@@differentone_p the only place I wear shoes is if I go into a store/business I'm barefoot pretty much everywhere else. My gym is in my garage too so lifting is alway barefoot
@@vegeta420z6, aren't people always looking at you? Some talk again and again about the same thing? I find it annoying and rather just wear vivobarefoot
@@differentone_p honestly the only people that have ever said anything, usually make compliments. I live in Eugene Oregon, we have alot of track athletes here (who many of see the value of barefoot) and we have a bunch of hippies and rednecks (who also have propensity to be barefoot). But regardless I don't care what anyone thinks of me anyways. Lifes to short to care about trivial stuff like other people's perception of me.
The sole must be made from a better material to last despite being thin and flexible, some shoes have even puncture resistant layers to stop pebbles puncturing the sole, and there is way less demand for barefoot shoes for now, thus less production volume and higher cost per unit. Also, there are cheap barefoot options, but they're made from less durable materials, might be less breathable and generally the "specs" are worse
After having worn basketball shoes to hit the gym for 12 years and them becoming increasingly uncomfortable and worn out, I bought the black dropzero for 160 euros. I expect them to last a lifetime so i don't see why i should question the price. The quality is top, form and function to perfection. Somebody researched to make that shoe as good as it is.
They’re not “by definition minimalist.” They are just designed differently from regular shoes. And if you think that’s a lot for shoes, you should look at some high fashion designer sneakers and boots that are like ten times that price
Glad you pointed that out. It explains why there isn't much else put in this video, and almost makes the price tag and recommendation more valid, though I do wish he mentioned in the video his connection to the company. I was fully about to write this off as an ad for a random probably trash sponsor

@@smokeymcpot69Whitins are not wide enough in the toe box IMO. Xero huaraches are great, but their toe box of their Prio line also seemed a bit tighter and less forgiving than I expected. I wear Vivo barefoot and have gotten various mileage from different shoes (RA for dress style shoe lasted a long time, Ultra have been good for light usage, but would definitely wear through with heavy use, and currently enjoying the Primus Trail II). I did have a pair of boots from Vivo that sucked, but that was 13 years ago or so. But yes, they are not typically found under $100.
Fun Fact: Modem shoes were designed for horseback riding because the wealthy had horses and needed their feet to fit into the stirrups without sliding out while riding. So, they were pointy on the front with a cleat in the back to lock the foot in place. These cleats gave the illusion of the rider being taller. Thus, the high-heal shoe was born.
@@kevinmcd112 well of course you edited your comment by adding that last sentence to be more factually correct. But you still elude that all modern shoes were designed just for horseback riding which is just not true. Egyptians, Greeks and order ancient civilizations used heels not because of horseback riding. Yes, modern high heels are influenced from Persian horseshoes from the 10th century but those didn't have a very pointed toe which is influenced by a different trend that also existed before that time in many cultures. In short, humans have designed shoes for status/fashion and not just function since they started making shoes.
I would love to see more barefoot shoes in commercial stores like Nordstrom, Footlocker, DSW, etc. It would also be cool if major companies like Nike and Adidas can still make their iconic shoes, while also making them good for your foot health. A mix of fashion along with the barefoot benefits should be completely standard. They need to also be sold at minimalist prices along with being more readily available. I’ve bought shoes once online, not the best decision that I made. They didn’t fit, even though I got the size that I usually wore. It’s best if they had it at shoe stores.
Those are probably fine for the jym. I've tried zero stack height shoes outside and they suck for most of the year in Colorado. The problem was my feet would get incredibly cold. Because there's zero instalation between the ground and it being cold here most of the year. My feet would be water temperature it was outside. So they would only be viable for maybe four months out of the year. Their also not grate for the trails as the sharp granite on most of the trails tear them up. I prefer Altra Loan Peaks. They're zero drop with a wide toe box and I think the stack height is 6mm. They are my perfect shoe.
@@brennanleyen yea its cold at night in the desert but im from maine so I dont really consider your weather cold its the same here lol. Colder because its not as dry
its because youre weak and unprepared. you need to teach your body how to deal with the cold the same as you need to train to lift 600 lbs. you need to prepare the feet to be naked the same way by building calluses which protects the feet the same way shoe soles would.
They really make a huge difference. Be it lifting weights, running or simply walking. Idk why bad shoes are still continued at all. The changes in comparison to a normal shoe are so simple and logical, yet so effective and game changing. Never wanna go back.
The ultimate barefoot shoe was, is and will always be, the Vibram FiveFingers. It is wider in the toes area than any other shoe, it even spreads the toes slightly apart, while at the same time is the most secure and stable shoe due to the toe pockets. No other shoe can achieve that, since the wider and roomier the toe-box is, the more unstable and floaty the foot inside the shoe becomes.
