Wow this is another amazing video! I’m so grateful I found you. I’m a dog walker and in the recent months have developed pain and bunion. I just can’t give up walking which is my livelihood. Having worn bad shoes for so long as I’m cheap, I’m now looking for shoes that accommodate my bunion pain. The first video I saw of yours yesterday led me to this one and they’re like godsend. I’m now pondering to purchase one. Thank you so much! I’ll continue to follow you… I love how your baby stretches her toes!

These shoes seem all to be for good weather, walking on dry surfaces. However, my winter is cold and wet early on, progressing to bitterly cold (-15F/-26C, so ice, not wet) and snowy. Frostbite is a concern. The summers can also be very muddy. None of these shoes seem to be very good for those more extreme environments.

As a vibram rep, wear them for a few hours and rotate with other shoes and build a comfortability with them. I have been wearing 5 fingers since I was 13... after a few weeks and you get comfortable with spreading your toes you can get right into them. Just when you get close to the toes (putting them on) inch worm your (wiggling) toes as you slide in. The kso are a great weight training shoe, and my favorite is the v-trail 2.0. I've been back packing in vibrams for a while time, I have back packed 36 (out of 46) Adirondacks peaks in vibrams. You get tons of grip and being able to grip your toes helps!

@ArcheoLumiere Год назад

As a frequent vibram wearer, can you pass on a request for a wide layout model? I tend to wear through the seam between the big toe and the second toe on my right foot, and the layout of the toes has them too close to each other for my fat toes. I'd love to wear my vibrams for longer, but this issue has plagued my experience for every pair I've owned.

@GreasyFox Год назад

It took me a month of continuous using the toe shoes before fully adapted to them. Been wearing them for a decade now.

Very interesting for me having suffered from bunions for 50+ years. I wish you had reviewed Arcopedico brand soft shoes which give me support and bunion relief. I wore out a pair or two then got my first Birkenstocks which are letting my toes spread. I now wear both brands alternating from one to the other. Whether it was the double arch support of the Arcopedicos or the toe spread of the Birkenstocks, I now can walk barefoot nearly painlessly which I could not do for many years. Thanks!

@jeremybentham7447 Год назад

I transitioned too fast into barefoot shoes. While they helped me resolve foot weakness and plantar fasciitis issues, they also seemed to trigger a painful episode of sesamoiditis. The ticker midsole of the Birks and Altras that didn't work for you, actually ended up allowing me to heal the sesamoiditis without surgery. The first two shoes I moved into after the orthopedic boot (prescribed for the fracture), were a Finn Comfort Stretchy shoe with a cork footbed and a tick midsoled Altra Paradigm. Finn/Birk Sandals worked well too, Chacos were close but had too much toe spring and heel lift. Slowly, I transitioned from the Altra Paradigm to the Torin, and also to Finn Comfort Vassa. Camper Peu Sneakers were also useful, they allow you to play with different footbeds. Removing the footbed temporarily to strengthen, then replacing cushioned and supportive inserts for long hours standing (museums, subways). It's a journey, you have to try what method works for you. For me, concrete floors, city sidewalks and parks with completely minimalistic shoes were a no-no. A footbed with a few milimiters of latex or cork usually prevented a flare up. Trails, rocks, grass, sand, gravel...I can walk all day with nothing but a thin rubber out sole. YMMV.

@annej5699 Год назад

I feel for you with the sesamoid pain! Several years ago I had strange pain in my foot only for the sports medicine doctor to tell me, after x-rays, that I managed to break a sesamoid bone. I had never heard of them before that!

@agnieszkasojka4379 9 месяцев назад

I transitioned too fast too and have problem now with quad tendonitis other results articular cartilage changes, thickened lateral colateral knee ligament. My feet are stronger but as a hypermobile will probably never be strong enough to go barefoot again. I added now arch support. When people have bunions they should think about arch support as it might mean they don't have arches strong enough and this could be the cause of bunion in the first place. Never mind it is difficult for me now to get out of the injuries I got from barefoot shoes!

