These are truly minimalist, so very close to the ground, good ground feel, “squishy” for lack of structure (not a built shoe with arch support, etc, sticking true to minimalist labeling). True rubber sole is sticky / tacky, makes squeaky sounds if you ever drag your feet. After a few months these show very little wear. Estimated 70 miles on these shoes.
Pros:
– Properly shaped! I have wide feet and these actually fit without sizing up to get the width right.
– Very breathable tops (I tend to have hot feet)
– They look nice and do not attract a lot of lint / dust / etc. even on pure black shoes
– Good traction
– Excellent ground-feel, and very little interference with the foot movement
– Works with thin (no show) or thicker socks
– Laces have not untied once
– Almost no signs of wear despite regular use and a lot of walking
Cons:
– Lack of padding I’ve noticed in some foot soreness a couple times (I am normally barefoot at home on concrete, carpet, tile, dirt, rocks, etc) so there is a little bit of a mismatch between substrate and foot movement with the completely flat sole (no lugs).
– Strong rubber smell from soles and lack of padding underneath to absorb sweat means these can develop odors quickly, but since there’s less material to hold bacteria they clean up fast / easy to maintain. Easy to get the smell out.
– Not suitable for athletic movements like jumping a longer distance, especially quick lateral changes (think pickleball) because the foot slides on the sole since the shoe is so “squishy” and the toebox so wide. These are for cruising, walking, chilling.
These are a good Spring – Fall shoe. I typically only wear flip flops unless it’s raining / snowing / I have to go somewhere shoes are more appropriate (or it’s like 20F) so these are a nice alternative where I have a casual footwear that can go places a flip flop can’t.

Since the shoe is marketed as a training shoe, I wanted to test it for training. I recently messed up my shoulder and had to shift my workouts to mostly running, so I needed new running shoes. This was my first pair of barefoot shoes, and I was unsure what to expect.
After six weeks of running a 6.3 mile loop around three times per week, here are my observations:
– My shins and arches feel fine. I was expecting some discomfort, but none came
– I feel slower, but my times are roughly the same. It just feels more difficult to maintain momentum
– For some reason, my calves are destroyed. I had a hard time walking after the first few runs, but it has gotten better over time
Ultimately, I chose to buy traditional running shoes, but still wear these as a great casual/everyday shoe.

So, the gift was a hit! Size was good and they are so comfortable for his painful feet. He is happiest barefoot, and the shoes allow him to feel like he is. He made a comment, I wish they were allowed at work. He works in a warehouse.

Me gustó mucho el diseño y color. Ya estaba familiarizado con otra marca del mismo estilo, pero como no había en este color probe con esta otra marca y nada mal.

These are my first barefoot shoes, so I’m by no means an expert, but these are exactly what I was looking for. Zero drop, wide toe box. The insole is nice and comfy, if you take it out you get the real deal. They look decent. Bend very well. And best of all they have a rigid heel cup so you can skip them on without bending over. Surprisingly good. Quality also looks to be very good for the price.

Good shoes. I got x2 size 12, white and gum v1 and gray and gum v2
Pros:
– wide toe box, toes aren’t being pushed together and can even splay my toes a little bit
– pretty stylish: v1 model is a good sporty casual look, works best with no shoe socks and shorts or narrow ankle pants like joggers or skinny jeans; v2 model is more like a casual vans look and feel but has the same durable mesh material over the toes, v2 also doesn’t have the loop on the heel so not quite as easy to slip on
Cons:
– gets dirty easily (at least the white v1 pair) but I threw it in the washing machine, and it cleaned up nice.
They both feature the same sole that is zero drop (zero heal rise) and have great ground feel. They have almost too much grip on a waxed floor (might squeak like basketball shoes in a gym), and are a bit slippery when wet, especially metal surfaces.

Found these on while searching for a replacement of my overpriced Vivo barefoot shoes. I thought, for $30 these were worth a shot!
I’m blown away. They look way better than the Xero barefoot shoes I tried. They feel well built, and have some elasticity that makes it easy to slide my foot in without retying my shoes while still feeling secure. There’s plenty of space in the toe box. I found them more comfortable without the insole.
I was so impressed I bought a second pair. The fit and style is consistent between them. I could buy a third pair and it would still be cheaper than those ugly Xero shoes. I could buy SIX pairs and it would cost the same as Vivos.
Even if they’re end up not being as durable as my Vivos were, the value and sensible style options means I’ll almost definitely buy Joomras again.
They’re exactly what I want and the cheapest pair of shoes I’ve owned since Payless shoes in 2004
