WHITIN Men’s Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneakers | Zero Drop | Midfoot Stability

Never going back to normal shoes – 360k steps later
After approximately 360k+ steps I can say I love these shoes and will never return to normal shoes.Sizing: I wear a size 9.5 in most standard shoes (this gave me about 3/4 of an inch of toe room. My go to’s prior were ON clouds and Adidas ultraboosts. I initially bought these in 9’s and felt that they were a tad too roomy so I downsized only to find they felt a little tight for comfort. Then I realized in the product listing the insole is intentionally removable so I removed it and found I had the perfect fit.Comfort: They are extremely comfortable you can feel how much they flex with your foot and how much more grip you get on the ground. The extra grip they give is great. The soles are thin so be prepared to feel the ground below your feet. The material seems pretty durable so far and very airy. They initially give a borderline uncomfortable amount of width for your feet but your feet quickly adapt.Quality: Not much to say. All the stitching is good. All glue seems to hold well. The rubber is flexible and shows no signs of tearing. The material itself seems good quality and is somewhat similar to what is used in ultraboosts but a little thicker and a little less elastic, but still just as breathable.Other notes: I got some elastic laces. I canning recommend this enough, the nature of the shoe makes it REALLY easy to slip on. Add some quality elastic laces and it just makes life so easy.Additionally, after wearing them for a weak I did have some muscle aches and pains but I managed to work through it and they dissipated after a week or so. Don’t push your body too hard initially. I’m in the work of physical therapy so I was able to manage my muscles a bit better than the average person likely would. After week two I suddenly regained the ability to spread my toes on command which I’ve never been able to do. I also have chronic back pain. I DO NOT recommend these if you have back pain BUT in my case they did help which I attribute to the fact that a flat shoe is less likely to put your low back into excess lordosis.Disclaimers : These are worth every penny but you should definitely transition slowly if you don’t often walk barefoot. Biomechanically speaking they place much greater stretch and strength demand on your calves so you should assess your calf strength. I’m also about 135lbs so they might wear slower for me than someone who weighs more.

Good shoe.
They are very comfortable. When I am in the grocery store they squeak like I’m playing on a basket ball court. With that said the are really comfortable for my out door walks. Overall a good shoe.

Highly recommend! May consider sizing down (wide foot and still had plenty of room).
I have been using these for around 2 months now and am very happy with them. They’re my first zero-drop shoe. It certainly took some adjustment. I would recommend Googling how to transition to this style of shoe so you don’t injure yourself. But after a couple weeks, I feel great in them and prefer them in the gym. My main complain is that my heel tends to slip in and out of the shoe (no blisters though) during movements like planks, mountain climbers, and similar. I think I could have sized down. I’m a wide and ordered my normal shoe size. When I reorder, I will order one size smaller and see if that’s better. Overall, they’re great for the low cost!

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.

My husband asked me to order these in size 12 wide and he loves them. He has a bunion on his right foot so it makes it easier for him to walk in shoes that are wider but still fit perfectly to the size..He also said they’re very comfy and it was a good purchase.
