   The Barefoot Experience especially with the wide toebox
   The product is really good for its price, that too coming from an Indian manufacturer.I have used barefoot style shoes extensively since 2013 — 2 Merrell shoes with Vibram sole (Very good sole performance, grip wise) , 1 Azani; an Indian copy with very poor sole performance (grip) when even slightly wet or touches water. And now I have a Vibram Five Finger, super comfortable and really barefoot style with amazing sole performance, even when it is just 2-4 mm.But this one is really good with fit and comfort, even though it has thinck sole and heavy insole. Shoe is much heavier than all other barefoot style shoes I have used and weight balance is shifted towards front.Even though it is not technically a barefoot type in terms of foot perception, wide toe-box and minimal heel-to-toe drop makes it really comfortable. Also treads and sole is really good and gives feeling of secure grip. Easy to put on and the design is just right with proper sizing compared to normal shoe size, with the band over tongue giving a secure fit.I have not really tried running on this, but think that due to the good elastic band over the tongue, it will not come out. Personally insole thickness and weight of shoe makes my feet ache sometimes, but I cannot complain as this is the best shoe I have found yet for my need given the prize (got it at ₹895) and the usage (I can wear it to office without anyone noticing, well almost). The finger/toe like design marking is unnecessary and makes it a more noticeable than necessary (not that I am complaining, as I have worn Vibram Five Fingers to office on purpose to start a discussion on barefoot style shoes and foot health that is damaged big time by stupidly indoctrinating people that high-heeled, cramped-toe shoes are really good for running and walking).So, I am not complaining about fashion and comfort of this shoe, but instead appreciate about the healthy aveneue it provides for maintaining better foot health at such affordable cost. Also thicker sole gives more protection from shoe getting wet even with little water on road (as happens with VFF).I bought one for my teenage son too to give him an option to improve his foot health.

   3 months of rough use and still fresh
   ProsBuilt really well, nothing is coming off, no fade in colour or no tearsExtremely light and agileEnough thickness to not let debris to poke throughAmazing grip from the bottomConsBad ventilation but it’s probably the reason it’s so durable, it’s bearable tho. Design is weak, not as flashy as andune or vibrams but it’s a fraction of the cost therefore an undisputed winnerI have used it on various activities and surfaces, seems good so far, mud, slippery stones, water crossing all good, the worst that has happened is the inner sole moved it’s position and i just had to put it back, which really isn’t even a problem. I did many 5km + walks in rain and dry and nothing big to mention, does its job

   Durable and Comfortable Shoes, but Insole Quality Could Be Better.
   I’ve had these shoes for two years now, and I’m still going strong! I’ve worn them daily for my walks, and they look almost new after regular washes (see pictures). The quality of the shoe is exceptional, and I’ve been impressed with their durability.However, I do have one suggestion for improvement: the insole quality could be better. After two years of use, I’ve noticed some wear and tear on the insoles.Despite this, I’d still recommend these shoes to anyone looking for a comfortable and durable pair for daily wear. The pros definitely outweigh the cons!*Pros:* Durable, comfortable, looks great even after 2 years*Cons:* Insole quality could be improved*Recommendation:* Worth the purchase, but consider replacing insoles after a year or two for optimal comfort.

   Great value for money!
   I have been a regular road runner since 10+ years.This has been the best running shoes ever that I have experienced. The wide toe style particularly helps as I get enough wriggle space to my toes. The cushioning support to the sole is also very comfortable. Shoe is light weight.I have run 100+ Km with this shoes over 4 weeks on the road. So far this is holding up fantastically. Well-worth the price. Very happy with me buy decision

   Good wear better sole required
   Overall good fit & comfortable but sole is an issue with grip and gets torn especially around heels. Could do better with sole quality.

   It was bad. The flow of ink is so poor and as of now I used 3 pens out of which I had to throw 2 pens because they aren’t working at all. And the one which is working, the flow of ink is very poor – June 1, 2025

   Worst Quality. Didn’t last for even 60 uses
   Worst quality. Hardly used 60 times for walking and sometimes jogging and the shoes are already damaged very badly. Completely disappointed 😔If you are anyway taking money, why can’t you deliver a good product, if this is the standard of quality u maintain, then how can you expect customer to trust you for the next product. Will avoid this company in future

   Good shoes, happy feet
   Among the best footwear you can choose for the health of your feet. It is broad and allows the toes to retain their natural shape and spread, no shoe bites or sores. Adequate cushioning, might need extra insole for running. Lightweight, flexible, comfortable.
