I actually prefer mine to fit the way yours fit, and had to send back the first pair because there was maybe a half an inch of empty toe at the front that kind of got on my nerves for a shoe that's supposed to fit like a sock.
Good question. Yeah they were a bit tight but they actually stretched a little and are still really comfortable and aren't wearing out even a year later. I mean, I don't use them all the time. Mainly for training in my yard and on the way to training. I just have to wash them frequently especially in warmer days.
Yes, I can't be too picky as my feet are AUS 13 and they don't make them any bigger. After a couple years they are starting to form holes but I still love them and was really rough with them doing river floating etc in Texas this year. They're still great.
I want some, I need em for the lake. Cause the rocks get hot, and want something that is okay to swim with since I'll be jumping off the hot rocks with them
Yeah they work for water as well. Glad I brought them on my Texas trip because I needed them for going down rivers! They're not crazy tight so mine fell off a couple times.
Just use them a lot in various contexts. It's great for TKD practice, or anything really. The sole is very flexible yet thick enough to handle rough terrain. And I found I don't even have to undo the velcro each time, just slip on and off.
Are you supposed to put those shoes on with socks or without? Everyone seems to wear it barefoot but I cant wear any shoes without socks XD its a habit.. By the way, are you Dutch?
I've tried them with socks and they work just fine. I also put in some gel in soles that make it a little more comfortable and secure. You can also just wash them by throwing them in the wash. Yeah my dad is Dutch but I was born in Canada and raised in Australia :P
No rubber bottom on bag, where is the toe cap on the shoe?? And yeah this is too small for you bro sorry:( but u got fake ones. Ur foot looks like it's on top of a sandle with neoprene stretched over the top:( sorry homie u got got:( happens to everyone atleast once
@@therealarien Unfortunately they are copies of Vibram Furoshikis, hence the cheaper price. There are slight design differences between true and fake ones, like the missing toe cap part and yeah you will need a larger size.
@@cwill14 No they are the legit ones I promise. This is the largest size they make. They were actually invaluable for when I was doing water stuff in Texas, having to navigate rocks etc. They look odd because they are odd looking shoes, plus they just don't look good on my feet.
I think it translates to 12 yeah. It's the largest size they make. Still maybe a smidge small but they're going great. Just gotta throw them in the wash frequently so they don't stank
I dunno why i laughed so hard, your foot look funny with that shoes
You don't buy them for the fashion that's for sure
Hi, can you please post a link to the eBay seller so I can try to get my own please? I’m in Australia too... they’re way overpriced in resellers
Yeah sorry it disappeared super fast

How do you like these for martial arts?
It's good for when I'm practicing on concrete outside. Super lightweight
It looks as if your toes will poke through the material soon. Did they after a short time?

Hey, thanks for answering. I really didn't expect a reply & it's appreciated. PS...nice review too.
@@therealarien looks like you should have went a size up!
Own a pair for 2 years .. 0 damage to the shoe ..and i go on crazy ruff trails

Those don't look like the shoes at their website. Your feet look like socks coming out of sandles. Are those fake or did they change the design?
These are the legit ones. Nothing ever looks as good as they present on the website, plus they are a bit too small.

Interesting. How're you going to test em?

Arien Van Stralen isn't adding insoles ruining the entire idea of buying a minimalist shoe?

You sounded so disappointed at the end of the video. :(
Lol I do, but I still like them and use them sometimes!
You wrapped the right shoe the wrong way.
I'm not sure it matters/makes a difference. After a couple months I never undo them. I just pull them off and on so I don't wear out the velcro
those are fake
No, they're legit I promise. They're still going strong!

Size 12?
