Surprisingly good!
Always on the lookout for new kitchen shoes that are black, nonslip, easily cleaned, and prevent foot/ankle pain. I wear Vivo's for training and daily wear so I was hoping to find a good nonslip barefoot style shoe. The reviews on these were mixed but, so far they are a win. I normally wear a 42 but I ordered a 43 (not sure why...). They fit perfect! Wore them through a 10 hour shift in the kitchen and the nonslip was great. I have never worn a barefoot style for work so I am curious to see how I will feel after extended use. Given the low price point, I am not expecting them to last more than a few months before the tread wears out.

Clown Shoes
What drew me to these is the extra-wide fit. My feet are wider than most, so finding footwear in 4-E can be tough. They are comfortable and don’t squeeze my dogs at all. There could be more padding on the sole, but inserts are easy to come by. I love the color and material. The grey laces even blend in nicely. All that being said, they look like clown shoes. The pictures in the ad disguise how noticeably the front bows out. I look down and feel like Ronald McDonald:( Had to deduct a couple of stars for that

Great Zero Drop Shoe
These shoes are exactly what I was looking for. Most zero-drop shoes look like they are for working out or trail running. That makes them functional, but not always appropriate for certain settings.These shoes cross both criteria. By resembling a casual dress shoe, but maintaining the zero drop and wide toe box- these shoes allow me to wear comfort with style. These are zero drop so there is no arch support- build the muscles in your feet and allow yourself to reach full potential!

Most comfortable shoe ever
I had been wearing the canvas type of the same style for a couple years, but I needed shoes that could be polished for work. These aren't leather, but they pass and I'm over the moon that these are being offered. The wide toe box means I will not be distracted from work by bunion pain, and they offer a professional look. The soles do wear down with constant use and you can feel increasingly over time every pebble underneath, but they are after all barefoot shoes. I find $39 affordable when it's time to replace them. If you enjoy or don't mind feeling everything under your feet while being cushioned and find the wide toe box helpful, these may be for you.

A bit big
I really like these but, am going to have to return. My suggested and purchased size was a W10.5/M8.5. My measurements are 26.8cm long and 10.5cm wide at my moderate bunion, using the tracing method. Average arches. These fit BEATIFULLY in the width but, the fit is too long for the listed sizing. It's about 2 finger widths and I prefer 1 finger width. I am ALWAYS an 11 or 11.5 Wide in barefoot-style shoes and these are listed as a women's 10.5. The only option in these right now for downsizing is a full size and I think that will be too small. Otherwise, they seem comfortable and nothing seems to rub weird. The faux leather finish is smooth and the stitching is solid. I think they'd fit well for anyone with average to high arches but, would be too high volume for someone with low arches. They seem to be a great value for the $$. As I'm returning, I can't speak to their comfort after wearing for extended periods.

Only a few month falling apart
I've had these for only a few months. Got them in April and it's June now and one show is coming apart at the seam as you can see in the photo. Bummer too because I fine them to be quite comfortable.

Good minimalist shoe
Wow…these shoes are even uglier than my Lems. Good thing I’m past my fashionista stage and now into anatomically correct-wear. These are true barefoot shoes - minimal (no) support, very lightweight, zero drop…really reminds me of the original Vivobarefoot shoes, but at 1/4 cost and before Vivo shoes started getting narrower in the toebox so as to become more popular among the mainstream. The Hobibear toebox is very wide. My toes are swimming in them but it fits just right around the midfoot and heel, the way a good barefoot shoe should. Bought same size as my Lems, but these feel a little bit shorter. Even though these are likey Chinese knockoffs, I like these shoes a lot especially compared to $130-$180 minimalist shoes.

Llegaron antes de tiempo y cumplen con lo que menciona
La talla viene correcta, y vienen bien protegidos. Tienen la puntera ancha y sin caída, el modelo fue de mi agrado, compraría otros. Yo pedí 2 modelos y los dos cumplen con las expectativas que tenía. Se ven de buena calidad.
