WHITIN Men's Wide Toe Box Barefoot Shoes Minimalist Sneakers W883

After spending lots of money of custom orthotics and supportive shoes, a physical therapist suggested I should actually go the other direction and try barefoot shoes. She said many times foot and knee pain is the result of muscle deterioration and orthotic (super supportive) shoes can increase the issue because they provide so much support the muscles don't get as strong as they should. I looked up barefoot shoes and was taken aback by how expensive many of them were. I wasn't sure I'd actually like them, and didn't want to spend $$$$ if I hated the shoe. I saw a review that recommended WHITIN as a super affordable choice so gave them a try. I'll admit, I was skeptical. However, as soon as I put the shoe on for the first time, I was won over. They are very comfortable, the heel doesn't slip, the sole is flexible, etc. The shoe also breathes well so my foot doesn't get too hot. I now have an indoor pair that works better than typical slippers, and several pair to wear for everyday. I've been wearing WHITIN shoes almost exclusively for about 3 months now, and my feet are so much happier. I still have some knee pain, but it is a bit better. Despite the think sole, it is pretty grippy. Not sure how it does on wet surfaces, but it does well on smooth rock surfaces, gravel, pavement, slippery floors, etc. A few things to know about the shoe. The sole is thin. You will feel rocks and other surfaces under your feet. After all, these are barefoot shoe style. This means I can't wear them everywhere. If I were a runner, I probably would need more support for long runs or risk foot injury -- but I'm not a runner : ) My biggest complaint is the sole is pretty noisy on tile floors. For normal walking, it makes a soft clop-clop sound like a horse on pavement. Every so often the sole will hit just right and make a huge squeaking noise. Not a HUGE deal, but it took a while to get used to. With a think sole, I don't know how long the shoes will last. However, I've worn mine a lot while walking on pavement, and the sole is still fine. These shoes are definitely worth trying. With good sales, I ended up buying 4 pairs. I'm thinking I might get a few more in case they stop making them. At this point, I'm not motivated to invest in the "fancy" barefoot shoes. I don't think I could like them more than I like these ones.

Wow, these barefoot shoes are a revelation! They arrived ready to make my feet rejoice. Comfort? Check. Feel? Double check. I’ve been strutting around in them, both socked and sockless, and let me tell you, they’ve been a dream on my lengthy strolls. I'm especially fond of the toe box—it's as wide as my ambitions! After enduring some toe-cramming footwear that made my toes look like sardines, finding these Whitin barefoot shoes feels like a Cinderella moment. They scream quality, look fabulous, provide stellar arch support, and seem built to withstand the test of time—all at a price that won’t make your wallet cry. They fit like a charm; I normally sport a size 11, snagged an 11, and it’s a match made in footwear heaven! If you want a shoe that’s just plain awesome and budget-friendly, you can't miss here!

These shoes are lightweight and comfortable with a nice wide toe box. They’re flexible and work well for casual walking or daily wear. Pros: wide fit, lightweight, flexible sole Cons: minimal cushioning—takes adjustment if you’re new to barefoot shoes Bottom line: Solid option for anyone transitioning to minimalist footwear.

I now own several pairs of Whitins, and they’re great. I have very flat feet, and switching to a barefoot shoe has made a tremendous difference for me. I have significantly less foot pain since I’ve started wearing these daily. They seem to be holding up well after several months of daily wear. And you certainly can’t beat the price! They’re probably not the most stylish shoes on the planet, but they sure are comfortable.

This is my 2nd pair of Whitin shoes. I absolutely love them. I run and workout in the other pair. These shoes go great with shorts or can even be worn with jeans. The toebox is super wide. They’re extremely comfortable. I’m just going to keep adding to my collection.

Let’s start off with the cons: they have no support because they are zero drop shoes. Now that I got all the negative out-of-the-way to say the pros…. As a man of 350 pounds but very active. I have realized that using wide toe box shoes … have definitely put up the arch on my foot even though the shoe doesn’t provide any support… now these are not the type of shoes you want to wear to go hiking or even have a long day at an amusement park like Disney. Because it literally feels like you’re walking on a piece of rubber and that’s it. They’re great for doing leg day at the gym because it provides you with the grip and also they are completely flat…. I am the other hand don’t use these for working out but only for going out and I get stopped all the time because people think they look cool. The material is actually really tough canvas and they’re very durable. I’ve had them for a while and I usually shred my shoes. I am normally a 14 wide in shoes, but I ended up getting pair of 13 wides with no problems. If it’s like a glove. I call them my Fandas - flat pandas 😂

The fit was good, not a slip in fit, not a lot of support, they look good, I have wide feet and these sneakers feel good on my feet. I don't think I would purchase them again!

Bought them for a hot European trip. They have been comfortable. Light and breath well.

Son zapatos cómodos y empleos, aunque cuesta un poco acostumbrarte y si los usas mucho tiempo si puede llegar a cansar, pero una vez acostumbrado están de 100.

Muy comodos, muy bonitos, muy bien hechos. Material de gran calidad, tela transpirable, suela que tiene buen agarre, cumplen con todos los parámetros para barefoot style, los compré para probarlos y les doy 5 estrellas y me comprare mas parés. Precio beneficio es de alto retorno. Ahora a darles uso para ver el desgaste y actualizar el review.

I wear fat skate shoes my entire life and hate my toes getting squeezed. But these are a nice shoe for summer or beach since they breath and really are wide enough for the feet. Measurement's are accurate too. I just wish the seam at the toe would go up slightly more since it seems to land right on the toe nail.

Zapatos muy cómodos, amplios de muy buena calidad
