WHITINMen's Cross-Trainer | Barefoot & Minimalist Shoe | Zero Drop Sole | Wide Toe Box

These are great quality shoes. However, take note of some features; These seem to be designed with no socks in mind or really thin/ compression socks ( i need more options). They rely on non adjustable elastic laces (i desire them tighter for no foot slip). There is no room for splaying of toes ( i have Flintstone feet, wide and flat). No shoe tongue, narrow opening (i assume for the no sock idea) made trying them on a mild challenge. Other than these features that don't work for me, a quality, breathable, washable, comfortable product.

I've only used these shoes at the gym and they do their job. They got a good sole with a great grip. The toe box is wide enough for my feet that have normal wide. I wish the inner sole had less support for the arc and that it was thinner at the heel. The shoes feel better on my feet when I take out the inner soles. I would give five stars if the inner sole was flat and did not have arc support, and if the shoes were a bit lighter. But for the price they are pretty good!

I am not a person who collects shoes. I HATE wearing socks and shoes. I would go barefoot everywhere if I could. However, that is simply not an option. I had always assumed that I was just weird and I was okay with that, but then I found these shoes.The main reason that I hate wearing socks and shoes is that I cannot feel the ground. I am a clumsy oaf and I trip over my own feet when I where shoes. Not these shoes! These shoes still feel like shoes in that they protect my feet from the scalding asphalt and sharp rocks, but they are fit my feet so well that they don't feel clunky like all other footwear. The sole is constructed in such a way that I can feel the ground. Due to that factor, I can wear these shoes on smooth surfaces without feeling like I am going to slip or trip. Usually, the first thing I do when I get home is kick off my shoes and socks so that I am more comfortable and can move more confidently, but I don't have to do that with these shoes. This is the first pair of shoes that I have ever owned that I can confidently and comfortably wear. I can even where them in my house!

This is a great shoe and the wide toe box allowed for me not to have to buy a size up so that my toes wouldn’t squish. The shoe is very comfortable for me, but I’m not sure how it’d feel for those with a higher arch. The runner looks a little funky for my taste but it works good for it’s purpose for sure.

I'll try to make this quickI got these shoes to see how I'd feel about the barefoot feelingAnd they feel great. I wear them all the time, inside and out.I will say, I'm an 8.5, and ordered such, and these are a tiny bit too big on me in terms of length. But they do feel rather small in terms of the size of the toe box. They feel very similar to my New Balance trail running shoes in the toe area.2.5 hour hiking trips really helped my feet get used to these shoesAlthough, if you are unable to walk a lot on dirt with these shoes to start off. TAKE IT SLOW. Do not injure your self by transitioning too fast. I'm able to walk just fine on any surface for extended periods at this pointI have been heavily slowed down when I wear these on the coast on my hikes because of how rocky it is, the rocks do hurt my feet some. Although it is getting better and better with the more my feet grow strongerThese shoes are incredibly grippy. The only time it isn't grippy for me is when I'm inside and the tile floor is wet. But wet rocks, logs, dirt, mud, all of those I feel more confident walking on and in with these shoes than my New Balance trail running shoes that cost me $140.I have noticed a better and more responsive connection to whatever I'm doing when I'm wearing these compared to my other shoes. In a very good way it makes me want to jump on things more, and just explore more. It could just be placebo, I have no idea. But it is there for me. I have noticed my legs get stronger than they already are(I bike a lot, so I have strong legs), especially with balance and the ability to go onto my knees from a standing position.If you want to get into barefoot shoes for a good price, this is a good option. If you get the white shoes. They are blindingly bright when you first get them. Once mine got a little dirty, I liked them a lot more.

I bought these shoes over a month ago, but wanted to give them some time before reviewing. Overall, I'm very happy with them. I wear them all day every day, and they are VERY light and comfortable. As my title states, to me they feel just like water shoes with laces, which I did not expect. The fit is good; snug on all sides so my feet don't move around, and plenty of room in the toe box. They look pretty good as well. I wear them to the gym and out walking, and they are great for those activities. I've tried running in them, but that is a no-go for me, as they are just way too thin for that and they have VERY little cushioning so you feel EVERY rock, etc. under your feet. For reference, I'm 6ft tall and 195 lbs, so maybe someone smaller and lighter would be able to run in these.

I went ahead and cut the sides of the molding and do use the lacing. For me the lacing design doesn’t provide anything for fit just makes you have to tie laces. It has stitching holding it to the sides so if it starts to fill up when gravel or dirt I will probably unstitch it but I want to see how it does for now. Switching to barefoot style shows have have fixed my pronation of my feet and will be experimenting with other shoe designs. I was walking on the outsides of feet and $200 pairs of shoes would be worn in less than 100 miles of walking. Tried these because they were cheap and have ended up buying 2 more pairs for casual outings and work days.

Wondering if they have a water proof version 🤔

Great shoes, exceeded expectations. Only wish they had wider sizes but I knew that going in

La talla fue la exacta, medí mi pie y agregué los centímetros que indicaron así que funcionó perfectamente.Tengo un tiempo acostumbrándome a zaparos planos, como los Converse, por lo que estos se sintieron extremadamente cómodos, usando la plantilla (viene una plantilla que no es nada gruesa).Posteriormente los usaré son la plantilla para que sean literalmente barefoot.De todos los zapatos minimalistas, son los que mejor precio tienen (y súper cómodos).Así que buena calidad y comodidad para el precio que tienen.Además llegaron antes de la fecha que decía al principio.

These are great feeling shoes, but they do fit small. I'm an 11.5-12, got the 12 and they are still a bit snug.Also, the bull tab in the back is more decorative than functional as they will rip off easily.

These don't have a wide toe box at all. You really need to look at the shoe profile on the whitin products before purchasing because some of their shoes are great and some, like these, are way too tight.
