    Great, minimalist shoe. Nice wide toe box. Very flexible and comfortable. I've worn them with and without socks, and either way is fine. The only con is that this shoe is a little heavier than some others I have- mine weighed in a 7.4 ounces. I don't really notice the weight when running though.

    Very comfortable... I had to return the first pair as I ordered too small. Easily returned and replaced tho. Plan to purchase the barefoot hikers soon too.

    I tried 6 different pairs and sizes of Vibro and none fit my narrow foot. My toes just crashed into the front. The Jambu fit better. Also, the toe height is not enough if you have a big toe that tends to roll up.

    Had to size up but they are great comfort. No break in period at all. I hate tennis shoes but can wear these through workout and walk without difficulty.

    I love these shoes. Although, I don't run in them, I find that I walk with a lighter step since I'm not pounding on my heels. I've used them in a moderate hike at a state park with a very uneven and sometimes rocky terrain. I think I did good. My feet adjusted to the environment. However, I may just purchase an off-road style as well as I am hiking more and more these days.

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    In 2004, Terra Plana became pioneers of the barefoot movement by launching VIVOBAREFOOT™, the first minimalist shoe with a patented, ultrathin puncture-resistant sole that offers maximum sensory feedback (proprioception), and maximum protection. 70% of your brain’s information for movement comes from the nerves on the soles of your feet. The more you can feel the ground, the greater your body’s understanding of its surroundings and natural movement.

    In 2010, the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Harvard University, both released studies to support that barefoot reduces injuries, reserves energy, and improves technique.

    VIVOBAREFOOT™ features the most comprehensive line of minimalist shoes on the market. The VIVOBAREFOOT™ difference is in the sole. We make a series of constructions specifically designed for varying elements, terrains, and activities. From high performance off-road and trail running shoes, to work and kids shoes, VIVOBAREFOOT™ offers a total lifestyle solution for the whole family.

    VIVOBAREFOOT™ footwear is produced sustainably using recycled, locally sourced materials, with efficient and eco-friendly production techniques, in independently monitored ethical factories.

    This runs very small! I usually wear an 8, but I ordered these in an 8½, and I should have ordered at least a 9 or possibly even a 9½. Other than that, they felt comfortable. They have very lightweight, flexible soles, without feeling or looking weird like FiveFingers do. Do not get me wrong, I own a pair of Vibram FiveFingers and am a big fan of them for working out and correcting my bunions when they get bad, but sometimes I want a minimalist shoe that is more suited to running around town. These seem to fit the bill, but I do wish the toebox was a little wider.

    I heart this shoe! It is perfection. It is comfortable and cute. They are very light weight. I use it to workout and walk my dog. A wonderful shoe for New York or for walking around your favorite city in Europe. I usually wear a 9 1/2-10. 9 1/2 fits perfectly. So if you are in between sizes go to smaller size. Your feet will thank you!

    A great barefoot shoe. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a bare minimum sole who wants to get in touch with the ground and feel more balanced. I was unsure whether my wide feet would fit in this shoe but I've been very pleased with how it fits. Just make sure to order a half size larger than you normally would, it runs smaller like most running shoes. You definitely want that extra space in the front of the shoe, it adds to the comfort. I wear these things everywhere. :)

    These shoes changed my life. I have short wide feet and trouble with balance unless I am barefoot. These are the only shoes that I can get on and walk around in with ease balance and comfort. Do not waste minute. Get them and see. They are really good for people in rehab I would bet, people getting back on their feet who do not want to worry about balancing in shoes that put you above the green dirt. They are truly barefoot simulation experience but not uncomfortable. They are breezy easy and cute with jeans shorts and dresses.
