Customers say

Customers find these barefoot sneakers comfortable, with feet feeling relaxed and no aches, and appreciate their quality, appearance, and benefits for foot health, particularly during workouts that involve squatting. The shoes are well-made, hold up well for street running, and provide pain relief, with customers noting no knee or shin pain and reduced bunion discomfort. The fit receives mixed feedback - while some praise the wide toebox, others find them too small. The flexibility aspect is also mixed, with some finding them very flexible for better walking while others note the upper material feels stiff.

Not for Wide feet
I am absolutely in love with the womens' Prio sneakers. They have protection on the sides and front toes, like regular shoes, so they can last and be roughed up a bit. There's mesh around also, for breathability. The souls have a lot of traction, and durability for being so thin, so they've lasted over a year so far. I would consider these even slip resistant for the most part. The laces are adjustable to shape to your feet. They have awesome light reflection straps in the back and on the sides. They are absolutely flat, with Xero drop, giving you better posture. Without my orthodontics, they work better for improving bunion pain. Oddly the orthotics must give too much lift. But...they should have a wider toe box for wide feet. If you're in between sizes, I'd suggest sizing up. And they don't offer them in a mens' 5.5 or 6, to order for a slightly larger toe box. Bunion people may not be satisfied with the width. They are super light and flexible and give you a free feeling. You can feel the ground and some rocks, but not too much. I believe the souls are perfect for a sturdy yet light, barefoot shoe. If anyone knows of a comparable brand that are wider, please let me know. Or different line of Prio. Thank You!

    Just so everybody knows, around 2018 the company adjusted their sizing. I recommend going a half size down from your usual size. The company says they are now true to size, but I find it is still just a tad large. I am a 7.5 normally but I got a 7 - at first they were snug and it seemed like they would be too small since my toes reached the edge of the shoe. But after walking around the house in them a whole day they fit perfectly. They were comfortable right away. I don't think they need any breaking in after a day of light use.

    I am used to barefoot shoes and cannot do the floppy beavertail clown shoes look and feel. Been there done that when first starting out. I need to depend on accurate footwork and wanted a barefoot shoe for parkour. I believe this is it. Also just wanted to say how comfortable these are. Plenty of ground feel and wide toe splay for days, but just enough cushion that you can do sports, hike, or walk in them all day on pavement.

    Update: I've been wearing these for a year and they're still in good shape. My go to shoe.

    I was looking for a flat shoe to use for weight training. I have wide feet and I was happy to see they had a wide option. These have a flexible sole and I love that the sides cinch tighter as they are intertwined with the laces to provide better support. I was using running shoes for my weight training sessions and my regulat running shoes were just unstable. These fit snugly once tightened around the ankle and they do not compress my toes. I feel very stable in these shoes. I know I will have a better footing in these and I can use them for deadliest and squats without distorting my form. I already want to buy another pair for walking. I noticed I was standing upright better; unlike running shoes that cause me to lean forward. Definitely recommend them to anyone considering a minimal shoes. I probably will stick to my running shoes for running and better cushionint but these are my new favorite!

    È stato il primo tentativo con le barefoot, ma le ho restituite.
    La scarpa in sé è comoda ma calza piccola serve ordinare un numero più grande.
    Ho deciso di restituirle piuttosto che ordinare il numero giusto per 2 motivi :
    1- la punta non è poi così ampia come mi aspettavo, anche se, ovviamente, è più ampia di una scarpa ordinaria.
    2- troppa stoffa sul dorso del piede!
    Il materiale è si molto flessibile ma spesso, per questo motivo il piede risulta un po' "pagnotta ".
    Sulla comodità alzo le mani.
