Review: Great shoe for the bucks - Shoes were what i expected. Comfortable. True to size and are wide enough in the toe box which is a plus for me. Kind of a cheap shoe but worth the $40. Great for slipping on and off. Good beat around shoe. Kind of cool looking too with all the different designs and colors. Will probably buy more.
Review: Feel the breeze! Phenomenal shoes! Great value Couldn’t resist a second pair to keep clean. - You can truly feel the breeze through these shoes with average to thin socks. I love it. My feet are always hot and sweaty. Which Segways into my only minor issue with the shoes. And to their credit, I believe my sweaty feet wear out MOST insoles more rapidly than other folks feet. lol! Also I think the insoles are designed to let you feel the ground after they’re “broken-in”, which is what I want. And they are available for replacement for like $2.99, so I’m not complaining. Just informing. The rest of this long review is all positive. The insoles are my only small con, see the last photo. They halfway wore out in 3 months of extremely heavy use. So maybe it’s almost a feature and not a flaw. You want to feel the ground? Keep your insoles. Don’t mind feeling it or not? Buy replacements. I’ll keep mine till they fall apart. These shoes have acted as my one and only pair of shoes. I mean no other shoes used at all except slides occasionally for convenience. Any time I actually want to move around or walk/run efficiently, these shoes and only these are worn. I can stop on a dime/turn on a dime oh so comfortably. I’ve been working and exercising both indoors/outdoors alike, and enjoying leisure, day in and day out in these shoes. This is my second pair! I wish the grey was darker but who cares. They are THAT good. The other ones are still great. I’ve just dedicated them to the work at the construction site and the outdoors. Because they are SO MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE than work boots(obviously). I love sneaking around(OSHA) in them on the job site. Another worker was walking by and my feet were at his eye-level. In passing, he poked my big toe and laughed! Lmbo. You’re technically supposed to wear puncture resistant, steel toed boots. But I’ve been doing end stage HVAC construction so it’s easy to stay safe. Just watch out for occasional nails and metal shards. I bet I’m more comfortable in my actual physical shoes than anyone else there! I wouldn't even call this a gripe, because I’m keeping them. But the “dark grey” color is not dark. I’m tempted to return them and get black with gum sole, but I don’t like gum soles so I think I’ll keep them. They look great. Love the black strings and blue accent design on the sides. Such a great pair of shoes for the price. Even if they did cost more from what I can tell, they’d be worth it. Perhaps I’ll review again or update how long they last. [desertcart prompted to review the “slipperiness”] They aren’t slippery at all to me! A 26 year old, average weight male. I went from Addidas with a sole smooth as butter! I would slip as soon as there was enough rain to coat the bottom of my shoes. So immediately after it started raining. These have phenomenal grip. I use them for every day use rain or shine. They have also performed wonderfully on my trail hikes here and there as well! I love feeling the rocks, and tree roots beneath my feet. You’ll even feel the subtle crunch of leaves and pine straw beneath your feet. They fit great too. No surprise. I have worn US size 11 in men’s for all my tennis shoes since I was a teen. I didn’t check a conversion chart or anything. Just ordered 11s and they fit exactly as I would hope. Couldn’t be happier.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What exactly is a zero drop running shoe?**
A: A zero drop running shoe has the same amount of material beneath the foot at both the heel and toe of the shoe. There is no angle. They are designed to support a more natural running gait and discourage heel striking.

**Q: I am used to Vibrams, but this year their sizes all run small, so my size 9 foot would be a size 10 shoe. So this is size 8?**
A: I bought size 10, same as my foot size. Some shoes I need to buy 10.5. But for this I kept the same size(10) and fits perfect.

**Q: I wear a 10.5 men but there's no selection**
A: I bought a size 10 due to this comment even though my feet are 10.5. The shoes did not fit me with any space around the toes. I would recommend getting size 11 despite this comment.

**Q: Is the sole hard enough to trail run? I’m looking for a cheap vibram sole alternative.**
A: If you’re talking about over rocks, the sole will probably be too flexible for running. Dirt trails and boulders should be just fine. The sole is just really flexible so you’d have to take terrain into account.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great minimalist Shoe
*by S***D on July 7, 2021*

I have looked at minimalist shoes for years and just could not convince myself to spend between hundred and two hundred dollars. Then I found "Whitin", looking at the shoe and seeing the reviews maybe for the price this is good quality. But then again, the price was a third of those brand name shoes that received far lower reviews than Whitin's. Which surprised me, how can the quality be better but cost loss? Well, I took the plunge purchased a pair in May 2021 and fell in love with them. I wear them everyday, they are the only shoe I want to wear. If I could get away with it, I would wear at work. However, last time I looked they don't make these in steel toes. I wondered how they would hold up on rocky areas since here in Tennessee we have a lot of rock. If you ever walked on small pieces of granite rock bare foot or with a thin shoe you would how punishing these rocks can be. Not to say that river rock is not hard on your feet but granite has sharp edges that can give even a good hiking boot a fit. Well, I am here to say that these shoes can handle these rocks and with comfort. Don't get me wrong, you know the rocks are there but you don't have that sharp pain from the rock digging into your foot. These shoes are tuff wearing them for two months everyday has proven to me that these shoes are worth ever penny I spend on them. The bonus is, they are a third of the cost of the big name brands. Now, you may be wondering why I only gave the shoes four stars. Well, the only reason is, the rear heel strap broke. Putting the shoe on and pulling the heel end on it just broke. I would have just kept wearing the shoes but I know Amazon has a great return policy and I love these shoes so much that I wanted another pair. In these last four days it has been hard not having my Whitin's and having to wear my running shoes again has hurt. Yes, that is how much I love this shoe. Oh, by the way, I have bought extra pairs now to allow me the comfort of not only different colors but if I have another shoe fail I will have backups. Side note: If you are a runner yes, they work great once you learn to run on the ball of your foot and not the heel as you would with standard running shoes. Even running trails in these shoes is not a problems. Size maybe an issue if you don't like to wear socks, I wear a size 10 but they are a little loose without socks.
