up ~250 miles trail running; uncounted miles on asphalt and grass; heavy sprinting, jumping, cutting on concrete while playing basketball; and weightlifting. Never had any issues, even though the size is slightly bigger than I may need — no sliding inside, yet also very low pressure applied to top of foot. No odor, but I wear an athletic wool blend sock which I credit for that. Beginning to see wear on the sole under the heel, as I do with all my minimalist shoes. Overall I’d say this sole has exceeded my expectations for durability given my time and motions on concrete and asphalt. Will purchase more. Hope build quality is consistent.

Awesome dad shoes
I’ve been shoeless and active me whole life, these things feel amazing and I absolutely destroy shoes. I love the style, the size fits nicely, super light and your foot slips right on. These shoes never busted on me, they smelled so bad from using them I had to stop because of the smell. The now my river and trail mucks.

Very comfortable and durable
Bought this pair over 5 months ago and still wear them. Best purchase I’ve made. Due to the fact my feet were actually spreading apart which is good since your feet spread more bare. My feet are fairly wide and I struggle wearing other trendy shoes due to having wide feet. They are perfect for your daily walk or jog. As far running I’m getting that full barefoot experience without having to take off my shoes. Definitely requires getting used to before running if you are new to it. They broke in well and secured to my feet. One thing to note about these is the grip on these shoes. I would not recommend wearing these in the rain. I had multiple times where I almost slipped on a smooth surface. While on concert it isn’t as bad but you will feel a bit unstable running or walking. As for using these at the gym they are decent just not the best for squats or deadlifts. Since I catch myself having to fix my leg positioning due slightly slipping. Maybe it’s due to lifting heavy, like anything above 300lb would be the limit. Overall very good shoes gives your feet enough space while secured and no issues having any blisters. Theres definitely some improvement my foot arch. I have a really flat feet and I just been loving it since. If you want something affordable; this pair is definitely the one!

Quality, comfort and they look cool
TL;DR see title of review. Good shoes.I purchased these shoes three years ago, I don’t wear them every day, but I wear them in phases, so to speak. Meaning I won’t wear them for a while, then I’ll exclusively wear them for a week or two… but anyway, I bought them on a whim a while back and am glad that I did. No rips or tears, the soles are really grippy and unique, they are easy to slip on and tighten up if needed and the glue that holds on the sole of the shoe hasn’t started to come off or anything. I do recommend hitting them with some sort of spray on water/dirt-shield to keep them as good looking as possible if you care about that. They also wash up well in the washing machine.

Great shoes
These shoes are awesome. Comfortable and great fit. Adequate room for my large wide feet.Especially in the toe box. No lift from the heel. Bought these for deadlift. Not sure why others have said they slip. I notice none of that. Great flat foot shoes.

Excellent while they last
They lasted about 9 month with daily wear.I took them hiking in a rather rocky era with a small stream. I noticed my balance was significantly improved without the fat cushion conventional shoes have. It was cool that my feet could “grip” the rock with the flexible sole. Most important, my feet hurt less than I thought they would the next day, so they held up.I also wore them daily at work and around the house. They were extremely comfortable, especially in winter. They were like sandals with a soft, comfortable cover. Had a few issues where they’d get caught on stuff every now and then. For example, the right shoe’s top cover got caught on a nail or screw or wire or something (I’m not sure what it was!) and it ended up tearing the fabric a bit.But, 9 months in, there’s a hole in ’em, and that’s that. I’m definitely hooked on the feel of these shoes, but I’d prefer more durability and I’m willing to pay for that. But, if you’re looking for something that’s effective and affordable, then I highly recommend these.

The best barefoot shoes for its price.
Used them for the trail running a few times. Great shoes. Maybe not the best for hard trails in forests with dirt etc. But they are great just for walking, light trail runs.Design is great and very comfortable to use and lace up. Size is perfect. Checked it with size guide.Definitely will take more shoes of this brand. It’s the best barefoot shoes for this price range!

Me gustaron mucho y los uso para el gym, sobretodo en día de pierna. Me da muy buena base!

Zapato favorito cómodo, muy bien hecho, es posible que no lo use para correr ya que el acolchado es más bajo que el promedio de un zapato para correr, pero podría correr descalzo ya que los dedos de los pies se extienden bien y la suela es de muy buena calidad.

(Aclaro que son mis primeras impresiones)Normalmente soy 7 mx. Los pedí en 8 por si las dudas y aún así me quedaron bien. Se nota que son más grandecitos de lo que debería usar pero no hay problema. Son muy cómodos y me dejan expandir mis dedos todo lo que dan.Estoy contento, ya veré más adelante qué tal en duración/calidad ya que los usaré diario en lo que estoy en el gimnasio.
