WHITIN Men's Wide Barefoot Sneakers for Optimal Relaxation W81

I was looking for zero drop or barefoot shoes with a wide toe box to restore foot and toe mobility. These WHITIN shoes balance cushion and barefoot feel of the ground beneath you. What I like: 1) Comfortable and light feels great to walk on. 2) The reinforced lace holes provide stable and snug feel when laced up, but you can wiggle the toes have plenty of room. 3) Fabric is strong that I wear them in the gym. 4) The colors are deep and cool. In addition to white, I have gray and black which are my favorite casual shoes. 5) They are reasonably priced for the quality. 6) The non-slip gum soles prevent slipping that you may find with other lighter shoes that use foam soles. 7) These pack small so they don't take much room in a travel bag. 8) The fabric do not easily stain and stays fresh looking.

These were the first shoes I ever had that actually fit my too wide feet. Easily the most comfortable shoes I ever wore and they immediately addressed some pinch blisters I was struggling with. I've had them for almost two years now as daily drivers, and they held up very well. The tread is wearing away, but no holes formed and the threads/stitching have only showed some fraying. I've switched to more minimal sole Softstar shoes, and comparatively the WHITIN shoes soles are notably thicker, so they seem to be on the thicker end of barefoot shoes. But, I'd argue this makes them very good starter shoes in getting used to the feeling of barefoot shoes. You can also remove the insole for a thinenr sole, but for whatever reason this never felt right to me. Affordable and comfortable, these are a safe test in seeing if these kinds of shoes are for you. I believe they made my feet more prepared for the Softstars. My WHTINs still have life left in them so I'm happily saving them for the time when I need a more robust sole. They're great for yard work and the like. Just don't do anything with water or take these out into the rain, these shoes suck up water like a sponge. Also worth noting, the shoes squeak a lot on certain smooth floors. This squeaking eventually goes away as the soles are worn in.

These shoes are pretty great! I'm trying to transition into more barefoot shoes and these are a good affordable option to give that a shot. They are super comfortable, but lose one star because the tongues seem to be a little bit bigger which kind of start to dig into the tops of my feet. I've had to loop the laces under the tongues to prevent them from rubbing into my skin, which helps a lot with long term comfort but then curls the tongues in an awkward way. If the tongues were just a tad shorter, these would be the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. After walking in them and and wearing them regularly for a month now, I can definitely feel it in my calves but regular stretching is helping a lot. My toes definitely appreciate the wider toe box. It seemed like any time I tried on regular shoes to purchase none of them felt comfortable for me and my toes, especially my pinky toe, always felt so constrained. I have absolutely no problem with that with these shoes. I usually wear size 11 men's, and ordered these in 11 and fit perfectly.

I absolutely love these shoes! As a wide and tall footed human, these are truly the most comfortable shoe I have ever felt. And definitely the only shoe whose toe box has truly felt roomy enough for me. This far, after three weeks of fairly consistent wear, they have held up great with little evidence of the tread being worn down. I am anticipating them to hold up well.

I got these to help improve my balance. I am almost 65, and noticed that my balance was a little off. For the first few days of wearing them, I noticed that my legs would feel like they were starting to cramp while walking if the walking was a longer distance. I believe this was just the shoes making me use muscles that control your balance, that I had not been using because I was wearing more padded shoes. This went away in a few days and I do feel like my balance is better and I am more sure footed. The shoes feel like your walking in moccasins. I did order one size bigger then I normally wear and the fit was perfect. The material is thin on the inside but seems to be a sturdy canvas material on the outside. So I am careful how I put them on and off, always unlacing them to take off by hand and putting them on by hand and lacing them up. The sole inside feels like your getting a foot massage as you walk. Not sure how long they will last, but with care I hope to have them a while.

At first I love these shoes. Super comfy..good price. Easy to take on and off. However, the soles are not stitched to the rest of the shoe..they are simply glued which seems to come undone for me around the 6 month mark. Is it an issue of humidity or getting them wet? Why can't they just stich these? If you get them, do not get them wet and store them indoors in low humidity.

I purchased these for my son who is 6'3" and weighs about 300 pounds. He is very rough on shoes as he walks on the insides of his feet and typically rubs the bottom of the toes a lot. I bought them in September of 2025 and in June of 2026 there was a hole in the bottom. It has been a long time since a pair of shoes has lasted him that long. He goes for walks several times daily and walks on a gravel road. The shoes are wide enough for his feet and his toes actually fit flat as they should. He says they are comfortable and wants another pair. Very pleased to have finally found a daily shoe for him.

I've had these for almost 4 years. I have bought many more since these as I've really loved these shoes since these are my working shoes! I have put these shoes through the ringer to say the least! We are gutting our house and I have used them from everything inside to everything outside work related. I have done lumber work, busted sheetrock, put up sheetrock, tilled, mowed, moved rock, dug trenches, hauled dirt, soaked them, washed them, and repeat. They hold up to the washer and dryer. They look like they're falling apart, but truly they're so comfortable even still! The soles towards the toe can be super glued back and new insoles can be purchased if you're looking to stretch them. I am amazed at how they are just now looking like this. I have wore these things soooo much! I changed all my shoes over to barefoot/anatomical shoes and these have outbeat top brands. Plus the price point keeps me coming back. My whole family wears them, kids included. These shoes have fixed my husband's plantar fasciitis. He went to the chiropractor and got those expensive insoles and they only helped a little, but got worse over time. He wears nothing else now and is also sold on these. They hold up a long time and are the widest free range shoe I've had! Making them the most comfortable! I can't rave on these enough!

Caminar en ellos es muy cómodo y permiten que el pie se acomode perfectamente. La suela no es mullida, pero se siente casi como caminar descalzo y ese es el objetivo de este tipo de zapatos. Claro que si protege de piedras o texturas del piso. Recomendaría pedir la talla ajustada a tu pie, porque como es amplio, se acomoda bien. A mi me hubiera gustado pedirla por lo menos media talla menos, que sería justo la medida de mi pie. Estoy muy contenta con ellos.

Justo lo que esperaba, muy cómodos en comparación con los tenis/zapatillas tradicionales, siento la pisada más estable y el zero drop resulta confortable al caminar, venía con unos pequeños defectos de fábrica, pero prácticamente no se ven esos detalles. El diseño me gustó aún más en persona

The wide toe box is a game changer. If you're not used to shoes like this, there can be an adjustment period for your foot muscles. Saved our feet in Disneyland!

I wear 11.5 EE wide shoes. I can almost never find shoes that fit. I ordered the 12 wide, and they’re perfect. They fit and wear like socks as the material is knit, and stretches to fit your foot. I have honestly never worn a more comfortable shoe in my life. You can feel cracks in the sidewalk and little pebbles. I bought these for Tai Chi, and they’re the perfect martial arts shoe for people with wide feet. Outstanding shoes.
