So. It honestly took me awhile to decide whether or not I wanted to give these a shot. I HATE shoes. I do. I have the worst luck with them, and I just end up wearing flip flops 300+ days out of the year. I get super stoked when I find any shoe company that advertises their shoes as 'barefoot', and was intrigued when I found these. Well. They're rad! Seriously. I absolutely love them. The fit is right on when you use their size chart (I usually wear an 8.5, and I ordered an 8), and they're the most comfortable sandals I've ever owned. Super lightweight, excellent tread/traction, and I can even run in them! They seem super sturdy thus far, and I plan on testing that. I plan on wearing them until they die (which hopefully won't be for a good long while). I'd like to order a second pair for work, and dare I say it...try a pair of Xero's actual shoes!
