The Barefoot Experience especially with the wide toebox
The product is really good for its price, that too coming from an Indian manufacturer. I have used barefoot style shoes extensively since 2013 -- 2 Merrell shoes with Vibram sole (Very good sole performance, grip wise) , 1 Azani; an Indian copy with very poor sole performance (grip) when even slightly wet or touches water. And now I have a Vibram Five Finger, super comfortable and really barefoot style with amazing sole performance, even when it is just 2-4 mm. But this one is really good with fit and comfort, even though it has thinck sole and heavy insole. Shoe is much heavier than all other barefoot style shoes I have used and weight balance is shifted towards front. Even though it is not technically a barefoot type in terms of foot perception, wide toe-box and minimal heel-to-toe drop makes it really comfortable. Also treads and sole is really good and gives feeling of secure grip. Easy to put on and the design is just right with proper sizing compared to normal shoe size, with the band over tongue giving a secure fit. I have not really tried running on this, but think that due to the good elastic band over the tongue, it will not come out. Personally insole thickness and weight of shoe makes my feet ache sometimes, but I cannot complain as this is the best shoe I have found yet for my need given the prize (got it at โน895) and the usage (I can wear it to office without anyone noticing, well almost). The finger/toe like design marking is unnecessary and makes it a more noticeable than necessary (not that I am complaining, as I have worn Vibram Five Fingers to office on purpose to start a discussion on barefoot style shoes and foot health that is damaged big time by stupidly indoctrinating people that high-heeled, cramped-toe shoes are really good for running and walking). So, I am not complaining about fashion and comfort of this shoe, but instead appreciate about the healthy aveneue it provides for maintaining better foot health at such affordable cost. Also thicker sole gives more protection from shoe getting wet even with little water on road (as happens with VFF). I bought one for my teenage son too to give him an option to improve his foot health.

Good product
I gifted these shoes to my brother who wears it to the gym and he really likes these shoes. Very good to wear if you want a barefoot feeling while doing deadlifts or squats. Wide-toed so very comfortable and with a good grip. Quite lightweight and flexible too. A very good option as normal walking shoes as well.

Excellent design and quality.
Excellent grip and very comfortable, feels safe. There is a string to put it on your feet easily. Thank you for the great item.

Sole had poor outdoor durability
I had ordered for two but had recieved one of them in the wrong colour .. the fit is comfortable and sole provides ample grip even in the rains and on wet surfaces .. it gives you a great feeling of barefoot walking or trekking .. However it's not durable and the sole material starts breaking easily .. my pair started having the sole lugs break off the bottom of the heel after only a month of daily use (walking between 5-7kms) .. and since it was beyond the return period I had to keep it .. after 3 months I have had around 3 holes in the bottom of the soles between both the pairs so it's got little stones and dust constantly coming inside .. it's not bad for driving either as it gives one a good feel of the throttle pedal but maybe it's better to be used for indoor use like yoga or gym only as it's outdoor durability leaves a lot to be desired

Durable and Comfortable Shoes, but Insole Quality Could Be Better.
I've had these shoes for two years now, and I'm still going strong! I've worn them daily for my walks, and they look almost new after regular washes (see pictures). The quality of the shoe is exceptional, and I've been impressed with their durability. However, I do have one suggestion for improvement: the insole quality could be better. After two years of use, I've noticed some wear and tear on the insoles. Despite this, I'd still recommend these shoes to anyone looking for a comfortable and durable pair for daily wear. The pros definitely outweigh the cons! *Pros:* Durable, comfortable, looks great even after 2 years *Cons:* Insole quality could be improved *Recommendation:* Worth the purchase, but consider replacing insoles after a year or two for optimal comfort.

Comfortable, wide and reasonably priced
Only option in the market really which gives a reasonably comfortable barefoot experience at a sane price range.... only problem is the sole is too thin for individuals over 70kgs and that is why I had to deduct one star.
