Oranginer Men's Barefoot Shoes - Big Toe Box - Minimalist Cross Training Shoes for Men

wear

I can't wear them anymore since my toe keeps sticking in the hole.

It makes it far too dressed down to be able to wear to an office because they just look like something at 12-year-old would wear.

size smaller

Sizewise, you definitely need to order 1 size smaller pair.

Get a size smaller also or they will be too big.

had to return/exchange


Returned it because they had brand logo printed that leaked and the chemical smell was just too strong

damage

Unfortunately, since I purchased them, one side has a hole at the front where the rubber sole and the top meet.

cheap-quality

They ugliest part is the “toe cap” area it should probably be more minimalist and basic not fake toenails.

The most significant drawback is the ridiculous tow shape and fake toenails on top of the shoe.

flat sole

Without insole they are pretty flat soled which is exactly what we prefer.

running

I have 2 pairs, using 1  pair for jogging and just love them.

comfortable

These were super comfortable, and I really enjoyed having them on my feet for any walk, no matter how long.

Comfortable
Went on a 2 mile hike the day after I got them.

but comfortable
I just got these so this is more a first take than review.

Long time Barefoot style, first time with this brand
It is by far the most comfortable barefoot shoe that I've purchased.

barefoot

So I am happy with the shoes allowing my feet and toes to stretch and walk with a near barefoot feel.

They're more padded than many barefoot shoes which I like a little more cushion which is nice.

Returned Them
I just didn’t like the style in person.

Rather than the usual 8, I ordered a 7 following the guidance and am unfortunately returning the 7 as my toes are completely at the end of the shoe and entirely too short.

width

but these things run really, really wide.

sneaker

If you are used to sneakers with thick, cushy soles and firm insoles, these may feel very ‘minimal’

small-size

The pair I received is actually a 1/2 size small, I should have gotten my normal size.

but they ran very slightly short: odd because my first pair years ago I had in a slightly smaller size than my usual size at the time.

They were super comfortable and had nice flat soles, which I prefer and which is hard to find in women’s shoes.

I have a regular width foot and it is very comfy.

The new ones that are larger are very comfortable

sole

Like the classic nylite only more sole dupport
Bought these to wear at work on my feet.

but I like having the option of shoes with a flexible sole where I can feel more in touch with the ground.

size

Size chart doesn’t represent the real size.

Wish They Were Wider
UPDATE: These are NOT going to work well at your normal size.

but also that you'd, at the very least, want to get them in at least a size larger than your normal size.

These fit about a half size too large because there is none of the protective padding one would expect in the upper of a hiking shoe.

I have wider feet and bunions and these shoes are not for wide feet or for people with bunions.

but they for sure aren't made for folks with wider feet.

I've had these for just short of a month and have been regularly wearing them so they'll be broken in.

The sizing is generous I wear a 10.5 US and these are borderline loose in the length maybe  a 1/4 inch over my big toe.

but after wearing them while working a few 14 hour shifts, I will be looking to purchase other boots from RAX.

I had my grandson, who wears a 13 and they were to big for him even.

sizing

pain

Currently still trying to get rid of the pain in my feet that's kept me sitting down since I returned from my trip.

It caused me a lot of pain, so I can't say I'd recommend them,

They have a “flat sole” feel to them so they provide a very stable platform to walk on any surface.

but feel like a regular running shoe and will be about as durable as  a regular running shoe.

When I laced them up, I felt the immediate support and yet the footbed was soft and comfortable.

When I got home I put them on after unpacking and could not believe how comfortable and weightless they were, the next morning I decided to take them for a walk with my wife (my legs are still recovering) and they are just fantastically comfortable and weightless shoes.

light-weight

They are nice and light weight and have great tread.

walking

I didn’t expect much more than that for $60 and they will meet my needs for rehab walking on pavement or walking trails,

The stitching on the left shoe toe box was too tight, crushing down onto my small toe.

Extremely small
I ordered a size 9 which is my normal size.

toe shoe-box

stretchy

No way to loosen this area, as it is sewn, not in the lace area.

strap

shoe-box

They aren’t a flat sole, they have a nice arch and not too high of one.

Very comfortable and recommended.they are more comfortable than my Brooks running sneakers!

arch

Nice arch and not to high
I really like these sneakers.
