Review: Cheap, good, roomy-toebox shoe for athletics and everyday wear - As comfortable as my old Altra Lone Peaks, one-fourth the price, as well as hopefully an unchanging model for years to come. Replaced my old (depleted) stock of New Balance Minimus 10v1 — the shoes aren't directly comparable, but as someone with a strong preference for those now-discontinued runners, these sufficed. Ran a half-marathon on a forest trail with no training in months and no break-in time for the shoes. No blisters. Lack of cushioning means the rocks and roots are noticeable, but I prefer that (teaches mindfulness about where to land the foot). Have since also used for yard work, basketball, walks, and everyday wear. Not exceedingly stylish, but neither am I. Too soon to speak to durability, but the price point and performance have me unworried as long as I can get six months of heavy use on asphalt, concrete, dirt, and grass. The velcro is nice, especially for running. Easier to get a perfect fit without too much pressure on the top bones of my feet. Will probably stockpile half a dozen pairs once this pair proves to last six months at my activity level and environment. Update six months in: Have held up ~250 miles trail running; uncounted miles on asphalt and grass; heavy sprinting, jumping, cutting on concrete while playing basketball; and weightlifting. Never had any issues, even though the size is slightly bigger than I may need — no sliding inside, yet also very low pressure applied to top of foot. No odor, but I wear an athletic wool blend sock which I credit for that. Beginning to see wear on the sole under the heel, as I do with all my minimalist shoes. Overall I'd say this sole has exceeded my expectations for durability given my time and motions on concrete and asphalt. Will purchase more. Hope build quality is consistent. Update at 9 months: Ordering a second pair. Will update later as to whether build is similar between what should be identical items. If consistent, I'll probably buy a half-dozen because this shoe meets my expectations for a good shoe at an excellent price. Update at 16 months: Insoles of first pair degraded and left a yellow gunk that attached all-too-readily to my polyester-wool socks. Whitin sells replacement insoles but these are not the same type or feel as the originals. Have not found a good insole replacement to replicate exact feel. External sole on first pair is fine after much use. Second pair was approximately of the same build and quality of first pair. Lately have used second pair at 25% incline, 2-3mph on treadmill, or 15% incline up to 5mph. That's a new use case, just as serviceable. The top bones of my feet remain finicky with minimal pressure, so the velcro is still much appreciated to reduce pressure. If I can find a suitable insole replacement (many fine brands, styles exist; but I want the precise match), then I will buy a third pair or more.
Review: It feels like walking barefoot in my new shoes. - This is the first time purchasing this type of shoes. I was impressed with the design of the shoes and the quality. They look great on my feet and fit like a glove on my feet. They are light and I’m happy with the wide toe box. I can hardly wait to go on my first hike in them. The price was right too. I will recommend them to my friends.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How are these for hiking? Did anyone try any hiking or camping with these?**
A: I used this hiking on a trail that had lots of rocks! Sand, small, medium to large size rocks along the trail. A lot of uneven parts and the even some mild sharp rocks. Breezed through it like a champ! Felt so nimble and had no issues.

**Q: Are these good for road running as well?**
A: They hold up super well due to the durable rubber outsole. These shoes are great for anything from trail running to running on the street.

**Q: Would these be good for working a 12 hour shift in a warehouse everyday?**
A: I work 10-12 hrs/day. I put in another insole to keep my feet comfortable. I've never seen wide toed shoes like this before. The wide toed style makes me happy.

**Q: hola buenos dia cual es el costo real de los zapatos y cuanto seria el costo de envio a venezuela**
A: The question this user asked is: “Hello, good morning, what is the real cost of the shoes and how much would the shipping cost to Venezuela be?” Unfortunately, I don’t have an answer but perhaps now that it’s translated someone can help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent shoes at the $30-$40 price range
*by J***D on May 31, 2025*

Love these shoes for the price point. I can always find someone to pick about with shoes, so don't let the minus 1 start fool you I picked up my 1st pair of Whitin's just over a year ago and I still wear them. Just before that I started with another even cheaper version from another manufacturer. For the price point, I didn't know if you can get better, but yes you can get better. Pros: • durable enough to wear daily for a year+ and not wear out • inexpensive • very comfortable • true to size • all the normal barefoot benefits Cons: • they come with a minimally raised heel insole, hence not true zero drop, but close. Regardless, I prefer thinner and zero drop, so I take them out and put in a cheap pair of cotton or other barefoot style insole. I really wish they would come up with a version with thinner zero drop insoles, as it would probably save them and me money. • I'd love to see a puncture proof sole. I've never puncture these yet, but I am confident they're not puncture proof. • I would love it if they improved the inner lining beneath the insole. I often would just like to have no insole at all, but the stitching and materials inside, while useable, are clearly not intended for this purpose, leaving room for improvement. All in all, I would and have recommended these to many. For this price, you should say least try out barefoot shoes, and the "beginner insoles" they come with might be a pro for you if you're new to this style. I've purchased 4 total now, when I find them on sale for even better price points, 1 for my wife 1 for keeping a clean pair, and for when I wear out my original pair. I will buy again, but I also may look for an upgrade to these if they don't have newer options when my next time for replacement comes.
