Love the shape of these shoes! I’ve found some of my other barefoot brands have been starting to feel a little narrow in the toe box so ordered these because of the toe box shape and retro style. They didn’t disappoint. Officially my new favourite pair of shoes and so incredibly comfortable. I ordered these blue and it isn’t as bright as the stock photo depicts but I actually prefer the colour in person - more of a denim blue colour.
Love these sneakers so much, I bought a second pair in white/black. Runs a little small and had to size up - normally a size 39/40, but in these I’m size 41.
Love these shoes. They are very comfortable being nice and wide. They are also very versatile so can wear them with track pants, jeans or trousers. The only shoes I took when travelling and lugage allowance was limited.
Looking forward to trying more in their range.
The shoes fit well, are comfy, light and stylish. I would highly recommend. The service at the store was also very good.
A couple of things to note:
I'm used to suede leather which is much warmer in the Sydney winter, so I've had to wear nice warm socks - nothing on the shoes but worth noting.
The soles could be grippier, I have to be careful on wet or smooth surfaces. I'm used to Five10 or Vibram soles which are supper grippy on all surfaces.
Love my shoes. Super comfy and love the fit. Not to wide around my mid foot but plenty of room for my toes to sit in a natural position. Have worn them everyday since they arrived and they look perfect still.
True to size. I wear a size 40 in Vivobarefoot and Bohempia, and these fit perfectly. I have low-volume feet, and they fit nicely. They have good toe space without being too roomy. The heel was slightly stiff on the first day of wear, but this wasn't a problem after a few days. They offer a good in-between ground feel. Not too thin, but not too spongy. I'm very happy with my purchase.
Bought my first pair in brown when os so “needed” another pair. I have received heaps of compliments & requests for further info. Great quality and super comfy size 39 same
As other shoes
I absolutely love these shoes. The toe box is wide and has plenty of room. The sole is very flexible but also durable. These look very on trend. Super comfy to wear all day long.
I have been looking for a pair of blue trainers for casual wear for some time and so was delighted to see these advertised. They look good with my jeans and wide leg track pants. Most importantly they don’t squash my toes but don’t look super wide either. I am going to get another colour soon.
So comfy - roomy across the toe yet nice and snug around the heel and ankle. They seem really well constructed - great quality. Have worn them hiking and to work. The sole is grippy but also easy to clean. I love the look of them and went back for a second colourway!
they are great: comfy, aesthetically pleasing, one can tell they are hand made, european style shoes not your common sneakers made in a fabric in asia with a flashy label and pricy.
highly recomend them
They fit really well, and the added toe box room has been really comfortable. Only problem would be that my old shoes hurt to wear now hahaha.
In addition, the leather has kept really well, and the shoes still look close to new after a couple months of use.
These are such stylish, functional shoes, I really love them. Mine are borderline slightly too large (EU38) and I am usually a 38 but they are super comfortable still
