Oranginer Men's Barefoot Shoes - Big Toe Box - Minimalist Cross Training Shoes for Men

All of the great benefits of barefoot movement with enough protection from sharp stones. I have been searching for the perfect zero drop hiking shoe for summer. As a heavier hiker I need a thicker sole to protect my feet from being bruised by stones. I also have an ankle instability on one side which can cause my foot to supinate heavily and soft soled shoes amplify this making walking painful over time and dangerous on uneven ground. Most barefoot style shoes have very thin soles with loads of ground feel, great for the instability but really not a good idea for a heavy person as we do need a bit more cushion and shock absorption on hard ground. So I was pretty happy to find these. They feel great. Fit is snug but comfortable. I can walk comfortably over large gravel and other surfaces.I have taken them out on a few walks now and in water and out, dirt trails, steep rocky slopes and they performed so well. No slipping and moving on my feet even when wet. Good traction on steep terrain. Fit is true to size. I prefer men's shoes for hiking so I ordered the men's 8.5 which is what I usually wear. My toes have just enough space without a lot of extra to trip me up.

These Oranginer barefoot shoes have completely transformed my workouts! As someone who values minimalist footwear, I was thrilled to find a pair that delivers on both comfort and functionality.Pros:Wide Toe Box: The generous toe box allows my toes to splay naturally, which promotes better balance and stability during exercises. It's a noticeable difference compared to traditional shoes.Minimalist Design: The lightweight and flexible design of these shoes allows me to feel the ground beneath my feet, enhancing my proprioception and connection to my movements.Versatility: Whether I'm doing weightlifting, agility drills, or light cardio, these shoes perform exceptionally well. They provide just the right amount of support and protection while still allowing for natural movement.Durability: I've put these shoes through some tough workouts, and they've held up remarkably well. The materials are high-quality and seem built to last.Ground Feel: The thin sole provides excellent ground feel, allowing me to feel the terrain and make necessary adjustments for optimal performance.Cons:Sizing: They do run a bit small, so I recommend ordering a half size up for the perfect fit.Minimalist Transition: If you're new to minimalist footwear, there might be a slight adjustment period as your feet adapt to the more natural movement.Overall:I highly recommend the Oranginer Men's Barefoot Shoes to anyone seeking a minimalist footwear option for cross-training. They offer a comfortable, versatile, and durable solution that enhances your workout experience. While there's a slight learning curve for those transitioning to minimalist shoes, the benefits are well worth it. My feet feel healthier, my workouts feel more natural, and I'm simply enjoying the freedom of movement that these shoes provide.

Pick your color carefully! I looked at the pictures of the lighter colored shoes to see the finer details of the mesh pattern on the shoes, and ultimately picked the black pair.Upon delivery, I found that the black pair is actually a water shoe. They do not have the breather holes in the upper...just solid neoprene type material like you'd see on a water shoe.I didn't want to go through the whole return process, and I needed to get to the gym.Surprisingly, my feet weren't a sopping mess by the time I was done! Even after I rode the motorcycle to the gym in the Florida heat. Very surprising. I'm sure the nice cotton socks had a lot to do with that, though.Super comfortable shoes. Ran a mile on the treadmill after my workout, and no discomfort there. My feet definitely felt the run in a different way, though. Sorta feels like my feet got a bit of a workout as well, which is what I was after with this type of shoe.We'll see how they hold up. Next time, I'd definitely get one of the other pairs with the breather holes. Also, the black pair doesn't have the quick tie system. FYI

They are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I ever owned and priced right too! The way they are shaped doesnt squeeze your toes into the shoe. I wouldnt do any running or working out with them. more for around the house word or leisure. good for fishing too :)

When I got these I wanted to like them. The sole is thick and they have more padding than I expected. They seem much better built than what I would expect for the price HOWEVER after trying them on, they make me over-pronate more than any shoe I have ever tried. Over-pronating wasn’t even on my radar but these make my foot roll inward heavily. Aside from that, I’m not wild about the look of the toe, but really this review is about how they feel when walking. I have never done more than try them on and, unfortunately, I will never wear them. It was a waste of money for me.

Amo mis Oranginer, sobre todo en este color son muy cómodos para caminar, al tener una suela flexible dan bastante retroalimentación sobre el suelo a los pies, la parte frontal del zapato es anda y permite que los dedos de los pies tengan espacio evitando la formación de juanetes y la atrofia progresiva de los dedos del pie. Tengo otros zapatos descalzos pero estos son mis favoritos.

Great

Great quality and super comfy. My first pair I was a bit worried but the reviews are going on here and it looks decent so I ordered and am very happy. The shoe is tough and well made. Good inner shoe and feels awesome right away for me. I have high arches and am getting aches and pains in areas that I believe is from shoes and arch support so I am going minimalist to see if I get some positive results. Regardless these are great barefoot shoes and a great price. I would do competitions in them. Would buy more and recommend. Thank you seller and all involved in my purchase. Blessings.

I walk a lot and have very delicate skin. That leads to pressure sore regularly. In these shoes, and that is again very subjective, I have no pressure sore. 20K steps and feet are all good. Same with my lower back pain, which I used to have after long walks. I have 2 pairs, using 1 pair for jogging and just love them. The quality is not exceptional but as well not completely lower-end. Sizewise, you definitely need to order 1 size smaller pair. I have 9.5UK and Size 8 fits perfectly.

Die Schuhe die ich bekommen habe sehen farblich nicht aus wie auf dem Bild außerdem sind die klebenähte mangelhaft sodass sie schon aufreißen
