Xero ShoesBarefoot Running Shoes for Men | HFS Road Runner Men's Shoes | Zero Drop, Wide Toe Box, Minimalist

I have the previous version of this shoe as well. Both run small in size. Get a 1/2 size bigger than you normally would. The HFS II is very different from the original. Do *NOT* think this is an upgraded or improved or better shoe than the original. It's night and day. The original is an outstanding BAREFOOT running shoe with a very thin sole through which your feet can actually feel the surface of the ground. I love running in those shoes but they are tiresome walking around in all day for hiking or city walking. The opposite is true with the HFS II. The sole is clearly stiffer, possibly slightly thicker too. It's an awesome shoe for the whole day for minor hiking, city walking, going to work or going out. It's also dressy enough to use for social events. But for running, it's a big NO for me because there's no barefoot feel to them. IMO...

I bought these as a multi-purpose shoe for walking to-and-from every day tasks in the city and for weightlifting. Just altered my workouts for more endurance and stamina, rather than the previous focus of power and strength.Incredibly comfortable shoes, despite the founder's YouTube commercial suggesting that they're uncomfortable and explaining why they will be uncomfortable to begin with.Yes, for the first few days, there were some minor aches and pains in the feet, but that's from all of those years of not adequately using all of those smaller muscles, joint, and ligaments in the foot and ankle area from the pillow-plush cushioned shoes I've bought over the years.After naturally adjusting my stride, pace, and step cadence walking, I feel much more stable and secure to the earth than previously. If you're in martial arts or foot-heavy sports, you'd definitely appreciate that aspect.

Have been wearing these shoes about 3 months. Love the shoes. Wish I would have learned about wide toe box shoes years ago. Price is on the high end and they run a little small for me on the size chart.

Had to return/order multiple shoes. My size is a 10. Ordered a size 10. They were small. Ordered 10.5. They were small. Ordered 11, they're small but functional. I reality, I probably could wear a size 12 in these shoes. They're basically women's sized shoes. You can take out the insoles to make them a little roomier.

Been rocking the Prios for over 2 years now and decided to give these a shot. The soles feel a lot thicker than the prios, which isn't a bad thing. The issue I had was none of the sizes fit me. I started with an 11.5, which I wore in the Prio, too small. Bought a size 12 and it was barely any bigger. Then bought a 12.5 and they're too big. Hopefully this problem is specific to me so other people can enjoy them cause they're cool shoes. But looks like the HFS isn't for me.
