Great for people who like the look of dunks but have wide feet. They are very comfortable and have a more structured feel compared to other barefoot shoes. The heel has 1995 embroidered onto it. Great detail but it is hidden from the pictures. I had ordered the 39 but returned for a 40. Exchanging was quick and easy thanks to the insurance. I would recommend these to everybody.
Seeing these online, I had to have them. They are very pleasing to the eye. But after receiving them I noticed that they arent very wide. Theyre super stiff, and just all around uncomfortable. Ive tried breaking them in several times, and im bummed because of the price point being so high. Im not totally giving up on them yet. But compared to the barebarics Zing, I would go with the all leather zings. Those are more flexible. Wider. More comfortable. And still cute.
So beautiful and comfortable
When I received the shoes, I initially thought they were too big (23.5 cm foot length, ordered size 38) and too stiff, but they quickly softened up, and adjusting the lacing keeps them securely on my feet. They are super comfortable (probably the roomiest fitting shoes I have - even with correct toes), even though they are still a bit stiff. The chunky sneaker look is a nice contrast to the “socks with soles” look of many barefoot shoes. I removed one star because the logos are falling off. I first only wore the shoes in the house for a few hours to decide if I wanted to keep them. After that time, and very gentle use, one of the logos on the laces had halfway ripped off (from sitting on it?). I removed the other one for symmetry. Today, after only a few days of wear, a part of the logo on the tongue peeled off (see photo of the shoes with the bits that came off). None of this particularly bothers me, but I am a bit concerned that the shoes won’t age well - which would be a shame at the price. It would also probably have been an issue had I wanted to return them.
I love the way these LOOK!
I have been doing the barefoot shoe thing for about TWO years now… and these are the FIRST barefoot shoes I have ever gotten compliments on… and I have received several every time I have worn them!! I got the white & black ones.
They are MUCH stiffer than any other barefoot shoes I have worn and I have MANY. (Always looking for the perfect shoe & fit!)
I very carefully measured my feet and followed Anya’s fit guidelines. A 39 fits great. My feet are VERY VERY low volume and narrow. I had to put a North Sole insole in these (the thicker of the 2)- best insoles EVER!! I have to put insoles (usually North Sole) in just about ALL my shoes.
These shoes do RUB on the heel. I have been wearing them a little each day with thick TOE SOCKS (the thickest injinji). On Day 3 and they felt close to being broken in today! I really like them! Read Anya’s Reviews, and read the Fit Guide and be prepared for compliments!
