I absolutely love Vibram five-finger shoes; I own several pairs and have worn them for years. Then I saw Mziho's Barefoot Magic Five Fingers and decided to try them. These shoes run large; I usually wear a size 8-8.5, but these were too big, so I returned them and exchanged them for a size 7, which is the perfect size! I also love the color, and they're incredibly comfortable—I love them so much!
Very durable and comfortable, I wear them daily. They make me feel stable while walking. Made from quality material, very satisfied.
Exactly what I was hoping for as far as fit. I really enjoyed the feel and comfort so much it should beach
Dawg this is wild I feel great
I was skeptical, but they are comfortable, easy to get on and feels like you’re walking on clouds
These things are absolutely A+! I read the reviews and im a size 10.5 and i bought 8.5 2 sizes smaller. I actually took the insoles out and without socks they fit perfectly. I’ve worn them around house, outside, i took them through the river tubing, i even did zumba in these. Its a game changer. They are the ultimate closest thing to being barefoot with rubber feet. They are like a light glove material with rubber just molded into with a proper grip .I’m 100% impressed with these. They held up well . I also did homework on how much they help your back. I genuinely feel like they add a new dimension to your life when you actually use your toes. My balance is better. The grounding thing is real. I would encourage everyone to try them to see for themselves. Its like taking your fingers out of mittens just for your toes.
soooooo comfy and perfect for working out or running errands for the day . I have short toes lol , so they don’t fit all the way at the top of the shoes but they’re my go to. I’m going to order the pink ones soon.
These shoes are super comfortable although if you have flat feet like me, you are going to need some arch support. The problem with that is since the insoles of the shoe runs through the little separate toe areas. It’s kinda hard to find insoles that’ll fit, but they are comfortable. They are helping with the pain in my bunions just not the flat foot part. I have to figure out how I’m gonna fix that part. Everybody thinks I’m wearing socks also but I do get a lot of compliments and questions about them so that’s cool I guess. And your toes don’t fit all the way in the toe pockets
I've worn Vibram five-finger shoes since they first came out, owning many pairs over the years, and they remain my favorite. However, there's always a better option, and considering the price, I decided to try these. I think if you don't want to spend a fortune on Vibram, these might be a good choice, but I probably won't wear them often due to a major issue.
Let's start with the pros, as these shoes have many advantages. I think for most people, the pros far outweigh the cons. The most obvious (and direct) advantage is the price. They cost only half to a third of a Vibram, making them a great option if you want to experience the five-finger style. Because they have five separate toes, I also think they're better than those counterfeit Vibrams that piece several toes together to avoid patent leather.
These shoes are also very comfortable, and the sizing is perfect. Some other reviews complained that the shoes run large, especially around the little toe. But that wasn't the case for me. Only the toe area was slightly long; the rest was just right. I have a short toe, so it's not the shoes' fault. I guess most reviews saying the shoes run large are from people who switched directly from regular shoes to these. Regular shoes can leave your feet in an unnatural shape, and it takes time for them to return to their original shape. I bought a size up for this reason when I bought my second pair of Vibram five-finger shoes. I usually wear a size 43 (EU) / 9.5 (US), and I bought a size 9.5 for reference.
The materials look great, especially considering the price. The upper is a woven elastic fabric, but not a sock-like material. I've worn sock-like shoes before, which, as the name suggests, have a rubber sole. These are much more breathable and seem to hold their shape better. The sole has good grip and isn't one-piece molded like sock-like shoes. The sole is also very flexible, allowing for free foot movement.
I purchased these at the initial price of around ~$59 and so far, I've found them to be a great value -- they're my go to shoe now for athletic training. I use them for weightlifting and cardio workouts. They are very light. You could use them for boating/watersports, but they do not have a drainage hole, so keep that in mind. The overall thickness of the fabric is good, and so far has held up without any fraying issues. Although the gray looks darker in their photos, it's more of a light gray (see my pics). I will note that these give you a lot of grip from their tread design (which is very flexible), so if you do any workouts that require rotation on the ball of your feet (martial arts, etc.), you may have to compensate.
Sizing:
I originally bought my shoe size and found those to be too snug. I sized up half a size and they fit great. These feel like true barefoot as the memory foam liner compresses quite a lot, so you're just standing on the tread. For proper fitment when putting on I've found that you should not put your heal against the very back, push forward so the toes go into their sockets, and then you're fine. If there's any gap to the heel, it's flexible enough to not be noticeable.
Tip for removing them and not accidentally pulling out the inner foam -- pull your heel out, then grab them by the toes and start to pull them off while you clamp down securing the inner foam in the toe wells. If you don't do this, the foam can slip channels and become a pain to deal with.
I recently purchased the Mziho 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes, and I have to say, I’m absolutely impressed! These shoes are incredibly comfortable and flexible, offering a true barefoot experience with the added benefit of protection. The design is sleek and stylish, and the five-finger separation allows my toes to move freely, which is great for natural movement and balance.
The fit is spot-on! I was worried about sizing, but they fit just right and provide enough room for my toes to spread out comfortably without feeling cramped. The material is breathable, which keeps my feet cool and dry, even during long walks or light exercise.
I also love how lightweight they are. It almost feels like I’m walking barefoot, but with the added protection against rough surfaces. Whether I’m hiking, doing yoga, or just running errands, these shoes are my go-to choice now.
If you’re looking for barefoot shoes that are comfortable, durable, and stylish, I highly recommend the mziho 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes. Worth every penny!.
I ordered men's size 10, I usually wear size 12 in boots and shoes, the 10's fit perfectly, I ordered small because comments on TikTok said the size runs big and the Skeletoes I had when I was younger was the same way.
They feel pretty comfortable but I've only had them on for a few minutes.
The top part feel like whatever socks are made of, the bottom feel like regular shoe rubber, they feel like they will be durable.
They have insoles and they don't feel like they are great quality, they stretch all the way into each toe so I doubt you could find replacements, the bottom of the shoes under the insoles feels flat so they may wear alright without them, but I'm not going to remove them till they wear out.
No arch support, they support the natural shape of your feet.
Definitely functional, and definitely good value if you compare the cost to vibram
They're very comfortable to wear. Quiet and non-slip. I ordered two more pairs for my child after they arrived. Highly recommended.