@sharonmitchel1377 3 месяца назад

I recently bought Altra Torins for aerobics. I have been doing these classes for a while in New Balance shoes but started getting MTP joint pain behind my big toe. My dr thought it was gout, but nothing showed up on the xray, or bloodwork. Now I’m wondering if it was from the shoes, exercise, bunions, or a flare up of sesmoiditis I had years ago! How did you like the Torins? I’m looking for a better aerobics shoe, either zero or minimal drop, but flexible toe box so I can wear them for heel raises.

@jeremybentham7447 3 месяца назад

The original Torins had a good concept but many flaws. I had to modify them a bit. However, they have kept improving them; by the version that had the plush (2-3 years ago), they were close to perfect for my feet and intended use (hike, mild run, walks). I bought a couple of the same model.@@sharonmitchel1377

Vibram 5 Fingers- YES! Plantar fasciitis sufferer for years, they really helped along with the bunion from boots. Also had a plantar flexed first ray - all solved from 5 fingers.

@jimjamthebananaman1 Год назад

Plantar flexed first ray isn’t going to be corrected with shoes. It’s a structural issue from either TMT hypermobility, inflammatory arthritis which weakens the tendons/muscles or more importantly you have a pes cavus foot type which was inherited from your parents.

Hi, just recently found your videos and they're so informative! Thank you so much for making them. I do have a question about barefoot shoes: I usually have to wear orthotics in my shoes. Would I have to wear them in barefoot shoes? It seems to defy the purpose of the shoe since I lose some flexibility in the arch with the orthotics. Thanks!

@duvessa2003 Год назад

I have bunions and NEED ARCH SUPPORT. I also need my heel to be higher than my toes to be comfortable. The type of Crocs you showed wreak havoc with my Morton’s Neuroma because they have no structure. I literally just threw away a pair and can now walk again in Danskos, Ariat, and other well-made shoes. That said: Croc makes some extraordinarily comfortable sandals which I wear all summer and even use for easy hikes when it is too hot for hiking boots.

@stevej.6674 3 месяца назад

Millions of humans have been in the process of evolution over millions of years and SUDDENLY people “NEED” arch support, ankle support, cushioning & elevated heels. Looks like you won the timing lottery to be born in time where people felt the need to have such requirements. What would you have done if you were born a mere blip too early in the scale of things where arch support & heels never existed yet???

@pmbluemoon Год назад

I had your channel recommended to me in my feed, and I have to say, I'm glad it was suggested! I just started watching tonight, but will be catching up on your newest ones later on. I have bunions, loved to be barefoot most of the day but had an unfortunate accident with a broken glass bottle when I was in my teens so haven't wanted to be barefoot since. I have been to the podiatrist and they gave me the most awful hard inflexible plastic insoles, they actually made my feet hurt worse! I went back to wearing slippers pretty much, but now that I know about barefoot shoes, I will be hopefully trying a pair in the future once all the snow melts! *Side question: which barefoot shoes are the most latex free being I'm allergic to latex?*

I just received my Whiten shoes and love them..I also use “Correct Toes” toe spreaders and love them, I wear them pretty much all day long in the house but take them off to sleep, I use a single toe spreader if I go out when using my regular shoes..( but now will wear the CT’s in my Whitens ) I took a before picture before starting the CT’s and will take another pic in about 6 months, and then again in 1 year….from what I’m reading and watching, it will take that long or longer to correct foot alignment, so fingers crossed.. bottom line is my hip and leg pain is gone and I do feel more stable on my feet!

This is the best review I have found and discovered Splays. I love em! I have HUGE bunions and there is plenty of room in the toe box. I read that the bunion may be irritated by the seam and I found thats not the case with me. The bunion does touch the seam but doesn't irritate it but again thats just me. They do stretch out after a short time. Also, my foot has actually splayed out more just after wearing these a few times and when wearing toe socks it allows your toes more freedom.

I enjoyed this video even though I do not have bunions. I was just told by a podiatrist that bursitis in my forefoot is what she suspects. I had been to 3 podiatrists 15 years ago and j learned to wear the shoes that made my feet the most comfortable...Anyway, the current podiatrist suggested Birkenstocks will become my best friend while working on the inflammation in my forefoot area. Within 4-5 days of wearing Birkenstocks my feet do not have any pain, except when I walk around without them...then they start to get agitated again. And bonus, since wearing the Birkenstocks my lower back has become pain free since feeling agitated as well the past 5 years. I am currently waiting for the Altra Paradigm to be delivered to me. The other shoe she recommend. I am hoping this is THE shoe I can wear so I can get out and walk for exercise again!

