Fitting guide very inaccurate!
Was apprehensive to pull the trigger on these shoes, mostly due to cost and associating that with quality. I am very pleased with them, though. The price point makes them a steal! First the good: I have VERY flat, low profile feet, kinda like skis. Plus my pinky toe has started rolling over and goinng inward. THese shoes provide a generous toe box, and even loosely laced fit my feet like a glove. It was weird walking in them at first as this is the only pair of 0 drop shoes I have worn, almost tripped walking down the hall as if my feet didn't know how to work. After a couple minutes I adapted. My feet feel more "connected" to the ground, with exceptional grip and fit. My feet are very comfortable and not tired after a full day at work on my feet. I will be buying more in the future. The bad: This doesn't take away from my fondness of the shoes, but the top of the toe box (near the laces) somewhat folds in, creating a look of shoes that dont fit well, despite them fitting perfectly. So if you are someone who prefers appearance of functionality, this might drive you crazy. Tall profile feet may eliminate this, as they would fill out the shoe more. Additionally, the fitting chart for these shoes is whack! I measured my foot heal to toe, based on their recommendation I should order a size 8. I read another review that indicated I should order my usual size. So I ordered an 11 (im an 11.5 mens), and they fit perfect! Overall, great shoe, even better value, time will tell how well they hold up to daily wear and tear. Im impressed so far and would recommend to freinds.

Wow!!!
TLDR: GET THEM. WORTH IT FOR DAILY GYM LIFE!!! Ok I was skeptical with these because 1. it's a no brand and 2. it's on amazon. I was on the barefoot market for a very long time trying to research which is worth getting. I saw reviews for the toed-shoes and the ones that are pricey like Vivo Barefoot. I was going to go for the expensive pair, but came across alllll the raving reviews for this shoe. I kind of went in blind hoping that these were decent since amazon has a lot of bot reviews. but I have to be honest... these are AMAZING for my wide (bunion) feet. I was experiencing a lot of tense muscles/ knots under my feet, even with custom inserts, so I decided to go with barefoot to "train" the muscles in my feet to get stronger on their own without support. I started strength training at the gym with these and omg they're amazing for leg days. My squat form is way better thanks to these. I even use em on the treadmill, but if you run and go long distances, it will probably start making your feet sore. Wear high quality socks and slowly break these in to get the benefits. I don't go to the gym without them anymore. They're solid and have not fallen apart on me yet. It's been about a month or two with them and I can honestly vouch for how legit these are. Heck, try these walking around your home. You'll love them! Super lightweight and comfortable. They also feel more breathable than most sneakers -a true godsend because I also get sweaty extremities!

Affordable Barefoot Comfort—My Feet Have Never Felt Better!
I was hesitant at first about these WHITIN barefoot shoes, mostly because I saw how pricey other minimalist shoes could get. But after giving them a try, I have zero regrets—they’ve quickly become my go-to everyday shoe. They're surprisingly comfortable, really lightweight, and breathable, making them perfect for daily activities. I especially appreciate the wide toe box, which lets my toes spread naturally—way more comfy than the tight sneakers I used to wear. They're easy to slip on and feel amazing, even after long days on my feet. Pros: Comfortable & Roomy: Wide toe box lets your toes spread naturally, which feels fantastic, especially if you’re on your feet all day. Affordable Alternative: Way less expensive than high-end brands like Vivo or Xero, but still deliver great quality and feel. Light & Breathable: Super lightweight, so your feet stay cool and comfortable, even in warmer weather or during exercise. Cons: Limited Padding: If you're new to barefoot shoes, it takes some getting used to, and you might feel more impact walking on hard surfaces at first. Adjusting Period: Your feet might need time to adjust to the minimalist design, especially if you’re used to heavily cushioned sneakers. Overall, these shoes are a steal for anyone wanting the barefoot experience without breaking the bank. Perfect for casual wear, gym days, or even just walking around the house.

