My normal Vibram's are a pair of women's 41 KSO's (which are just a little big) or a pair of women's 41 Sprints (just right). Reading the other review, I bought a size down from my KSO's hoping to have just bit of room in the toes. They fit perfectly. Not having a strap or something across the top of the foot takes some getting used to. They feel like they should fall off, but they don't. And, of course, the wonderfully fast shipping from Zappos deserves a mention. Thanks Zappos!

2nd pair. I usually wear 42 in FF and these fit fine. They are designed to be lower cut but never rubbed me. They are fairly sturdy to walk in all day if you have strong feet. I walked in mine in Florida for hours. FF are about strong feet so if you haven't worn these before your feet may hurt... That's probably more bc of your foot and not the shoe. As far as style.... They are toe shoes. I have 8 different FF and I would struggle to call any cute!! I can't walk in flip flops to save my life so these are for me!

3rd pair of 5 Fingers Different style. Normally I’m a size 7-71/2 but get size 39 in Vibrams. Tried to love this style as much as my others BUT the back of shoe dug into my heel. They used to put a padding that flapped up or tucked inside but perhaps that’s the old model. The material used with the holes felt little bit scratchy and toes were not as comfortable as my old pair.

I asked a question prior to buying the shoe to see if there had been an update on the California prop 65 warning that comes with these shoes since the last review in 2017 that stated that it came with a warning. A customer service agent responded to my question and assured me that they do not come with a warning but long and behold when I receive the item it had said prop 65 California warning tag on the shoe. I will be returning because I too would like to have children someday and be free of one less harmful chemical in or around my body. Like this is directly on my feet! These companies need to do better ?

I am 7.5 and went with 38 (size chart said go 39) and it’s just right. I went with the smaller size since I read the toe sleeves tended to run on the long side. They’re a perfect fit.

Bought to use as water shoes at lake on kayak. Walked along rocks okay, you can feel the rocks underneath, but not in a painful way. Also worked well washing car and doing yard work and going to store and... They were a little weird at first because I have never worn shoes where my toes were separated, but the weirdness went away within a couple of hours.

It's a little tricky to get each toe in the right place, but it does get easier with practice. I'm so happy that I can wear these! My foot is wide. I'm a Birkenstock "Normal" or a wide or double wide in other shoes. I ordered my usual Birkenstock size. The minimal shoeness on the sides seems to be what makes these shoes work.

Wearing FiveFingers has alleviated the symptoms of my Morton's Neuroma. Hurrah! I can walk again without pain. So wanted to try some different styles. These are super cute. They look like a pair of ballet flats at first glance and do not scream out "toe shoes"! There were a couple spots that rubbed at first, but they stretched out within a couple hours. Feel a wee bit narrower than the more traditional FiveFingers, but still comfie for my wide feet.

Instantly my favorite shoe! Unbelievably comfortable. I have an old pair of Vibrams with straps and Velcro for working out, so thought I'd try these to wear in lieu of always wearing flip flops. Much more comfortable and secure than sandals. Same size, 41, fit me perfect in both my style Vibrams. I'm a 9.5 medium width with bunions. These shows don't rub at all. I didn't want to take them off.

Size 41 fit me the same as with the Trek Ascent - in other words, perfect. This is like wearing a sock with a protective sole that keeps my toes straight. It is a Godsend for my second toe which tends to cross over my big toe. I have ordered another pair in black, which I plan to wear at work. The "red" is more of an orange and I will wear that pair at home. I hope this shoe is not being discontinued as I seem to have bought the last pair in both colors. The only other shoe I intend to wear for the rest of my life is the Trek Ascent for hiking!

They are a great introduction to the individual toe style shoes. I would NOT go running in them but they are perfect for casual walking aka an urban hike to your local bar or library. I am using them to build up my collapsed arch. They are incredibly comfortable and the size 41 fit my size 9 feet perfectly. Because they are so airy this product does not have the same foot odor problem the other Vibram Fivefinger shoes have. I would highly recommend these shoes for the casual walker.

This is my new favorite shoe. I have a high instep so ballet slipper type shoes work best for me. I've been wanting minimalist shoes for a while, but I hadn't seen anything quite right. These are a lovely combination of the two! I'll be buying more of these, most likely. I wear them at home, playing with the kids, shopping. I'd like to exercise in them, but I'll have to work up to it. Church is probably the only place I don't wear them.

I really like these flats. I wear them often and find them very comfortable. I have normal arches so these are perfect for me. I just wish there was more of a color selection.

Love these! I'm an 8 and 39 fits. Comfy and feels like being barefoot. I hope they hold up. Price seems high.

I prefer being barefoot or close to it, but my local gym requires close-toed shoes. I hoped VFFs would give me a close to barefoot feel, and the mesh on these made me hopeful they would let my feet breathe and wouldn't develop a stench, but I didn't like the fit when they arrived so I'm sending them back. The fit wasn't horrible, but they weren't wide enough to suit my foot (C/D width), and the sole was rigid enough that it was difficult to splay my toes. When I tried to splay my toes, I had room to move them, but the sole material didn't bend with my toes and instead my pinkie toes pressed against the toe pocket fabric. I spent about half an hour with these shoes on my feet (inside) to see how they felt, and they didn't feel horrible, but my feet immediately felt much less constrained after taking the shoes off. Not the barefoot-like experience I was hoping for. The elastic also uncomfortably dug into my heel at the back. It's possible these problems would have gone away after wearing the shoes for a time, or stretching them out, but I didn't try anything like that. I am a late-20s/early-30s woman who's sortof out of shape and does not have super strong feet. If you don't usually mind shoes these would might be fine, but the "barefoot-like" experience was wanting for me.

This was my first time trying on a Vibram Five Fingers shoe. I love the 5 toes! That felt fun and just what I was looking for. However, the top of the back of the heel did not: it was starting to leave a red mark on the skin even without me walking around on carpet in the house. I guess I may have sensitive skin? Thus: I'll send them back since our feet are all shaped differently and they may work for another. Thank you, Zappos, for your great shipping and return policies. Due to the problem at the back of the heel, I'll give these a 4 star.

I’m usually size 6.5-7. Bought the 7 and it was little too big. My toes are shorter, so they didn’t fit into the toe part of the shoe. Disappointed they didn’t work out bc they’re very cute. Sadly will return

Size was true but the heel was to low cut, rubbed a blister. Unlike the men’s style that had a high heel and draw string .

The shoe, like other Vibrams, is great. The sizing is another story. I ordered the same size that I have in another pair of Vibrams that fit perfectly, (36), and it was a half size too big. Unfortunately, it doesn't come in anything smaller, which doesn't make sense because other models come in 35! I'm frustrated that I can't just exchange for a smaller size and have to give up on these shoes.

Perfect gift for an avid hula hooper who likes to do hula hooping tricks with foot work. These are also incredible yoga shoes and I've used them for short 5 mile runs without any issues. I hope that Vibram always makes these shoes. These shoes are currently my absolute favorite shoe for wearing all day long in extreme heat.

Besides the occasional high heel, I’ve been exclusively in zero/zero barefoot shoes and boots x 14 years (Vivo barefoot, groundies, Merrill, Tesla). These are my first style of separated toes/5 fingers, worn x 3 years and they are just lovely. Separated toes without the stiffness of other 5 fingers styles. Great for gym and water sports.
