WHITIN Men's Barefoot Running Shoes | Minimalist Cross-Trainer | Zero Drop Sole

wonderful shoes. Lighter than a feather, fit me nicely, super comfortable. can feel the ground I walk on, nice traction. not sure if it can withstand trail-running. you're getting a high-quality product for a wonderful price. then again, not sure how durable it is, but I have a feeling it'll last a long while.

Good fit and comfortable on the foot. Laces up easily and comfortable while walking and moving around! Great traction with a well designed sole and heel. Hard to find low profile running shoes/sneakers are hard to find with all of the thick soles slip ons out there, so these are a welcome find! Recommended!

These shoes are awesome! So light and natural that I have to look down and make sure that I am wearing shoes sometimes!! I am a runner, so I didn't need an adjustment period to start wearing them during everyday activities like work (where I am on my feet for 8 hours). They have a pretty good grip even on somewhat slick surfaces. However, they don't offer support like normal running shoes and they changed my normal gait during a trial track run with them on. Going from HOKA running shoes to these would not be an easy transition. I can highly recommend them for everyday use though. The fit of the shoe was perfect. I actually measured my foot and used the size guide to pick the right size for me.

Huge fan of these. I work for a shoe company and I wear these all the time to work. These are comfortable, affordable, surprisingly durable and stylish - I have several pairs already.My go-to shoe for working in the yard, working out, or just walking around.Fits pretty true to size - and I love that they’re wide only, cause that’s what I need for my feet.

Sizing runs small. I'm a 12 and ordered a 12 but they send a 45 and it doesnt fit. Seems like its a 11 instead of a 12.

I’ve bought multiple. The closest and cheapest you can get to barefoot shoes. Comfortable and looks amazing. It’s excellent for daily wear in the city.

I absolutely love these shoes! I've had one pair for a full year wearing almost every day and the quality is fantastic. I even came back to buy a second pair in a different color. They are holding together strong! I originally bought these as a minimalist every day walking shoe to strengthen my arch (I have a high arch) and reduce issues with plantar fasciitis. I wanted a shoe that had a zero drop and approximated barefoot walking while still looking good and protecting my feet outside. They have helped tremendously! I walk on the balls of my feet all day and I now have less issues. They wrap around my foot like a perfectly fit lightweight glove (foot type: high arch, thin heel, wide toe box. I mention this because if you have this foot type you know how difficult it is to find the perfect fit). I get compliments on them all the time, as well, for how good they look. They are easy to clean too. I give them a wipe with a wet washcloth or blow them off with an air compressor and they are back to looking as good as new. I also wear them in the gym for weight lifting and basic mobility training drills. They do very well.There are certain things they are not good at though, simply because of the type of shoe they are, and the thinness of the sole. So don't expect them to perform outside what they are made to do. I don't hike in these where I know the profile is very rocky or the path is covered in roots. You will feel every single one of them. Don't expect to feel comfortable in a tree adventure park either...that was a mistake I will not be making again. My feet tried to wrap around every wire and thin board. They were very tired and sore by the end of the excursion. I wouldn't run in them very far either, unless you are training to barefoot run and have a steady growth and strengthening plan. Otherwise, you could potentially injure yourself. If you intend to spend a lot of time walking or standing on a solid cement shop floor I would also caution against using these for that. Over the course of the day you will find that your feet will become very tired and sore. I would recommend a cushioned sole instead for that. I tried mountain biking with them and although you can do it, there just isn't enough support and protection. I would not recommend them for that use case. Lastly, they don't have a ton of side support since they have a cloth upper so they aren't very good at supporting your foot during quick or strong lateral movements. There have been a couple times in the gym where I felt as though I was going to roll out of the shoe.Summary: I am a big believer in buying the right shoe for the right use case! For everyday casual wear and as a weightlifting zero drop shoe, these are amazing! I would highly recommend them. For hiking, mountain biking, or running, go spend the money on a pair specifically designed for those activities.

If you're getting a zero drop sole shoe, then these are great. The fabric is a bit elastic which helps make the shoes feel comfortable immediately out of the box. I paired them with some elastic shoe laces and they make a great slip on.They are quiet, fit right but offer no arch support.Simple warnings if you have never had barefoot shoes, the lack of cushion is, at first, very hard on your shins. You will go around a month with shin pain as your body adapts to the change. The pain is never unbearable, but it's a bone pain which is definitely unpleasant. Due to this, don't give up. The temporary shin pain is worth the eventually lack of back pain and strain. While not a perfect solution to lower back pains, the benefits of barefoot shoes and zero drop soles are very real ib my experience and have relieved years of back pain.The next part, specific to this shoe is that the sole is thin. This is intentional but something you may not realize is that it is just thin enough for longer goat heads to penetrate the sole and prick your foot. This came as a shock to me the first time I got soles these thin. If you live in an area where goat heads grow then you may want to look into some sort of sole insert that is puncture resistant. Many are sold for construction workers for protection and they are around $15-35. You are easily able to remove the included insole and replace it and I'd recommend it if you may find yourself walking in goat heads or other such spikes.While you may debate whether or not you should try barefoot shoes and zero drop soles, if you find yourself wanting to try them out then I'd recommend these ones. Good for work, good for walking and worth the money.Edit: I have gone through my first pair. It lasted just over a year, like a month passed a year. The material in the sple finally wore through. The entire construction held up though, the only failure was the thin sole which is it's defining feature. I have no issue with the longevity, and bought a second pair.
