WHITINWomen's Wide Minimalist Barefoot Shoes | Zero Drop Sole

First off, my feet are jacked up. Worst bunions ever. So any tennis shoes I get usually have a hard seam right where the bunion is causing severe pain, or they are just too narrow and squeeze my foot. These shoes, with the wide toe box, and seams that fall below the bunion are soooo comfortable.My second jacked up foot issue is that if I wear anything with any type of arch, I develop severe pain down the sides of my feet. So I go for what I like to call the 'barefoot' type shoe. Flat with no support. Now this might not be for everyone, but it works for me.Normally, after an hour or so in regular tennis shoes, my feet hurt, can't walk, legs get tired and I'm ready to stop what I'm doing. But these shoes...I'm good to go for hours. Now I won't say my feet don't get tired, because they do but they aren't painful and aching.I have bought two pairs of them. The gray and white pair. Love them both. The white pair has one thing that bugs me though. The gum-colored sole. I wish it was white. Other than that, they fit true to size, slip on easily, have plenty of room for toes, bunions, and other foot ailments. The flatter bottom is similar to walking around barefoot with a little cushion.I would definitely buy these again.

I’ve been a runner off and on for about 15 years. I have extremely wide feet, low ankles and low arches. My biggest caveat with so many wider fit shoes is the assumption that:- low arches are fallen arches- people with these feet over pronate… this isn’t my case. Because I have naturally low arches, I tend to be mostly neutral w/ a slight inclination toward supination and those higher in-step stabilizing shoes just end up killing my knees. I’m usually left having to decide between scrunched toes or knee pain - either way, it ends up with me just simply not running to avoid lasting injuries to my jointsThis is why I’m drawn to minimalist, zero drop shoes (they also help me correct my natural heel striking and reinforce landing my mg mid foot). My favorites have been Altras but they’ve more recently pivoted to stacked, plushy soles which is super frustrating because those also aren’t great for me.When I found these and read reviews, I was pretty psyched but also weary. When I tried them on? I ate my words.Not only are they EXACTLY what I was looking for, they also reminded me of the original shoe that made me love a zero drop knit shoe - which was the original Nike flyknits (from about 10 years ago).Unlike a lot of “knit” shoes, which are usually made with a harder + scratchier material, these are so soft - but also make the sides of my feet feel just the right amount of supported (the sides of the soles go up just the tiniest bit to help) and allow my toes to spread and wiggle with ease. They a little bit of padding in the back of the ankle too.These are also a PERFECT for cross training and weight lifting as well!I’ve done about 5 miles in them so far and while I have a little bit of foot fatigue, I think it’s only because I had to get plushier soled shoes which decreased the staminaI had built previously.Overall, really great and I’m excited to try out their canvas line for casual Street wear.I truly hope they don’t mess with the construction on these. Don’t fix what isn’t broken!!!!*** The *only* reason I dropped a star is I found them to be a little bigger than what was advertised by the measurements and wished I hadn’t sized up a 1/2 size from my usual 8.5. Will update as I put more miles on them.

I have been a barefoot gal all my life, started wearing orthopedic shoes at 6 months old, b/c of leg issues. So never had chance for style until early teens. Still limited as foot is wide, have high arch and such. While color and quality seem to be decent. I am not sure why the toe box needs to be shaped like duck web feet being wide and angled. I get it. Spose to add to the ergonomic barefoot claim. But they are kinda ugly. Fit is a teeny bit large.

These shoes are so comfortable! I have a wide foot and high instep which makes regular tennis shoes near impossible to wear with any comfort. The wide toe box and stretch shoe material eliminated those problems for me! The only thing that seems to be a con is being on your feet for 8+ hours straight, I found myself getting a little sore in my heels and knees

As long as you understand what minimalist shoes are, you will find these shoes a fantastic bargain. My toes have plenty of space and feel great in them. My feet measure 23x10 cm for reference and I bought the 6 1/2. The traction is good as well. I wouldn’t hike in this pair, but for every day it’s fine. My only wish is that they could be tightened a little more and closer to the ankle as there is a little more space than I would like around the heel. There is cushioning on the heel that helps keep them in place and I have not had any blisters or anything, just a personal preference.

I have bunions and bunionettes issues so my feet are getting wider. In addition, I need to wear orthotics so finding a comfortable pair is not easy. I haven't worked out this pair but these are very comfortable to wear. I can wear my orthotics without any problems and the heel cup is deep enough with some cushion. I wanted to have a white pair but they were not available so I got a light grey which is not bad.  I will update my review after work out for a while.

Great starter barefoot shoe that doesn’t break the bank. You definitely get what you pay for, but i have no issue with beating these up and not thinking twice versus with something more expensive like a vivo.Sizing is a true to size kinda. If you’re in between measurements go up if you don’t mind more room but it might be a bit sloshy. Versus you’d definitely have a more locked in fit if you went down. I should have went down personally I think i would enjoy the fit more… less wiggle room and loose fabric around the ankle. Overall good purchase.

The shoe itself was very nice, considering the price. Comfortable overall, but tight on the tops of my big toes. I tried 2 different sizes and I ha the same issue with both. They both did slip a bit too without socks, even when they were tied tighter. Unfortunate because I really did like them!

Love them

I love these shoes. My feet feel great and they look fashionable.
