I've 3 pairs of whitins,The high top, the low knits and now these meshThese are awesome I love the low profile unmarked look. Very breathable for the gym and they lace well.I've put them through abuse. Trail running, waterparks, worked in them. I've work the sole down thin and the price is so reachable. I do IT and I'll wear these to work on occasion. I live in the Texas desert and they are awesome in the summer.I also wear vivobarefoot, bearfoot , magic shoes and these are one of my favorite. best gym shoe.wide toe, .. no heel

Great grip for Circus based things!
I originally bought these for Chinese Pole which is a large vertical pole that requires shoes with good grip to keep you on it! These work perfectly and the price speaks for itself. While I initially bought them for this very niche thing, they are also super comfortable, fit perfectly, and they look pretty great as well. I fully intend to buy more of these when my size is not sold out in other colors haha.I am a size 10 usually in mens (US) and I selected 9.5-10 and it fits perfectly.

My first pair of minimal shoes
If you're curious and can afford the shoes, buy these and just try them. I've worn "normal" shoes (mostly heavy boots...) for all of my adult life, and these have made me venture down the minimal shoe rabbit hole. They're extremely comfortable, flexible, and you can feel every bit/detail of what you're walking over. I'm a musician and standing for a 2-4 hour performance in my normal footware has started to cause me pain and fatigue. These shoes have solved that issue. I only detract one star for the material within the heel of the shoe. It seems to be of a very thin and brittle material, and it has turned into a weird "crumpled ball of paper" inside of the heel's fabric type of feeling. I don't know how else to explain that. They would be perfect for how they're advertised/described if this could be fixed. I will buy these again if needed so it is really a non-issue, I'm just being picky. And for the price, beggars can't be choosers.

Lasted 15 months
For $40 you get a lot of value.Took 15 months to develop holes.I'm gonna shoe glue some new rubber to the bottom to get some more life since the tops are still good.I like the soft heels.You can slip them on and off.These are my daily work shoes, desk / walking around work space.These are also great travel shoes, light and packable.

Durable and comfortable
Great barefoot shoes. Have had for awhile and used extensively. Great for everyday wear and durable enough to take it. I've still not worn down the soles after almost a year.

Not bad, especially for the price
For the price, these are a great introduction to minimalist shoes and a worthy replacement for my old go-to's, the Saucony Bullets.Pros:-Price. These cost less than half as much as most other pairs of minimalist shoes.-Upper material They are soft and breath well. No heel chafing at all.Cons:-Narrow toe-box for minimalist shoes. The toeibox here is a bit pinched, which exacerbates the next issue.-Stitching hot-spot on the pinkie toes. This isn't entirely unexpected. My pinkie toe falls at a spot where there needs to be reinforced stitching. But in a shoe where the materials are otherwise nice and soft and plush, the stitching rubbing here is a bummer. That said, nothing that can't be overcome with a bit of moleskin. And at this pricepoint, it's not bad.Overall, especially if you intend to wear socks and have never tried a minimalist or barefoot shoe, these are a solid first shot without breaking the bank. Give them a shot and see what you think.

Fits well
It's a very decent show for the price and although it's a cheaper alternative. It doesn't feel much different.

A pretty nice minimalist sneaker
I'm writing this review after 1 day of wearing these. So I may post updates if things change.What I like:I like that the toebox is shaped like an actual human foot. I like having space to splay and wiggle my toes and these shoes offer that. I like how minimal they are. They feel like I'm wearing nothing.What I don't like:I knew what I was signing up for when I bought these, but I don't like the "zero drop" aspect of these shoes. Interestingly enough, the insoles in these shoes seem to be more of a "negative drop" than "zero drop." The thickness of the insole at the heel feels thinner than at the toes when I take it out and give it the "very precise and scientific" finger pinch test. After a day of wearing them with the stock insoles I went to Walmart and bought some Dr. Scholl's cut-to-fit gel insoles that provide a tiny bit of heel raise to them. That modification made these shoes quite a bit more comfortable if you're not a fan of the zero drop aspect. It also gave the general experience of walking around a bit more cushion. I know...I'm defeating the purpose of "barefoot" style shoes by adding heel lift and cushion. Check the pictures to see which Dr. Scholl's insole I got.My only other "complaint" about these shoes is that the soles are kind of loud and tappy sounding when my toes land on the ground. Hopefully that goes away over time.
