I got these hoping it'd be like being barefoot, anyone who wants them for that reason be warned. They feel rather uncomfortable and have very little toe maneuverability. I feel the biggest problem is that the bottom of the shoe just doesn't feel well connected with the sole  This hinders natural movement of the feet the most for me.<br /><br />  If you are getting these simply to have a very flat shoe, on the other hand, these will do just fine. Would make a perfectly good workout shoe. They aren't too badly uncomfortable or anything, just not what I was hoping for.
