I’ve not hidden the fact that the original Xero Shoes HFS is one of my favorite barefoot shoes. It’s minimal, flexible, and locks onto the foot perfectly. So, when I heard there would be an HFS II, I was worried things would change. To be honest, it is a different shoe now. In my mind ..read more

When I first saw Bahé running shoes, I was intrigued. They seemed to serve an area of the market most brands had forgotten. The 10mm stack height sits right in the middle of the barefoot offerings from Xero Shoes and Vivobarefoot but is lower than cushioned “footshaped” shoes from Altra and Topo. But that’s not ..read more

Today’s solution is the Lems Primal 2! The Lems Primal 2 has a drastically different design than you’d see from many other barefoot brands. A more durable upper ..read more

I’m a big fan of the original Primus Lite III, but my only complaint was the stiff recycled upper used to provide a solid lockdown. The Primus Lite Knit seems to be a logical solution, but can it perform as well as the standard Primus Lite and still provide a great fit? In this post ..read more

The Vivobarefoot Primus Trail FG and the Primus Trail Knit share the same platform but differ in the upper. As you would have guessed, the Knit uses a sock-like material to place the foot onto the sole, whereas the standard version is an interesting hybrid. So which upper works best? And which of these shoes ..read more

Many of you have asked, so here it is. A WHITIN barefoot running shoe review! The cheap alternative to the big brand minimal shoes! I get it. Vivobarefoot shoes are expensive, and Xero Shoes can be, depending on the time of year. But are you really saving money by opting for the cheap alternative, or ..read more

Recently, I was on a push to try out anything cheap and barefoot to see if we could find some diamonds in the rough for our running pursuits. Sadly, I missed the target with this WHITIN Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneaker (yes, that’s a mouth full). Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great, WIDE, casual shoe ..read more

If you’ve been interested in zero drop shoes for a while but are put off by the Altra prices, WHITIN zero drop may be for you. Their zero drop wide version comes in at ⅓ of Altra’s cost and has many features you’d typically see in the higher priced brands. It’s got “some” cushioning, but ..read more
