I've worn barefoot shoes for eight years. My favorite moment was running a half marathon in a pair of xero shoe genesis sandals. A total Karen was next to me and she started telling me that I was not wearing proper foot wear for running. I started to tell her that I have not had any injuries since I made the transition to running in the sandals and she got really upset and started yelling at me that this was totally inappropriate. I just laughed and sped up a bit to get away from her. It still makes me laugh when I think about it.

I have been walking and running barefoot (actually barefoot with no shoes) whenever possible for more than 50 years (since I was a young child). I didn't know I was a pioneer, I just thought I didn't like wearing shoes. I even ran barefoot in the military when we did our annual physical fitness test. It was the only time I could get away with being barefoot while on duty. : - )

Me too. I don't do long distance running but short distance. I used to use the old ver nike barefoot cuz it was flexible amd doesnt give me blisters. But even then when I do a friendly competition with friends, I take of my shoes and run since I am faster doing so. Just got a barefoot shoes and tried it out. It was amazing it doesn't hurt me as much as when I use regular shoes. Althought I have bunion and flat feet, I am more often barefoot than wearing shoes that why I don't think I need to transition. For me, after wearing regular shoes for the whole day, it hurts to go barefoot. It doesnt do that with the barefoot shoes.

I tried barefoot shoes before but they didn’t stick until I had a bad knee injury this summer. I started wearing barefoot shoes to strengthen my feet to support my knee and now I’m hooked. I live near the sea so I like to walk along the rocky shoreline in my barefoot shoes. It helps to stretch and massage the feet and obviously provides a lot of stimulus. I’ve always liked walking on rocks, I find it to be very meditative, even more so in barefoot shoes.

I've not tried Vivo, but I run into the same issue with Xero and Lems shoes. I walk miles a day, and after about four or five months I have to get a new pair due to wearing out the tread on the soles. The shoes themselves hold up, it's just the soles. For me it's mostly due to concrete and hard surface walking. For the barefoot shoes I wear to work, they'll last a year or more, but there I'm on carpeting most of the day.

More and more small shoe shops are creating barefoot shoes that are more fashionable as well as functional which is nice. I wore Vibram five finger shoes when they were some of the only barefoot shoes on the market 13ish years ago and I definitely looked weird back then, but I didn't care about that. They really help separate your toes when they're so used to being smashed together. I also go barefoot as much as I can, even in my office when I walk around, so it's helped as I slowly transition to doing it more full time and slowly replacing all my shoes. I don't have as much of a transition to get used to them but I am working more on my toes spread.

I got into barefoot shoes a year ago. Because I move a lot and injured my ankle due to lack of flexibility in regular shoes. I've walked everywhere with them for about 2000km now. After my Merrels broke at 1500km I was helpless. Because I bought regular shoes and realised that I can't go back to regular shoes anymore. They went into the trash in a week. I had to search for a long time for new barefoot shoes. Got Vivobarefoot shoes for $180. Best shoes I ever had. Now everywhere I walk or hike I'm always the fastest waiting for everyone else. My friends are constantly amazed and giving me comments like "wow your balance is amazing" & "this looks so easy for you!". I'll never go back to normal shoes again. Barefoot shoes are the king!

Also, I have noticed when transitioning to barefoot shoes, that I needed to be more responsible for and conscious of my foot placement. No more sloppy walking. I learned to be aware of how my feet could be placed on the ground and how my shins, knees, thighs etc were affected by adding in a flow to my walking rather than a slapping action. Awareness was the key to success. I don't wear any other shoes.

Just bought my first barefoot shoes several months ago and have been slowly getting used to them. I walk in them like I did as a kid. It's so natural. I got them because of increasing pain with knees - less joint pain than soft tissue issues. It makes a difference. I just added toe socks to the mix now that winter is coming. I hope to build back to walking miles and miles again.

I just started my barefoot shoe journey about 3 days ago, and I can definitely feel the lack of muscles around my ankles and within my foot. I used to walk about 13,000 steps a day like it was nothing (in regular running shoes). In barefoots, I get tired after like 5,000. Also I noticed that I'm able to walk completely normally with my toes up in the air. What I mean is, my toes aren't doing any of the work, even though they should be. All the work is being offloaded to the stiff soles of the normal shoes, making my feet and toes weak. I know it's going to be a long process but I wanna see the results.

There's barely any material used compared to a normal shoe. They probably cost $5 to make. I don't know about the other brands but Xero says made in China right on the bottom. For this price, it should be 100% made in the USA. You shouldn't need to be rich to try barefoot shoes. That said, I'm loving them. Wish the toe box was a little wider on the outside. But they're very comfortable and so lightweight and breathable. Feels really strange taking them off at the end of the day and you're used to stepping down out of your shoes and your feet don't go down any lower than they were in the shoes. I definitely recommend it even though it's only been 3-4 weeks. I wear them all the time. Haven't worn regular shoes since. I haven't noticed any shin pain or any other difference in my body so far. Walked 13 miles in them at disneyworld one day with no issues. Good stuff.

