   Bunion friendly!
   I have bunions which makes finding comfortable shoes really hard. These fit comfortably right out of the box! I ordered my regular size. I’ve been wearing them for about a month for walks, errands, and everyday wear and they never hurt my feet. I like the style too, it’s simple and minimal. Other barefoot brands that have worked for me are Xero and Lems, I would say these have a similar feel. Obviously they are more cheaply made but for casual everyday wear these are good quality. I tried the hobibear brand shoe that looks just like these and found the whitn more comfy. The one downside is I wanted a clean white shoe and dirt seems to cling to the fabric material. Hopefully they will wash up fine when I try to clean them.

   These shoes saved my life
   I’m so glad this company exists to offer transitional zero drop wide toe box shoes. I was in a serious car accident that devastated my life as a I know it. I got to where I couldn’t even sit in a chair or stand for more than a few minute at A time because systemic injuries and a back and neck injury. I basically had to throw away all my shoes because the foot pain from standing in them was untenable after the wreck. I had been wearing zero drop shoes for the most Part but because of the lack of options available locally and affordably I wasn’t getting shoes that were wide toe box enough, which along with the rest of the fit is the most important part of a healthy shoe above all else because of my injuries I need more cushion than the typical barefoot injury. This tennis shoe was a dream as soon as I put it on. I also added another zero drop insert into it (a crock foam insert I got on Amazon) and it provided just the right amount of cushion. They really helped me start to progress more in physical therapy and start taking short walks. I tried Olympia Altras at first but these are so much more comfortable to me. I then tried the Altra escalates and one other style by them and again these are just way more comfortable because the sole is flexible. And if someone wants the more barefoot feel they don’t have to add the insert I added or they can even remove the one in there. I also think the barefoot part of the equation can go To far when many of us are all walking around on cement a lot of the time and when there’s a good balance that can be found in combining traditional wisdom with progress. I also love the price point on these shoes and the fact that even though they have a wink of what folks call clown shape to them (which is just the shape of a normal foot) like a lot of primal shoes, they are adorable. They really are a cute and comfortable shoes. I just really wish this company would increase the size on their ballet flat because they don’t have my size in that shoe. I’m a 10-10.5 but I feel best in a 11 in these shoes so I had extra room for my toes. So I wish they would go up to an 11 in their ballet flat. I could have probably got a way with a 10.5. I got the gray and they look great with long pillazzo pants and also even with the right skirt or dress.

   fits fred flintstone feet
   i have been wearing these for a month now and im ready to reviewI purchased these as a keds type shoe to wear for the summer..keds don’t fit me but i like the look with shorts and sometimes you just don’t want to wear a running sneaker or sandalsizing – this review is for the widefit whiten which i am grateful for its availability. i wear on average a 7.5or 8 shoe with a 2E width…my foot is very wide with short stubby toes…at the base of the toes – 9.8 cm wide…that’s 3.85″…so size wise i’m equivalent to 10 width size 7.5 length…very hard for me to find any kind of shoe.I found these and decided to give them a try and i have to say these are very doable. the size 8 fits my toes with room to spare and i can say that i never realized how nice it is for my toes to just stick out straight without being pinched together. even after a month i still am aware of the freedom my toes feel when i wear these.Fit- over all i would say these fit true to size…i ordered the size based on width, so i went with the 8…lengthwise, they’re probably a bit long…not enough to trip over, and when i walk i don’t notice it, but the weave is denser along the first inch closest to the seams and when i wiggle my toes the nails hit that boundary which feels weird to me. i just want to be clear that this doesn’t impact walking, its only something i notice when i wiggle my toes. On the good side it points to a longer lasting shoe. Width wise the fabric has no stretch so if the shoes fit with a thin sock don’t expect to them to stretch out and wear thicker socks…or suffer the consequences. I tried to wear a thick running sock and after 20 min started to get pins and needles and took the socks off. One down side…(minus one star) others have mentioned this and i wholeheartedly agree that the seam at the pinky toe is totally annoying. i notice it when i first put them on and notice it when i am sitting…not so much when i am walking. I think its two fold, one, the seam makes it much thinker and less flexible at that spot and two the edge of the fabric can rub if you have sensitive toes. Sometimes it bothers me and sometimes it doesn’t. I’m thinking about figuring out if i can iron on a patch to smooth it out but probably wont…seems like a lot of work for the return of investment.Support – funny that even without any sort of built in support my foot feels well supported. the Sole is flat…i repeat FLAT… but the way the shoe is shaped when i tie the laces my arch feels cradled. Now if you have arch needs these shoes will not give you that kind of support…even so i do feel that my foot is strong and grounded when wearing these.side note and good to knows1. these wash well…i washed them in cold water and left them to dry overnight…came out looking like new2. yes the liner will come out with your foot when you take them off…3. if you are used to a lot of cushioning or this is your first time wearing a “barefoot” shoe, your ankle and feet WILL FEEL SORE for a while. In most cases, and this is what i have realized after watching many videos about the whole concept is that your feet are adjusting to a different more natural way of walking. your toes will be used to propel you forward, your arch will actually hold your foot in place and your ankle will start accommodating for a more natural gate. Your forefoot will hit the ground before your heel as you wear them more…and all of those weakness that sneakers have been adjusting for you will be realized as soreness until you balance out.4. you might not want to go back to regular shoes…yes, they look like duck feet in comparison, but its not really that bad in reality and the comfort outweighs the look

   These shoes were perfect! And they’re so cute, they look like kids shoes. I’ve gotten so many comments on them.The only drawback is they can be squeaky on certain floor types lol

   For the price they can’t be beat.I have very wide feet sometimes foot shapes shoes are still not wide enough. These were great!Only complaint is the white does not wash as well as I would like but that might be all white sneakers.

   These barefoot shoes are perfect for work. My toes have ample space to move around and just BE. I wear them with no socks which to me makes these more comfortable and freeing. I’d recommend getting your size in the ‘wide’ version for lots of room. I’m going to buy these in every colour!!EDIT: 6 months later they fit and feel amazing. Really great quality. I wear them for everyday use (work, errands, casual outings).

   I wear these shoes indoors. They give my feet plenty of space (I have bunions). My feet are never sore when wearing them indoors. I forget to change them one day when going shopping. They were OK outdoors, but I found my feet getting sore as the sole is not thick enough for walking outside.
