Great affordable barefoot "transition" shoes and love that they are slip on!
My PT is getting me to transition to barefoot shoes. These are not 100% barefoot, but are good transition (they have a bit of cushion and support). I need to take this transition slowly. She recommended these and they are AWESOME! First, they have a wide toe box and a low drop. Second, while ideally I'd be barefoot around the house, I have 3 old dogs - so there is hair (and sometimes pee!) on the floor and I don't always want to be literally barefoot. Even if I am, I have to take these old dogs out to pee a lot. It is a pain to have to sit down and put on lace up shoes just to go outside for 5 mins. These are so much more affordable that I decided to give them a try - they are exactly what I was looking for - slip them on and go! They have a quick "pull tab" where you can tighten them if you need to, and if I am going to the store or something, I do that, but they are plenty secure without that just to go let the dogs out or run to the mailbox. They are comfortable (I've been wearing them every day since I got them 3 days ago). Seem to be good quality and they run true to size. Don't be confused about the "wide" on the sizing on the Amazon site. They are not "extra wide" I think they say that because all barefoot shoes are wider than normal ones at the toe, that is part of what makes them better for your feet.

Finally a shoe for seniors
I am handicapped and wear compression socks. I resigned myself to wearing clogs. But these shoes solve both of issues! They are so easy to put on, even with the compression socks. They are so comfortable and fit perfectly. My feet don't sweat or get hot like they did with the clogs. And the minimalist barefoot design helps me with my balance. I will be ordering another pair !

Feet don’t hurt at end of day
Feet true to size. Can wear them everywhere and my feet don’t hurt at end of day like most shoes. Great support and lightweight, easy to slip on too.

Good shoe for the right person just not for me!
These would have been perfect, I love the design and the style but they were just too big in one way and too small in the other. The price is great and the quality is there! The slip in feature feels a little silly because these shoes have a tongue that’ll bunch up if you don’t bend over to pull it up, maybe it’s just me but it seems like a great feature in thought!Too big - around the mid foot, I had to tighten the laces a ton to get them to have a snug fit. So if you have a high volume foot these would be amazing for you!Too small- it suggested me a size eight and the size eight was exactly my foot size, unfortunately my feet tend to swell a bit so I need a little room at the toe to accommodate that. I’d be afraid to buy a nine (since no 8.5 is offered) as they were already too big in the way I’d mentioned.Minimal cushion which is great if you’re looking for a good barefoot shoe. Very comfortable and plenty wide for splay, I have wide feet and decent toe separation and these still had plenty of room!It’s a great shoe just not for me!!

Wide Feet Are Comfortable At Last
I have wide feet that look like ducks feet. But a skinny heel. It’s always been hard to find shoes. I stumbled upon Hobibear and wanted to give them a try. They are wonderful and I even feel as if I am walking better. My feet while comfortable are also more stable. I now have 6 pair including 2 pair of boots for winter! I can’t express how freeing these shoes are and how happy my toes feel being able to stretch out instead of being pushed together.

Loose tongue
Fit was fair but what good is SLIP ON when the tongue of shoe slides down every time you SLIP on the shoe. It should be sewn in place. Got the shoes for ease of putting on due to in ability to bend down. They are comfortable to wear once you get them on

10/10 shoes
These are honestly the best pair of shoes i have ever worn. I normally love to wear birkenstock dupes, but these are by far on par, if not arguably better than birkenstock dupes. I struggle with heel/arch pain, and wearing these shoes makes me forget about that pain just like birkenstock dupes. I wear these to the gym, and when im taking long walks when i play pokemon go. I am def never getting another pair of work out shoes if they are not these shoes!