This is the truth! I delight in seeing this message broadcasted. Thank you for making this video, more people need to know the damage modern footwear causes. I speak passionately about this because my life was changed as well. I wanted to be a runner but I would experience such pain that I gave up. It took a heartbreak and an Amazon ad for the five finger vibrams and I dove right in. The pain of developing the muscles in my foot and lower leg was psychologically transformative. I’m forever grateful for that heartbreak and that Amazon ad.

The real problem is people buying shoes that dont accommodate their feet. I worked at a shoe store and I recommended shoes to customers that fit their lifestyle, activities and feet. 90% of the time customers always settled for cheap shoes that did the opposite due to price over performance/comfort. Moral of the story, buy shoes that accommodate your feet despite the price tag. You wont have this problem. Stop being cheap. You wear $60 nike shoes to run a marathon that were made for casual walking....or you wear marathon shoes to do cross training activities....or the best one yet, wearing running shoes to play basketball 😂 I had an army recruit buy $80 asics that were made for older people to walk in for his army training......I dont think he made it through 😂 you get what you pay for.

I'm walking barefoot for a couple of years now. No shoes at all. It's crazy how humans behave around you. I live in a big city in germany. Especially children are always looking at you :D Of course it's different and a choise you make. For me it is worth it.

One thing to consider wearing zero drop shoes is how you are supposed to be landing each foot. I have tried walking toes landing first (inside the show ofc) instead of my heal and that really activated my hamstrings. It starting out as a weird motion but in time it I got used it. So, it didn’t look like I was abnormally waking for too long. Nonetheless, when I switch back to landing on heel first, my knees starts to tense up for sooooome reason.

interesting,as by me it activated muscle below the calf, i trained to land on the ball of my feet but it was mostly right under the big toe were a struck ,i walk/run 7 miles regularly since about3-4 months ago, i just had to take a 5 day break because i felt a discomfort in my left hip and that was a big NO NO for me, i run to get stronger, not to destroy my joint's, so i looked more into proper running posture and at slomo forefoot runners, looked at usain bolt in slomo and updated a bit my posture and also noticed that their feet are slightly tilted to the outside and they land on the ball starting from next to the small finger and ending at the big toe, distributing the weight more widely ,i tried following that and so far i have not felt my hips, i also started thinking as i am running to just let go and try various different things in how i run to find what't easiest on my body's joints, and am very observant of any little discomfort and adjust my feet and posture so that i don't feel whatever discomfort comes up, i see each join't discomfort is a warning sign, and if not addressed ,it will metastasize into serious pain or injury ,if you have expirienced something relative to what i wrote here, i am curios about your issues and adjustments

on this same topic, ive been working on queing by instead of thinking about foot position for landing, thinking about actively pushing the glute drive each stride. It seems to make it easier to land right over the center of gravity and my feet naturally land how you are talking. @@humility-righteous-giving

I have had a pair of Forest Trackers ESC since September 2023. Now 7 month later I just love them. Used them EVERYDAY…….Carry a lot when I work. 15 kg of TV camera and 10 kg of tripod. Often 5 km of walking in a workday. No problems. Had some issues with my right knee before. Disappeared - and still the same. Googled a lot before I bought them and didn’t believe everything I read. For me - all the good things were true. The Michelin sole……..I can’t see they’ve been used. Incredible. I have always used heavy leather boots. They fit perfectly on my feet. BUT - the way they hold my feet forces my knee to do things in a wrong angle. What I´ve noticed since I started using Forest Trackers ESC is that I have always had a right foot that went inwards. I have tried to struggle that. Now I just accept it. Now It’s more than before - but I just accept that and feel so comfortable. Nobody is perfect :-) I´ve also been trekking in mountains. Thought I needed heavy boots with a lot of support. No - you just start to walk different. Not slower - just a bit more alert. A very good thing no matter what boots you wear. Next step will be the JUNGLE ESC. These Forest Trackers ESC actually changed my walking life :-) Go for it. Just ordered a second pair not to wear the first out. Lots of regards from a man that doesn’t just buy what other people say is perfect. Jesper Brinck - Denmark PS I use Lundhags Leather Grease very often. NOT Wax. Keep them soft and almost waterproof. Haven’t had wet feet yet - and we have had a lot of rain.

You have to learn how to walk correctly instead of take smaller steps on concrete. Use your butt muscles to push you legs back instead of stepping forward. Then your feet fall gently right under your torso and not much impact
