Very comfortable, probably size up though
Super comfortable! Sizing is a little off though. I usually wear a 12.5 or 13, but the sizing guide for these specific shoes indicated I should purchase a 12, but knowing my feet, I initially purchased a 12.5, but then had to return those and get a 13.

Simple Design, Excellent Comfort for Everyday Wear
I've had these shoes for almost a month. They arrived sealed in an airtight bag rather than a traditional shoe box. I was initially hesitant because minimal packaging can sometimes signal rushed production or lower quality. That concern didn’t end up applying here, as the shoes themselves feel well-made and have held up nicely with regular use. They feel well-made and supportive, and I’ve had no issues with durability so far despite wearing them regularly.The style is fairly simple and understated, but still presentable and appropriate for everyday use. I’m not typically an Oxford wearer (these may be the first I've had), but these work well for practical situations, such as going to work, walking around, or making a quick stop at the gym. They’re also very easy to put on and take off, which has been especially important since I recently had surgery on my right leg. I’ve owned them for a while now, and they’ve continued to perform well without any problems. For about 40 bucks, I think these are a decent grab.

No Holes
These WHITIN casual shoes are immediately comfortable to wear. They have excellent traction.I am not of fan of elastic laces, but they can be replaced. Although matching the color exactly may be difficult. The mesh design does not have holes that go all the way through. If you are looking for an open mesh, these shoes will not provide that.The WHITIN brand is on the top of the insole. Made In China

VERY small and tight.
I honestly don't know if I was sent a wrong side. These are supposed to be 10 wide, but there is no tag that gives that size. Just a #43, which my research suggests is between a 9.5->10 in US mens.. and I suspect this is much closer to the 9.5 than the 10.For width.. if you have wide feet... sorry, these are just not going to cut it. They were so restrictive. Usually with the knit mesh, things are fine, but I feel like these were regular width shoes and they were using the knit mesh so it would "stretch" to fit a wide foot, but nah.. it felt like my feet were being crushed.They look nice and feel like they would be solid shoes... if they fit. Although I would question how long they would last, as the material doesn't feel particularly sturdy. The heel is reinforced, so that will last, but the rest was just the mesh and my sense it that will wear out quickly.Unlike some of my other dress sneakers, these did not just slide on. You had to go through completely unlacing them and even with them completely unlaced I had to struggle to get them on. So, they were not easy to use.I really wanted to like them, but they were so uncomfortable to wear, they are just going to be gifted or donated for the holidays.If your feet are not particularly wide (mine are 6E)... make sure you buy a size up, b/c what I got was not a full 10 at all, then they might work for you. As I said, they look nice... but I can't recommend them.

Attractive Shoes For Healthy Feet
I got these for my husband, whom I'm trying to get into barefoot shoes. I used to spend hundreds of dollars on top-of-the-line running shoes that were supposed to control overpronation and provide cushioning, arch support, etc., but all you need to do is strengthen your feet by wearing barefoot shoes so they can work as nature intended. Stop walking around on padded, pointy marshmallows. I switched to wearing only barefoot, zero-drop, wide-toe-box shoes with micro thin soles years ago, and all my chronic foot conditions have disappeared. It took a while, but once your feet are restored to health and proper natural functioning, you'll never go back to wearing traditional sneakers and shoes again. Whitin is one of my favorite brands, offering stylish and affordable barefoot shoes. Barefoot shoes shouldn't cost much, given their minimalist design. Expensive barefoot-shoe companies are trying to profit from the barefoot movement, but there's no need to spend a lot. Whitin has you covered. These are slightly cushioned compared to a true barefoot shoe, making them a good entry-level barefoot style, but you can remove the insole if you're already used to wearing barefoot shoes. The sizing is a little off; they're smaller than a full 10 wide. But they're another nice style from Whitin.

Another Homerun!
As an owner of several Whitin shoes, I didn't hesitate to pick these. Like the rest of the line, this shoe fits my wide foot true to size. Unlike the other Whitin shoes, these have a padded heel and a little more structure to the sole. The sole is still zero drop, but it doesn't have the flex that the other shoes have, giving you a little extra support. A little extra in the sole will probably raise the ultra-durability level. These shoes are perfect for business casual, so they open up more opportunities to wear barefoot shoes. Quality and value are impossible to beat with these shoes.
