I adore these shoes. I wore my first pair of red ones, almost daily for a year. They are still great, but I scuffed the very soft leather across the toe. They are now work shoes and I bought a new pair of red ones. I do not wear other shoes anymore, I can feel the strain in my feet and back, so I am pretty much permanently hooked on these shoes.I just bought a black pair as a neutral to go with my other clothes. I fear that they will be discontinued so I may have to buy a life time supply! One flaw, they can gap, if made wrong. I did send one pair back that gapped too much (purchased on-line from an outlet store. I also went to an outlet store and found the same problem in the shoes they had there).

Love these shoes! I was afraid I was going to have to have foot surgery. Every pair of shoes I wore hurt my feet. A friend told me about these so I ordered a pair. They're great. The left shoe seems a little tight, but I think it must be just a smidgeon larger than my right, plus I have problems with swelling. I would like to have a little more padding in the sole.

Thank you for this great review. We are glad you are happy with this style being a first time user of Barefoots. For a style with a little more padding we would recommend looking at the Bare Access Arc 2.

This shoe can go from work (looks cute with slacks, jeans, or long skirts) straight to the gym! As a recent bunion surgery survivor, I am just now getting back into real shoes, and this Merrell shoe is, once again, the most versatile and comfortable shoe I have ever worn! One thing I did learn several years back-- do no put this shoe in the dryer. Even though they are called washable, the dryer shrinks them just enough to ruin that perfect fit.

Thank you for the awesome comments on this barefoot shoe. It is great you find it perfect to wear with lots of different outfits and even straight into the gym. While this style is machine washable (cold water, gentle cycle) we always recommend air drying.
