OUTSTANDING Comfort, Breathability, and Shape (And how to choose the Right Size)
These are EXACTLY what I've been searching for! The name brand barefoot shoes are a waste of money in my opinion, since no matter what, a small amount of rubber on a shoe means it's going to wear out faster than conventional shoes. So these are the right price! I even forewent a pair of Merrell Vapor Glove 6's for these. I tried 14 different pairs until I landed here. They are outstandingly comfortable and accommodating. Light and very breathable, yet just sturdy enough. It has the padding in the ankle of a regular shoe, the upper is very similar to a water shoe, and the bottom rubber is a minimalist barefoot shoe.I'm buying a second pair just in case they ever stop making them!NOTE: These DO run small, at least in the size 10-11 for men. The size 10 mens came with a "42" tag which equates to a size 8.5-9! The size 11 mens came with a 43 tag which equates to a 9.5-10! If you're, let's say, normally a size 10 or 10.5 in mens, I would order a size 11 and 12. Then return the one which doesn't fit the best. If you're normally a size 10.5-11 in mens, I would order a size 11 and 12 and do the same. Get the gist?If you can get the right size, I swear these shoes are awesome. I've tried several of the reasonably priced barefoot shoes on here (Orangineer, Whitin, etc), the Merrell Vapor Glove 6 and Trail Glove 7, and several of even the water shoes!I live in Arizona and it rarely rains here. So if you're often in warm-hot weather, these are the bees knees baby!

Great price for what they are
Love these! I'm sure I could get nicer shoes for twenty or thirty bucks more, but for one season these are holding up well.I found that I've been walking better and my feet hurt less than in normal sneakers. I have difficulty with finding the right arch support, and though these have pretty small arch support, it worked well for me. My feet hurt wearing them for the first day but I think that was just because I wasn't used to walking essentially barefoot yet, and afterwards they were much more comfortable. I find that they hold in moisture, so it's worth noting if you're worried about sweat or smell. I haven't tried washing the shoes themselves, but I did wash the rubber/foam insoles with my laundry like normal and they came out perfectly normal.The minor inconvenience I found was that the insole almost always comes out when I try to take the shoes off. You can easily take them off without hands but the insole will definitely come out. Other than that, there's nothing that really bothers me about the shoes.Overall, I pretty highly recommend! You can probably get a pair that will hold out for longer if you're willing to spend more, but for what they cost they were definitely worth it.

Amazing shoe
These shoes are so comfortable. It's like going barefoot but you have a protected sole. They are easy to slip on. The material is stretchy and has a very comfortable, massage like feel when wearing them.If you wear without socks, your soles may sweat a little bit I have noticed no odor build up in these shoes. If you want to wear socks and I'd go up a size.I have found that these shoes give me more stability. I'm not sure why but It may have something to do with the wider toe box that allows your foot room to work properly and/ or the flexible sole.I do know these will be the only athletic type shoe I'll be purchasing from now on.

Comfortable
I thought I'd try these shoes since I am on my feet 12 hrs a day at work and have plantar fasciitis & since so many people had told me how comfortable they are. They weren't wrong!!! Super light weight-tons of toe room and my feet feel fantastic after 12 hrs of wear. I just wish I had tried these first before spending over $100 on Hoka's. I LOVE these shoes!!! Just be sure to order the half size up as they do run small.

Better than the price
You never know how things will fit especially when they are so inexpensive. I was completely pleased with these shoes. They are comfortable and they fit perfectly. I’m glad I made this purchase.

Order a half or full size up
These are very comfortable, if you like minimalist shoes, however the size 12w/11m is just a bit too small. I normally wear 11 mens in most other shoes. My toes come withing a couple of cm of the end. Also, the lace cinch slips throughout the day. But for the price, I am very happy. Nice, wide toebox,

Was very comfortable but caused blisters at 2 miles
It fits well and was comfortable but both feet developed blisters at the balls of my feet near my second and third toes on both foot after 2 miles of walking. The trail was concrete. But felt great up to that point. I may have a foot problem that requires inserts but never had blisters firm when wearing regular sneakers or hiking shoes.
