Review: Great value for the price! - So, where do I start I am on my feet for about 10 hours a day. I work on a assembly line and we do have a very nice mat that is under us which is about a 1/4 inch thick. But, we walk all day, with no sitting, so you are on your feet all day. I myself have a bit of a narrow foot I think, and for years, I mean, all of my life I have worn shoes that just tear my feet apart. That is mainly all shoes would give me a really bad callus on my big toes. I learned fast that I could not wear shoes with a lot of bells and whistles. I needed shoes flat. I found that flat shoes worked best for me. So for a long while now I have worn cheap chuck taylors from dollar general. But they would only last about 6 months. Needless to say, I could not find them in my area any more and even those would tear my toes apart on a long day. So, I tried another flat shoe form walmart, and again, they would tear up my toes. So, a lady I worked with had a pair of these, and I had been in the market for some and thought I would give them a try. So, I have worn them three days now and I will give my first impressions. My left shoe felt fine most of the time, but the right always seemed like there was something weird going on with the insert. I also felt a tightness around my arch and the top of my foot. I love the wide toe box, and no rubbing for my toes now, but the middle of the foot was a bit snug for me. Doing some research after buying these I found that you can take out the insole. Some say that these are not barefoot shoes, I think mainly because of the insole. The insole has a bit of a arch to it. So today, I took out the insole and replaced the insole with some flat rubber drawer liner I had laying around. I saw on the internet that some would use a yoga mat, but this is all I had. So, with that said, depending on if you want a arch or not, I would say get these and try them with the insoles that come with them, or maybe make your own. I want to be as close to the ground as possible, because I do want to feel like I am bare foot. I do wear thick wool socks most of the time too, so, that could have made them more snug in the center, but the insole still had a lot to do with it. So I wore them today for the first time with my homemade insole. So far so good. I will give them a real test this week at work. I just love the fact that my toes are not getting almost rubbed raw every day. All in all like any new shoes, there are some getting use to and a break in process. For me, the break in needs to happen in the top around the mid section and the arch area. I would recommend these to anyone who is wanting to get into barefoot shoes. For the price these would be a good transition shoe. As far as barefoot shoes go, I do not think I am going back to normal shoes. My toes can't take the punishment anymore, and I love the idea that my whole foot is working through out the day. So I encourage anyone to give these at try. The quality seems good. I will give more of a update later as I wear them longer.
Review: Good value for the price - These shoes have a comfortable no drop sole and fit as guided by the store was right on spot. They are light and comfortable and seem to be a good value for an affordable shoe. The manufacturing is good quality and should wash nicely when the time comes to clean them. I’ve walked several miles in them already and are good for day to day wear. The gum sole seems sturdy and should last.

*by S***Y on October 8, 2025*

Cheap, simple and comfortable. This item is in value category, it works well, looks good and is very cheap at the same time. Keep in mind this is shoe is tough on the feet, it has minimal cushion so unless you are ready to handle this type of shoes it may make your feet sore very quickly. Grip is very good, toe box is large - they are comfortable. One negative is that material facing the ground makes squeaking noise on most hard surfaces, no issues with pavement, asphalt, but indoors - it will be an issue. If you will be using these indoors most of the time - I advise you find another options, these are great for outdoors. It is a 4 start because of the noise they make on some surfaces - otherwise great value.
