I LOVE these shoes.  I LIVE in them.  They are the only thing I wear except when I'm at work (and if they would get with the program I'd wear them there).  As it is, I wear them to work, change, then put them back on to go home.

I walk in them.  I run in them.  I've trailed over ocean sand, climbed rocks and been on the trail with them.  They dry quickly and wash easily.  (But beware really dry tall grass or 'stickered' areas, this shoe is SUPER thin and those things will poke right through.)

Do take the time to ready the instructions and only wear them a little at a time at first.  It may sound crazy but your feet and calves will thank you.  Going 'barefoot' with these shoes is worlds apart from walking in other shoes and your muscles will freak out at first because they haven't been used since you were a kid!

And there will be a learning curve getting them on at first.  Kind of like contacts.  It takes a few tries to get it right.  Once you do they slip on easily.  I don't even bother to adjust them tighter unless I'm going to be doing some hiking or climbing over rocks.

I fractured my little toe a few years ago and I cannot find any 'regular' shoes that don't hurt no matter how wide or up in size I go.  These shoes, that allow your foot to spread naturally, have solved that problem. I also had some hip pain before I started wearing things.  That too is gone.  With that recommendation, two friends purchased them because of hip pain and they too had the pain disappear.

Cold Tip: These shoes are thin so in the winter your toes can get really cold.  To solve this I bought a pair two sizes too big for me and wear the toe-socks with them.  Problem solved.  (I do not live where there is a lot of snow.  I have worn them in the cold drizzle and it worked fine.  But if you have harsh weather then you'll probably need an alternative for those months.)
