I don’t think I’ve ever read the “Press” page on a website before. But this part was interesting. But that was like a year ago. How is he working out for you? I am glad that nothing about the shoe itself has changed. Let me just say that I was very impressed and surprised at the nature of the sole. I thought it was just going to be a flat piece of rubber cut on a bandsaw. But I was VERY pleased to find a professionally made (from a plastic injection mold?) sole in my mail box.

WHY BAREFOOT?!

There are LOTS of reason you'll want to get out of your regular shoes and go barefoot or wear Xero Shoes. But the "barefoot world" is full of mythology, contradiction and, frankly, lies told to you by giant shoe companies. Even ones that sell minimalist shoes.

How do you discover the truth? How do you find the fastest and easiest way to start enjoying being barefoot or minimalist, whether you're a walker, hiker, paddle boarder, or runner? Simple. By signing up and receiving our free 7-part series: "Feel The World: How to enjoy the fun and benefits of being barefoot"
