I am not a minimal or barefoot shoe person, but since I have been living with plantar fascitis, I would try something unconventional.  And this is for me only, but for only a few hours a day, walking without the contraption of  "shoes" at home, my feet felt fine.  I use it for yoga class, but putting on these, takes some time.  These were a nice introduction to minimalist shoes and to the Vibram brand,
