Review: Great gym shoes, hold up wonderfully! - I've had these for nearly a year now and they have held up great! I only wear them in the gym so I don't worry about them degrading too much. My feet feel stronger and much more agile now that I've been going 'barefoot' while exercising. There was about a week of super mild discomfort while my body adjusted, but it was quickly overtaken by new PRs and much better performance overall. My running mile time is down and my lifts are much stronger as my legs and core have adapted to stabilizing me instead of my shoes doing all the work. They're extremely light and thin so I can pack them in my gym bag easily. They wash pretty well too. I've put them through the laundry twice now and they don't show signs of exaggerated wear from it. My feet don't really sweat as much as they used to in my old cross-trainers so they never get too funky. Definitely like the modest price too. They're not so cheap as to be suspicious but not so expensive as to feel like a ripoff for being made of half the material of a normal shoe.
Review: My new favorite shoes! - I am in my 70s and have, in recent years, developed foot and knee pain. Visits to podiatrists only made my pain worse. Both podiatrists sold me expensive orthotics, which increased my knee pain so much that I could hardly walk. I told both podiatrists that I have no pain when I walk around barefoot, but they just brushed that off, saying that I should never go around barefoot because it will ruin my feet. When I started going barefoot more and more, and wearing bedroom slippers and flip-flops with no arch support, my pain virtually disappeared. The pain always came back, however, when I wore traditional brand-name athletic shoes. Eventually I discovered Xero barefoot shoes and ordered a pair. Each time I wore the Xero Shoes out walking I experienced less and less pain until, after about two weeks of wearing only these shoes, my foot and kneed pain completely disappeared. I now own four pairs of these shoes and plan to buy two more pairs, including their dress shoes. The wide toe box lets my toes spread out when I walk rather than be squeezed together, which feels much better. The zero-drop soles transfer much less force to my knees. The thin soles take some getting used to, especially when walking on concrete or asphalt sidewalks. Since the insoles are removable, I simply took them out, inserted flat cushion insoles, then put the original shoe insoles back in the shoes on top of the cushion insoles. This provides some cushioning but does not give any arch support or change the zero-drop feature of the shoes. I have since read that wearing traditional brand-name athletic shoes can eventually ruin one's feet and knees because the toes are squeezed together, the higher heels throws off the body's biomechanics, and the thick cushioning causes a person to develop weak arches. Now I only wear Xero Shoes. I realize that everyone is different, but if you have developed foot and knee pain while wearing traditional brand-name athletic shoes, you may want to give Xero shoes a try. But give them a couple of weeks to work their magic. Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great, but soles wear faster than expected
*by J***H on November 4, 2025*

Favorite shoe so far (just bought another pair), super comfortable, but do think the soles wear too fast. Got maybe 1000-1500 miles before they were blister factories, and their site does state like a 5k mile warranty so felt a little low on lifespan compared to brand marketing Otherwise pretty good, no forced arches or weird drop, almost like going barefoot. Gate is good when walking Fits well, maybe a touch cramped in toes. And pretty decent look for a barefoot shoe
