I run or walk in them for at least an hour every day and they last a full year - longer if I don't mind a hole or two. I'm on my third pair. They protect my feet and are comfortable, and wearing them has eliminated all the foot pain I used to have. And they cost a lot less than expensive running shoes!!! Review: Absolutely loving these shoes!! - I'm in my mid 50's and I've had several issues with my feet, like occasional plantar fasciitis and minor bunions. I was convinced that the only shoes I'd ever be able to wear again, would be the super cushioned, orthopedic kind. I was very skeptical about trying minimalist shoes because of that. However, I'm extremely happy that I took a chance on these Whitin minimalist shoes! I've learned that I don't really need more shoe. I just need shoes that allow my feet to function naturally. I normally wear a size 10 and have a fairly narrow foot. I've been ordering wide shoes just to get extra room in the toe box, for comfort and for dealing with bunions. The size 10 (41) fits me perfectly and allows plenty of room for my toes to spread out comfortably. The fabric is super stretchy for comfort as well. The heel area is soft and stays securely in place. They are easy to slip on and off. These shoes were extremely comfortable from the second that I put them on and they only got better with daily wearing. And after over a month of daily use, I'm not seeing any signs of wear and tear on the shoes. So I'm fairly certain that they will hold up well. They literally feel like I'm walking barefoot (which I used to do all of the time, but no longer can, due to my age and age related foot issues). I don't even wear socks with them because they fit so well! I highly recommend them! Update: I've gotten them disgustingly dirty on several occasions now (grass stains, mud, grease) and they clean up, almost as good as new, every time...with just a little soap and hot water. They dry quickly and don't get smelly. The removable insole is yellow and it remains dirty looking, even after cleaning...but nobody, besides myself, sees that part. 🤷‍♀️ ## Features - Zero-drop, non-elevated sole for proper posture and balance - Adjustable hook-and-loop closure at instep for a more secure fit - Removable sockliner (insole) if you want a "more barefoot" feeling - A Wide toe box is flexible enough to let your feet bend, move, and flex the way - SIZE ATTENTION: True to size! If between size, order next size down for snug fit or order next size up for comfort fit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Closure type | Hook & Loop | | Inner material | Foam, Rubber | | Outer material | Elastic fabric | | Sole material | Rubber | ## Images ![Women's Minimalist Barefoot Trail Running Shoes | Wide Toe Box - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81rO7CV9V2S.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: can you run on concrete with these?** A: I run a lot of 5ks and rran both a hilly 10 miler and 6 miler in them as well as hiked Mt Major in NH...they are excellent...I've had no issues whatsoever...some women behind me in the 10 miler talked loudly about how stupid I was to run in them...I seriously got them for running as I'm training for Marine corps marathon next month...now that I know I can machine wash them...I find them to be my perfect shoes...byebye sneakers **Q: Does the chemical smell go away? Did anyone get a pair that did not stink? These shoes are comfortable but I can’t wear them due to the smell.** A: Mine smell so bad, I can't wear them. I am trying to find out how to get rid of the smell so I can wear them. I love the feel of the shoe, but won't wear until I can get rid of the offensive smell--it makes me nauseous. **Q: What is the heal to toe drop?** A: Pretty close to zero. There is no additional layers in the heal part of the sole. Hist a slight amount of padding from the inner sole, which is removable if you really want that "barefoot" feel. You can really feel everything when you are wearing these. **Q: I wear a 6 in street shoes and a 6.5 in athletic shoes. Those don’t appear to come in smaller half sizes. Wondering what size to buy.** A: I wear a size 10 for one foot and a 9 for the other foot. I wear a wrap on the size 10 foot. I got a size 10 and they stretched enough to work for the size 10 foot WITH the brace on. They tighten enough to work for the size 9 foot so they aren't too loose. These shoes stretch, they are not ridged. I love them so, use your best judgment and if they don't work return them for the other size. I might add, I wear these barefoot except for the wrap on one foot, no socks. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great shoes *by L***C on January 5, 2026* Love these shoes.

I was having some back discomfort when walking with my old favorite shoes (Sketchers). Walking on sidewalks they would wear unevenly probably due to the way I walk. I bought a pair of Hike barefoot shoes which I liked but they just didn’t feel very substantial. I tried the WHITIN barefoot trail running shoes and they were just what I needed. I have walking in them daily now for several weeks with no issues. They are comfortable with or without socks and I won’t hesitate to buy this brand again when I need to replace them (or if they have a new cute style lol). ## Frequently Bought Together - WHITIN Women's Barefoot & Minimalist Shoe | Zero Drop Sole | Trail Runner - Joomra Women's Minimalist Trail Running Barefoot Shoes | Wide Toe Box | Zero Drop - WHITIN Men's Minimalist Trail Runner | Wide Toe Box | Barefoot Inspired --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/172252886-womens-minimalist-barefoot-trail-running-shoes-wide-toe-box](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/172252886-womens-minimalist-barefoot-trail-running-shoes-wide-toe-box) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
