## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these shoes cause pain or any problem to backbone and knees?**
A: No these trainers are designed to help with knee and back pain, by allowing the foot to be in its natuaral position. They take a bit of getting used to, but feel brilliant on my feet. Hope this helps

**Q: i wear 7.5 what size should i get 7 or 8?**
A: People say they run large but I am a size 11 and they fit true to size for me. Depends if you have wide/narrow feet - if you have wider feet go for the 8, narrow go for the 7. 

 Hope that helps

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Practical
*by A***S on 22 November 2025*

I bought these for my partner last Christmas and now he’s my fiancé! He loves them and wears them for the gym everyday. The comfort is top level but the flatness is perfect for deadlifting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great all round shoe!
*by T***R on 15 February 2023*

Purchased these shoes from Amazon. An amazing shoe that I have now worn for 20 months at work, at the gym and just generally outside everywhere I go - same pair. Will be buying another pair very soon as the sole has gone!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gamechangers!
*by G***N on 7 March 2025*

Where shall I start, these shoes have changed my feet for the better! I'm roughly one year in my barefoot journey, from mostly slippers and as soon as the weather permitted, to fully barefoot in nature, and then these shoes. I takes a bit of time to get used to things, the different stance, the somewhat odd fit at first, and the way you walk a bit different in it. And you need to train your muscles too. Now, I love them, use them for everything, even did a 50KM walk in them! Not going to lie, that was a bit much to ask from my feet, as the path was often not very even, but the shoes handled it without any issues. Would I do it tomorrow, I would have no doubt and use them again. (And since I walked in them for 6 months plus, my feet are up to the job as well.) On a note to this, after a year, my feet have changed shape, my toes are straighter, and less crooked! but... also a lot wider. So, half my shoes are now very uncomfortable to wear. This is not a bad thing mind you, but I did think it is important to note this if you go the full barefoot journey. For me Office shoes where the biggest issue (tapered nose).. but some new wide barefoot shoes helped me out. I hope they will make a cycling shoe one day, as that is currently my biggest challenge. sure in the gym I just use these and rely on the strength of my feet, but on the road bike and mountain bike I need something with a stronger sole. If you made it this far.. don't let the small negatives defy you, get on the journey and heal your feet. Hope this helped you!
