WHITINMen's Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneakers | Zero Drop | Midfoot Stability

I had originally purchased a pair of sneakers from On Cloud, they looked great, felt good...but man once I walk in them for 5+ minutes it starts hurting the sides and soles of my feet. Unfortunately, I had to return them.I eventually found these and ordered a pair...for over $100 less. Ordered in my "normal" size. They fit great and they look decent. Quality seems to be good so far, no real complaints for the price honestly. I do wear them to the gym for weightlifting and the soles are SUPER grippy and stable. I originally bought a pair of laces for them but was pleased to find that the laces they came with were slightly elastic and best of all they're "soft" and pliable so I kept the original laces.I will say, I walked in these for an hour a couple of times. The first 2-3 times I did that the ball on one foot started swelling a little. But from what I understand now with these "minimal(ish)" style shoes, you need to let you feet get accustomed to them. Sure enough, no issues now walking in them.Definitely considering buy another pair in a different color.

I’m used to wearing and walking in zero-drop shoes, and I saw that these Within shoes are much more reasonably priced than other brands, so I thought I’d give them a try when my Altras wore out. These shoes are fit perfectly (I’m a size 9 Medium in general), and I ordered these in that size (Euro 42). I laced these loosely so that I could slip them on and off without untying them. They feel like wearing a sock with a nice rubber sole. Actually, the laces are superfluous, because the shoes are snug enough on my feet without any laces at all. The zero drop makes them very stable, too. They look good (I got the green/gum ones) enough to wear with anything casual, and they are quality-made with nice and substantial insoles and good stitching. They are minimally cushioned, so they are really like being barefoot without having to worry about stepping on something that would hurt your bare foot! You could easily wear these as house slippers, workout shoes, walking shoes or casual shoes. Running in them would even work if you are a forefoot runner and not a heel striker. Bottom line: comfortable slip-on and -off, do anything shoes. I will be getting more of these!

These are a great first pair of barefoot shoes especially for walking. For running they don't work for me but milage may very. If you have the money then I would get something more durable like Vivobarefoot, Feelgrounds, Groundies, Be Lenka, etc.Durability - I wore these delivering pizzas for around 30 hours a week. The tread went flat in a few months. I kept wearing them and they lasted me about 11 months before the soles split and water got in. At some point the sole also started rolling over itself a bit which I felt slightly while walking. On the outside the treading all looks good but on the inside it's falling apart a bit. For $40 I can't really complain, but it is a little wasteful to have to replace your shoes once or twice a year.Comfort - if you like cushy shoes then these are a big adjustment. Once you get used to them, they are super comfy for walking; they really feel sort of barefoot. For running they don't really work for me because when I tighten down the laces, the tongue folds over and becomes a pressure point. They have thin, flexible, somewhat soft soles; I would not want to step on a nail in these but they provide great ground feel. The toe box is nice and wide so they don't squeeze my toes.

The media could not be loaded. UPDATE: I LOVE THEM AND KEPT THEM! Guys I am 315lbs and I was so accustomed to having lots of padding in my shoes because of my spine issues but let me tell you that even though you can feel everything on the floor from these shoes, it gives a support that actually feels really good and helps minimize my pain. I might start off in pain but then the pain goes away versus with sketchers foam shoes I start off with minimal pain or none and end up in pain. They even make me walk more inverted I feel which is what I believe in aligns my spine and that's why I end up in more pain. 5 stars for sure!These shoes are amazing for walking and I have back problems. Yesterday I went to a museum with other shoes and my back was killing me. I came home and I had to walk my dog and I put these shoes on to test them out and it actually helped minimize my back pay and I was able to walk better. However, today I tested them out again and I have a pain in the back of my right foot because the shoe is digging into it now. I did notice yesterday that this is a wide shoe but somehow my foot is still being squeezed from in front around the ankle area of the tongue of the shoe and I thought I could live with this if I make some slits but the shoe the way that it's made. If you make slits you make slits in the whole shoe because there is no tongue. It's just one material or one piece for the whole shoe plus a second piece that makes for the shoelaces. So if I were to cut slits on the tongue then the whole shoe is compromised. Again, I'm very divided because these shoes feel great on the bottom of my feet walking and even help my posture my back pain. So I will let you know and give you an update on what I decide

The price I payed vs the quality I received do not match at all. The are an amazing deal. The are super comfy, super sturdy, and look good too. Do I expect them to last years and years and years, no. But at this price even if I had to buy a pair every year it still comes out cheaper then other barefoot shoes out there. That being said, the soles are ridged, not much feeling of the ground below the feet. I would not recommend if you have thick feet as they are a bit tight. However the toe box is super wide. The laces are almost purely for aesthetics, as the shoe firs like a sock. Hense I do not recommend for people with thick feet. But all in all happy with the purchace.

Encontré que la marca era recomendada en Reddit por su buena relación calidad precio.Compré este modelo porque buscaba una opción intermedia entre deportivo y casual.Se ven bien, son cómodos y son amplios. Sin embargo pienso que la plantilla que trae es grande considerando que lo que busco es la menor diferencia entre el suelo y mi pie. Y quitarle la plantilla hace que pierdas algo así como media talla, entonces siento que traigo zapatos que no son de mi talla.Durabilidad, materiales y estilo, todo genial

Son extremadamente cómodos, el color azul marino es sensacional. Al tratarse de zapatos que apuntan al Barefoot, la suela es delgada, por lo que piedras o cualquier objeto sobre el piso que sobre salga se va a sentir con más intensidad que en el calzado normal.La parte de los dedos es amplia y permite movilidad a los dedos. No los clasificaría 100% como Barefoot, sino como zapatos para iniciar la transición a calzado Barefoot estrictamente hablando. Una de las características para denominarlos de tal forma es la ligera elevación en la punta del calzado.Sin lugar a dudas, por la calidad, estética y funcionamiento, yo recomendaría ampliamente iniciar con calzado como este, antes de hacer el cambio total a calzado Barefoot, como Vivobarefoot, que son mucho más costosos pero ya son zapatos zero drop en toda la extensión de la palabra.

Muy buenos todos los dedos libres y la suela calidad

The wide toe box and minimalist feel of these shoes is great. Great choice for an entry level to minimalist shoes. The removable sole can help ease you into gradually reducing the cushioning on your foot. I do not take them out in the rain or snow, the adhesive does look a bit iffy around the sole of the shoe. When they stay dry they feel and look great though.

Well made barefoot shoes.Comfortable.Fits snug at the heel. Wider at the toe.Wish they had an Extra-Wide.
