Support, especially in the arches, it seems as though they improve your posture.
These shoes are fabulous I've always been a big fan of five finger shoes which I have several pairs and only other thing I wear is Manitoba mukluks and those are only worn during the winter when it's cold and wet. But these are light and I mean light they're well structured they support my ankles and they support my very high end step! I had better balance in these shoes than I do and about any other shoe because they weigh so little I am taking taller steps which is good for my back and my posture and the way they're shaped they make me have a better posture. I love them I will have more pairs of these before they summer is out! They're wonderful. I would imagine that during the winter you could actually wear these in the house kind of like slippers. I was so interested in how much they weighed I actually fished out my postal scale and wait one shoe they weigh less than 2 oz apiece. Amazing and on top of that it's like the advertisement shows you can take them and crunch them up into your fist but you let go of when they go right back to the position at there in originally. There's no laces to high up they're the elastic cord and they're all like you know it's one loop all I have to do is tighten the loop and go. They're wonderful I can't say enough for them! Oh and they are not slippery I've had shoes in the past that you couldn't stand up on polished concrete but that's not what these are I'm unpolished concrete a lot I've actually worn them on terrazzo and we all know how our feet our ankles and our legs feel after standing on that stuff for a little while. I have none of the fatigue that I normally have in regular shoes after having stood on terrazzo for a couple of hours. These are really good!

Better fit than some of my socks!
Absolutely perfect. And amazing comfort. Better than what I'd expected, by quite a bit considering the great price. Plus service was par excellence: next morning delivery at 7 am.About my feet: belong on a duck. Truthfully I am an 8.5 with more Es than typical English text. So I typically get 9 Wide and an accustomed to some extra toe room. Not being an option herewith, I chose a size on the high side: 9.5 Men's, expecting a looser fit. Possibly heavy socks, defeating the idea of a minimalist shoe. But the fit is crazy perfect. Thus note to folks considering: THEY RUN SMALL!!!Next up: buying more pairs/colors. I may never wear other shoes again. But I'm 67, thus never again is relative. 😃

Good daily wear shoes
I bought them because they wear wide box shoes. You can wear them bare foot or with ankle sock. After a few hours I notice little or now fatigue or discomfort in the toes or heel. Most sneakers tend to leave me feeling worn out. These guys are awesome. The sizes are a little on the small size, so measure your feet. There should be a chart on the page. I normally where a size 12 shoe, or a 45 to a 47, depending on which European sizing chart there is. This was my only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was because of the sizing.They are a grippy shoe, and you’ll feel confident on uneven surfaces.

Wow!! 🤩
This will probably be my most detailed analysis of a pair of shoes I have ever made.My history- I’m 54, 175 and up until December, was walking 2-3 miles, 5 days a week when I got hit with an enormously painful case of plantar fasciitis. In January, I saw a doctor and got the miracle shot and got the go ahead to resume my walking. He recommended some stiff bottom shoes - so I went with my hiking shoes. Didn’t do very well with them- I started seeing these ads for barefoot shoes and figured what the heck, I’ll give them a shot… what’s the worst that can happen. So, I’ve been wearing them almost non stop for 2 weeks now. I’ve wore them for walks on concrete, blacktop, wooded trails, rocky trails,carpet walking tracks, up hills, down hills…pretty much anything I can think of… here’s my findings. First- let me say that these are the only shoes that made me want to throw away every other pair of shoes I own. On concrete- they aren’t very comfortable, on wooded trails, I feel like I can walk forever, large gravel walkways… not great, not horrible. Tiny gravel or carpeted walkways- they are fine. Up hills- no issues, downhills- no issues. Wooden walkways- no issues. My biggest problem is the balls of my feet have callouses that start getting enormously sore after 6-7 hours of wearing them so I added some extra cushion to that area and now it takes a few more hours before they start to hurt. I also have bunions and these are amazing with keeping those from hurting. So far, my plantar fasciitis has been mostly staying pain free- after several hours, it does flare up some- but mostly uncomfortable- not painful. Over all- I highly recommend these shoes.

My go to shoes for 10-12 hour shifts on my feet
I suffered for months because I work 10-12 hours a day on my feet but these solved all my issues. I’ve just repurchased these for a second time because they are so good. I have been pairing them with great value plantar fasciitis insoles from walmart for the past week and it literally feels like I’m working barefoot in just my socks and that’s exactly what I was going for. My $160+ new balance and brooks didn’t give me any relief because they are so cushioned (I think my feet/arches hates cushion) but these did so I don’t even reach for any other shoes for work any more.
