Here's my unsponsored review on toe shoes!

(They're not always called that, but I liked that the best out of all the names).

I mentioned this style in my first barefoot shoe review, but I tried a slightly different type this time and wanted to go a bit more in depth.

Pros:
-Comfortable
-More secure than flip-flops, with similar freedom
-Blends in a little more than other toe shoes I've seen.

Cons:
-Some may dislike the comfort and prefer something a little more raw.
-Depending on the individual, may not fit all situations (some business environments, perhaps).
-A bit pricey.

I dedicated some time in my previous review to mention that the health benefits of minimalist shoes are somewhat controversial. I still like them, but some people may want to take some of the claims with a grain of salt. Like many trends, there may be benefits that are slightly overhyped (and not always by the companies).

I know some people are hesitant and skeptical about things like this. Totally understandable. I mostly focus on the comfort, usability, and convenience of these more than other benefits.

If you're not used to minimalist shoes or walking barefoot, I recommend trying them for a few minutes a day to acclimate yourself and see how you feel.

Consult your doctor and podiatrist before trying.

Overall, I like these. I gave my dad my other pair. I might give him these too if he wants them, but otherwise I may wear them myself. I'd consider using them for some workouts.

My daily shoes will probably still be either flip-flops or a sneaker-style shoe (currently a minimalist one from Xero).

The main shoe I'm wearing here is from @wearpeluva

The blue shoe is from @xeroshoes

The black toe shoe is from @vibram

All of these brands sell different styles of shoes, if you want to check them out. Different people may prefer different brands or styles.

"Unsponsored" here means I bought all of the shoes shown. I make no money for saying good or bad things about them. I don't have a promo code either - but tell them I said hello (I try to be on friendly terms with most).

Hope this can help. Have a great day!
