SAGUARO Womens Mens Barefoot Shoes Minimalist Trail Runner Wide Toe Box Zero Drop Outdoor Cross Training Shoe

Finally! After trying multiple brands from high end to low end, I found the perfect barefoot shoe for me. Fit: All my shoes are size 9. For this barefoot shoe I ordered a size 9.5 and it fits great! It's roomy without being snug (for reference my feet are on the slightly narrow side of medium) Comfort: I wear these everyday (when I'm not actually barefoot). My feet are trashed from years in martial arts. A number of my toes have been broken; I have Morton's neuroma in both feet and have trouble with the base of my toes going numb in regular tennis shoes; I also have issues with plantar fasciitis that can flare up in regular shoes. My feet do not hurt in these shoes. I don't like to wear shoes or socks because they make me feel hot. These shoes are breathable enough to wear without socks. But I can fit a thin pair of socks in them for colder weather. The soles are flexible. The shoes are lightweight. The soles are not slippery. I have no issues on slick floors or rainy sidewalks. They are easy to get on and off. They are worth every penny. I like these so much I'm buying a second pair in another color.

Wow! I can't believe how long I hesitated to try barefoot shoes, but now I'm really glad I did. I'm 55-years-old, and I've been pretty sedentary most of my life. I've spent the better part of the last six months recovering from a pretty bad foot sprain after a fall last July. In that process I learned that I fell not because of weak ankles as I thought, but because of WEAK FEET! In researching solutions I found exercises that are working to improve my foot mobility and strength, and everyone promoting those exercises recommended barefoot shoes. Saguaro was actually recommended by one fitness expert who was rating different brands, and this pair was reasonably priced so I figured it was a good place to start. I think I worried most about whether or not my feet would be adequately protected, and if I would have adequate traction (a contributing factor in my fall in July). I wore these this morning on a short, easy hike (two miles) to test them out and I am blown away by how comfortable they are, how much easier it was for me to maintain my footing in tricky spots on the trail, and how my feet feel like I've worked muscles in them that have been long forgotten since childhood -- because they were! I also found it was easier for me to maintain my balance than in my hiking boots or athletic shoes, because my toes were free to move freely and do their job! The shoes made my hike easier, and the only reason why I only went two miles was because of time. I was also pleasantly surprised that virtually no sand got in the shoes during my walk. They breathe, and while it was weird at first wearing them without socks, my feet did not sweat at all. The soles adequately protected my feet, while allowing feedback from the earth. I'm curious about how long they'll last. I typically take two to three short hikes (2 to 4 miles) a couple of times a week. I'll try to update on how well the shoes hold up by the end of Spring.

These are the most comfortable shoes I own! I'm new to barefoot minamalist shoes, but I've worn Converse Chuck Taylor's for years, so I'm used to flat, thin soles. These are stretchy, but sturdy. Great for hiking the trails, but the stretchy material allows for the slightest sliding around of your foot inside the shoe, even when the drawstring is pulled tight, so they feel not too secure if walking inclide and downhill. If pulled too tight, the edge of the lace rubs the top of my foot and doesnt make them feel any more secure.. But for flat trails and everyday wear, they are amazing. I love that my toes can spread out and my pinkie toe isn't smashed whatsoever. As for sizing, I wear a men's 9/women's 11. The men's 9 felt great, very secure and fit like a dream, except that my big toe pushed a little too much at the front where the stretch material attaches to the sole. I was afraid over time it would cause the material to tear and my big toe to poke through, so I ordered the next size up before returning the first pair so that I could decide which one felt better. The bigger size was more comfortable in the toes, but my foot would slide inside ever so slightly if walking up or down an incline. I opted for the bigger size and just wear a thicker sock if I'm hiking or jogging. As you can see in the photos, the black on the toes wore off really fast, in just the first hour I wore them around the house. Infact both pairs wore in the same spot almost immediately, but otherwise I've been wearing them at work and for hiking now for a month straight and that's the only flaw thus far. No tearing or material pulling away from the sole. The eyelets have held up great, too I did get them wet at one point and they took unusually long to dry. I don't recommend them as a water shoe if you're expecting them to dry quickly. Otherwise, I will definitelyly order a 2nd pair in the future. These are really great.

My husband loves these shoes. Wide toe box, zero drop, a great “ground feel” and they look nice. He wore them on a pretty intense hike with a variety of terrain; big boulders, loose rocks, dirt and some slippery rocks on the way back down. He had great traction and was very comfortable the entire way. Did end up with a little scuff/tear but that could have been from the rocks.

Loved the comfort & durability of this barefoot sneaker! The bright color is perfect for biking! But they have also been great casual shoes to travel in. Quick & Easy to put on & take off!

Love these. They are so comfortable that I bought another pair.

Quality looked ok, but was too small for me. I'd suggest order a size up.

this is shoe is not for any water related activity, it doesn't dry quickly and you have to dry it like any normal shoe by putting it in the sun for long time..not practical if you are in a trip and want a quick dry shoe for beach or surfing. i regret buying it.

Good product

The size was wrong the first time But they replaced them and fit perfectly - buy one size up
