text: For those looking to do barefoot running without the irritating toe gloves that some others love, this is a good alternative. However, not everyone is suited for barefoot running. Best to try out before committing to a pair of shoes.<br />As it's more of an anatomical issue with my feet, I can't really gauge if the shoes are really good compared to other barefoot / minimalist shoes. Ended up having issues with my feet after trying for some weeks.