One thing to add.

Let those toes breath. Stretch em out. After a swim, bath or shower... dry those feet/toes real good.

I had a pair of those vibrams. They did take a little getting used to and I found them. Amazingly comfortable and quite nice except for two problems, both of them fit related: not enough vertical height for my big toes at the tip, resulting in the end of the toe pressing down on my toenail while I moved; and not enough length to the little toe next to the big toe, basically, as I walked, my toe kept stubbing against the end of the shoe's toe. I haven't tried any other pairs of toed shoes because these were quite costly and I couldn't afford to keep buying different brands of shoes. But because these are more like foot gloves, it really becomes necessary to find that individualized fit.

Soon it will this kind of information is the basis for conscious evolution. I put the bones back in place with various movements and thereby additionally strengthened the cushions on the foot. Conscious balance is the only way to consciously approach movements.

Is Arch support bad only if you already have a good Arch? I am severely flat footed. I have had a "temporary" surgery for it and I have custom Dr made shoe inserts with a bit of an aggressive arch to support to help keep my feet from pronating (turning inward). While I don't suffer from bunion I am still trying to buy wide toe shoes/boots. My wife on the other hand has very bad bunions and very small feet so it's hard finding shoes for her that fit, but also have a wide enough box for her bunion.

Would be awesome if you could make a review of different type of crocs (Dylan, Echo, Mellow, sandals, etc) - great video!

If your shoes don’t fit or are too tight. Buy shoe stretchers and keep your shoes on there for a as long as possible. It will help. Some shoes I feel might feel good and come in 2 x wide are mens Saucony Phantom and Mens on Cloud.

But what if you have orthotics? I tried on some Birkenstocks recently and because of my bunions, there's a lot of empty space cuz my toes turn onwards so much and by baby toes rub against the edge or my bunion rubs on the leather.

Thank you for this. Please make one to transform Birkenstock.

Would you recommend barefoot shoes for those will fallen arches and over pronation, with posterior tibial tendonitis?

I got my dad Altra lone peak 5s. He has bunions but he’s older and likes the cushion. I think it’s a good transition for someone approaching 70.

What about Boots for Winter Time because I have been wearing Sporto Winter Boots which don't have enough room to move around in the Toe Box!? What's better for my Right Foot Bunion or should I just say both Bunions because than they can be both free to move around more!

Hi, Could you recommend some best formal shoes for women with wide toe box? most women formal shoes have narrow toe box. Thanks a lot

@denisesarazin6753 3 месяца назад

Great video, though I’m really surprised you don’t have any Lems on your list. Maybe it would be a good time for another review since 2 years have elapsed.

@MimiBondi Год назад

Great video. What about those if us who have to wear an insole in one shoe only 9scoliosis)??

@willstevens5113 2 года назад

what kind of shoes do you recommend for people that have to wear combat boots for work, such as in law enforcement or military

@Blueskies7775 2 года назад

As an Osteopath I’m always telling patients about how hard shoes don’t help support the arch, they hinder the bones, muscles, fascia, etc….and turns off the neural feedback to your feet over time, but it’s hard to convince them Birkenstocks don’t help long term for foot mobility.

@agnieszkasojka4379 9 месяцев назад

great, but to wear barefoot shoes your feet need to be ready. People with flat feet can damaged a lot wearing barefoot shoes!

@pranay8227 2 года назад

Please do make the how to video, i had watched the vans one and I've been wearing nothing else. I can't afford to ship barefoot shoes to my country bcs the import duties essentially double their price so your how to video was really helpful and my feet are getting its arch back slowly

@barefootstrength 2 года назад

Im so glad to hear that you found the Vans video so helpful. Here is our DIY barefoot Birkenstocks version: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y1YBJ36jsmY.html

Very much interested in the Birkenstock modification process. Did that video get made yet?

@DBestAdventureQuest Год назад

Interesting video, although I'm surprised you didn't look at Lems Shoes or Ahinsa Shoes. Still, you introduced me to some I had never heard of, so thanks!
