Perfect summer hiking shoe on dry terrain
I absolutely love these for dry terrain hikes and for everyday wear at home. I wore them as my only shoes on vacation to Texas and then Utah. They are very light, comfortable, and even cute looking. I like the silver stripes on the sides. The bottom of the shoes makes it grippy on dry terrain, but they are slippery on wet rocks, and that stopped me from climbing up a waterfall in Utah which was disappointing, but you can’t expect a $40 pair of shoes to work for everything. They were great on trails with mixtures of sand, small and large rocks, uphill and downhill. I wore them on hikes up to 5600 sq ft altitude and almost 3 miles round trip. They are very comfortable, and the bottom allows you to feel the rocks and trail and remain very surefooted. The toe box is wide and allowed my toes to spread out for great stability. I wear 8.5 in regular sneakers, and I got size 8 in these shoes, and that worked for hiking because I wanted a snug fit. I wore regular athletic socks, nothing padded. A couple of trails that I did include Ensign Peak in Salt Lake City, Dooly Knob Spur Trail on Antelope Island, and The Living Trail in Salt Lake City. I also like wearing these at home on the treadmill and to take care of the backyard chickens. I wear these more than I wear my xero shoes just because they are easier to clean if I step in chicken poop! I’ve washed these in the washer twice, and they come out looking great.

The best gym shoes!
SO comfy! I bought these specifically for the gym so I could lift “barefoot” without removing my shoes (against gym policy), but also do cardio comfortably on the treadmill or bike. I’ve used Vans and Converse for lifting in the past, but they’re so thick that they’re uncomfortable for cardio. These shoes are lightweight, flexible, and breathable. The toe box is nice and wide to allow natural foot movement. They’re so comfortable that I’ve even started wearing them to work in addition to the gym. They look very normal compared to some other barefoot shoes, which I appreciate. My only complaint is that they rub against my ankles a little bit, but this can be alleviated with the right socks. Overall, very happy with this purchase.

With lace adjustments, these shoes are perfect for me!
I normally wear a size 7 or 7.5 shoe. I ordered size 7. My toe is at the very end of the shoe, though not uncomfortable, since they have the wide toe box. Plenty of room there. They are more narrow in the middle of my foot, almost tighter than expected. I had to adjust the shoe laces, loosened them up a bit. Also I dont like the last shoe lace hole, it seems too tight around my lower ankle, so I adjusted that. They are heavier than I expected. BUT, I LOVE them! They are comfortable to wear around the house and at work. I have worn them walking on the treadmill, and my balance is so much better! I dont have to hold on to keep my balance. I would buy again!

Nice shoes that fit perfectly.
Color true to picture. Fit is perfect and very comfortable . Wore them out of the box for a whole day. I'm iny 80's and ballance is important. This is my second pair of barefoot shoes. I'm more confident walking and believe my ballance has improved.

Comfort plus in color at a reasonable price. Very versatile, supportive and attractive!
Quality of shoe is wonderful, does not have feel of a tennis shoe. I need the wide toe box because of injuries, they are soooo comfortable. I can wear them for a long time, and can also wear them barefoot which is great in the summer--much cooler that way. My being a little handicapped, I need the stability and support they give me. Come in a variety of colors. I liked them so much I purchased a second pair and wear them a good deal of the time, as they can be worn for most occasions.

Perfectly Wide!
These are the comfiest shoes ever! There is so much room in the toe box. I haven't run in them yet but I'm already impressed with just trying them on. Usually my toes feel squished but I have so much room in these! The knit top makes it flexible and doesn't leave a crease. They look great! I wish they had a light pink option.

Minimalist shoe, very comfy for wide feet/square toes.
I have wide feet with square toes and like shoes that do not fit too snug, and these fit wonderfully and are non-confining. Size true to average. Flexible and fairly sturdy. Laces are a little slippery so you might want to get lace locks.