Perfect Blend of Comfort and Style, Perfect for Everyday Wear
I recently purchased the WHITIN Men's Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneakers in all three colors: black, gray gum, and light brown gum. These shoes have exceeded my expectations in terms of both comfort and style. What's more, these are my first minimalist shoes, and I've found them incredibly easy to wear daily. Black: The black pair is my go-to choice for everyday wear. I've been wearing them since July of this year, and they've proven to be durable and comfortable for extended use. The wide design provides ample room for my feet to spread naturally, and the zero-drop sole ensures I maintain good posture and balance. They're perfect for daily wear, and I couldn't be happier with my first minimalist shoe experience. Gray Gum: I purchased the gray gum sneakers shortly after, in August. These shoes have been my choice for workouts and long walks. They offer excellent support without sacrificing flexibility, and the gray color adds a modern touch to my athletic wear. I find it incredibly easy to transition to minimalist footwear, and these sneakers make it a breeze. Light Brown Gum: The light brown gum sneakers were also added to my collection in August. They have become my go-to choice for casual outings and outdoor adventures. They are not only comfortable but also rugged enough to handle various terrains. The light brown color complements outdoor settings and looks great with jeans or shorts. As my first foray into minimalist shoes, these have made me a minimalist shoe enthusiast. Pros: Wide design promotes foot comfort and natural movement. Zero-drop sole enhances posture and balance. Excellent build quality for long-lasting use. Versatile colors for different occasions. Great for both urban and outdoor activities. Ideal for first-time minimalist shoe wearers. Cons: Sizing can be slightly larger than expected, so consider ordering half a size down for a snug fit. Lighter colors tend to get dirty quickly, requiring more frequent cleaning and maintenance. Overall, I highly recommend the WHITIN Men's Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneakers in all these fantastic color options. These shoes strike the perfect balance between comfort and style, making them a valuable addition to your footwear collection. Whether you're strolling through the city, hitting the gym, or exploring the great outdoors, these sneakers have you covered, especially if you're new to the world of minimalist footwear.

Great for lifting and daily wear. Running requires some adaptations.
These shoes have become my daily wear. Super comfortable and easy to slip on without undoing the laces. The big selling point for me was how light they are. I don't feel weighed down at all compared to my other, clunkier shoes. The sizing is pretty much equivalent to Nike (i.e. I was wearing size 11 Air Forces, switched to these in size 11 and they fit perfectly). The toe box is quite wide and I don't feel cramped even with the laces done up tight. They're perfect for squats and deadlifts (assuming that your ankle mobility is sufficient and you don't need an elevated heel). Obviously, these are meant for a specific audience and they're not ideal if you require a significant amount of arch support or cushioning. My only complaint is that the white mesh does get dirty quite easily, but that's easily fixable as these seem washing machine safe.

Good soles spoiled by bad uppers
I purchased these shoes to replace similar Joomra shoes I had worn out. (Which they no longer sell...) The Good: The soles are almost exactly like my old Joomra ones. They are lightweight, flexible, zero-drop, and have a wide, comfortable toe-box. In fact, they have the same profile, since I used to buy Whitin insoles for replacements. The Bad: The uppers are terrible. They are lightweight, but the side pieces (where you lace them up) go down to the ball of the foot - the widest part, and where your toes bend. That causes them to bunch up and crease there, creating uncomfortable pressure and tension across the foot at that point. Not what I want in shoes. I foolishly bought two pairs, and wore one for a while, just to see if they would 'break in' or something. Those I will keep, because I don't want to return worn shoes. But the second pair are going back, and I will look for better ones.

Comfortable, durable, and they look like shoes instead of toes!
Really really happy with Whitin lately. The first pair I ever got, I needed to wash so they wouldn't feel like they were pinching the ball of my foot from the sides. That is a long gone problem and every pair of these I've bought recently (probably 4 pair in different colors) have been super comfortable. I go about a half size smaller than I would for a 'normal' sneaker like a Nike and they fit like a glove. I've had compliments on them at work, and wear them daily now. They have the grip of a good sneaker, don't overly pad my foot, but also have flexibility, and don't cook or freeze my feet. My wide feet have never been happier and these are my daily drivers now.
