When I took these shoes from the box, I thought I'd been sent a too small shoe -- but I slipped them on and they feel very comfortable, with or without socks. I look for men's shoes that a woman can wear because I have very wide feet, bunions, and arthritis. I need room in the toebox. But I refuse to stop moving so good footwear is a must. It's possible they could have just a little more arch support, but I'll let time sort out what I think about that. I hear they need to be washed periodically to control odor. I do wonder how long the special strap will last before it wears. I'm going to check out the company's web site. But so far, I'm quite happy with them.

These shoes are great! I look forward to slipping them on after a long run or bike ride each and every time. Great recovery shoe! Also great for a nice relaxing day around town as well. Super light. Only wish they were waterproof, so I could throw them and the pack and ford rivers with them. Inov-8 has great products.

I am a size 10.5US and had to up size to 11 for perfect fit. Just wore them through a Crossfit WOD and found shoes to be extremely great to the sport. Excellent stability, no slippage in heel, super light, and generally feel very fast for a nontraditional shoe. Perfect for summer workouts.

These are the best shoes! They are very light and so comfortable! I bought a second pair for my 70 year old mother who loves them. I actually have Keens that look like these but these are ten times more comfortable.

I've wanted a pair of sandals like this for a long time. Many other brands like Keene just didn't fit my foot right. I never heard of this brand 'til I cruised the Zappos site. I ordered them, wore them around the house for a while then kept them. Thanks Zappos for your 365 day return policy. No, it didn't take me 365 days but it gave me enough time to be sure I got the right sandals.

About inov-8
All inov-8 footwear goes through extensive testing by enthusiasts and elite international athletes, to guarantee they perform like they should. Their whole design development process centers on optimizing the end user's performance. The uppers of inov-8 shoes are extremely functional with mesh in the forepart and tongues for maximum breathability. This creates a good climate that helps you run at your best. When you run through water and the shoe gets soaked, it creates a pumping action that expels the water from the shoe allowing it to dry quickly. The lace webbing is positioned allowing a secure foothold without altering the natural alignment of the metatarsals. The back of their shoes are cleanly cut which allows your Achilles tendon to experience high levels of comfort and minimum restriction- particularly when running down hill.
The inov-8 team is made up of experts with proven track records in the footwear fields of sports, mountaineering, marine, outdoor and industrial design and development. This linked with a strong bio-mechanics input, coupled with a test team of elite athletes in the mountain sport environment gives inov-8 the creative culture for next generation products.

Great shoes! Comfortable, and light. I have a bad ankle with traumatic arthritis, plate, screws and have a lot of pain in my feet and ankles. I can wear these shoes walking all day and my feet are better than they have been in years. I've got 3 pairs. I don't run but walk all day for my job, love to hike and travel. They are also perfect for walk/run on the beach.

Incredibly comfortable shoe. Made along the lines of a barefoot shoe, there is minimal support and just a bit of cushioning. Great for post-run. I also like them for travel (easy to slip on and off at security).

Bought these to use as a minimalist shoe when I reluctantly need to wear shoes. It's great attributes are a very wide toe box (like the Teva Sunkosi 2), and extremely light weight. Very comfortable for casual wear without looking as much like a sandal as some hybrids. They look great with jeans.

The Recolite is great. Light and comfortable. I can even run in them. I used to wear Keen sandals and the difference is like night and day. Keens are heavy and ugly. I love my Inov-8s.

I'm using this shoe for everything from hiking to running to traveling. Great fit/comfort and light weight! Super alternative for runners looking for low-profile shoe. I have about 100 miles on my pair (mostly road, some trail) and there's hardly any sign of wear.

These are great. I usually live in flip flops in the warmer months, but have been wanting shoes like this for times when a slightly more structure shoes is needed -- or one that won't fall off as easily in water, for example. These definitely fit the bill. They are unbelievably light; it really is remarkable. And they don't look as bulky as the Keen sandals they kind of look like. Bottom line: If you are considering them, definitely get them. They are better than you can tell from looking online.

I walk 40 miles a week in the Deep South heat, and these are the coolest, most comfortable shoes I've ever had. Lightweight, flexible, great road protection, rarely get rocks inside even though the sides are ventilated. I may order 2 or 3 more pairs!

Great overall shoe. I wear them at the gym and for walking around town. Most important. They're cool (very sweaty feet here). Never heard of this brand before, but quality seems very good. Made in China.

I wear size 9 womens, but the 9.5W was too large and the 8.5W seemed too small at first. I have high insteps, so I took out the insole and these now fit fine. I don't need the insoles but will keep them if these shoes seem to stretch out. Wish they came in half sizes.

Cool, comfortable for the most part, except feels a little insecure in the heel--I'm not sure why. Nice toe box, doesn't pinch toes. Laces are solid rather than elastic, which I like (elastic laces make the shoes want to ride up and down when I walk). These sneakers also have no tongues, which is kind of nice--it makes them easier to put on. Most importantly for my city walking and light hiking, this shoe has a flexible sole instead of a stiff sole. In terms of style they aren't very feminine-looking and they make my big feet look bigger. Still they're good shoes except that on me the heels feel oddly unsupported.
Brands I'd also recommend: Any shoes with flexible forefoot, except for heavy hiking.

Super lightweight, breathe very well, sized to wrap comfortably around your foot rather than just being a big clunky shoe with some hole in it like cheaper versions of this type are.