You are absolutely correct Doc and I know you also need to make $$$ cause as much as you give out good free content, this still ain’t charity. Many people are willing to switch to these barefoot shoes but it is too expensive 4 most hence unrealistic. Thanks for trying tho.
You know how pants can have different numbers for the different places of measurment (waist, length etc)? Shoes should have that too. Peoples feet dont just grow longer. Sometimes they grow wider or taller. My husband has giant feet and very thick bones. His feet are wider and taller/thicker than any shoe ever accomodates. Our daughter has the same feet. I went 2 years unable to find her shoes because the bridge of her foot is so tall and foot so wide. Shes only a 6.5 so far but the other specs dont really change as shoe sizes go up. The width and height of shoes stay generally the same. I know you can order wide shoes but they should have them in store.
I've started wearing larger boot sizes on the job. I've gained more stability and have less foot pain. There's a tip if you have OSHA requiring steel toed boots.
Switching to barefoot shoes over the past 2 years has eliminated my lifelong struggle with painful feet due to high arches, but I am still struggling to find a good shoe to work in. I work in a dog kennel so I need a barefoot shoe that is waterproof, slip resistant, puncture resistant from top and bottom, and that can be washed and sanitized. I’ve been searching for a long time and haven’t found that unicorn combination.
Thank you for your comment thats the first time ive actually found reasonably priced foot shaped shoes others are normally 4 or more times compared to your recomendations
I got a pair of casual barefoot shoes from Amazon for 40 bux! A few different styles actually. The ones I wear the most have lasted me more than a couple of years of mostly daily use. Got them at the end of ‘21. Wearing them now, the sole in the heels are just starting to wear. Actually a good buy….. 40 DOLLARS
@@sez9660 the casual pair I wear the most are a brand called JOOMRA. They are flat soled with a wide toe box. The upper is mostly woven/knit. I wear them a lot, pretty surprised at how well they’ve held up. Very happy. The other pair that is very similar is from WHITIN. Again, no drop sole with a wide toe box. Those are more like canvas on top and casual/semi formal. They may be made in the same factory. Happy with both. Been a few years since my purchase but pretty sure they’re still in the $40ish price range. I’ve also recently got WHITIN men’s trail running minimalist shoes around the same price that I’m happy with. Finally, I’ve seen some running shoes that are like any other except with the wide toe box..so not minimalist otherwise but that are decent prices. Don’t remember the name of those though. If you use some of these keywords (like wide toe box) on Amazon you’ll find a decent selection. All mine have fit to size. Check out the recommendations for the manufacturer and the reviews. ✌️
I see a lot of comments talking about whether this is sponsored or you have some relationship with the company. From what I can see, TYR was founded in the 80's by an Olympian and his business partner. Can you clear up whether you have any association with the company or specific shoe?
I miss the 70’s. We didn’t have to wear shoes to go places. I’ve been barefoot most of my life now. I never joined “the barefoot movement”. It’s just always what Ive preferred. I wore moccasins a lot to school. Rea moccasins without soles or inserts. Just leather, made by a Native American friend. Im 57 now and I’m barefoot about 98% of the time. I only wear shoes when I absolutely have to. My feet are great. No signs of bunions, like a lot of people I know. It’s healthy, good, and natural to be barefoot.
I read a person’s comment on another channel reviewing the shoe stating the price isn’t worth the materials (without even ever wearing them). Couldn’t be any further from truth. I tell you, these TYR shoes (I have drop0) are manufactured to last long and perform. Have used mine for hikes in mountains of Colombia, jagged limestones and beaches of Aruba, mountain biking, the gym, even sprints. They’ve been caked with mud, beach sand and salt water, each time I just hose them off and dry in the sun, still look like they were when I bought them. Best part are my feet are the last to fatigue. Wear with socks or they are difficult to remove
How am I supposed to believe your recommendation when you partnered with them to build your own shoe? Now every recommendation you make towards that company is simply a way for you to make more money and isn’t genuine.
he also patented his minimalist lifting shoes so that other companies will have a harder time making them it will have to navigate a legal maze to pay him a royalty instead of letting companies spread awareness of the healthier option
They aren’t though, modern running shoes have only been around since the 70s. I walk multiple miles a day barefoot, on concrete and asphalt. Feet feel great.
If converting to barefoot shoes, you can and should try walking on concrete and asphalt barefoot (provided it’s not burning hot) for short distances to re-learn the barefoot mechanics. As with any exercise, start small and build up.
For everyone complaining about the price, think about how much more it will cost you in medical bills when your current shoes destroy your feet and possibly other joints overtime.
barefoot means also to free your toes. shoes = vice and blocking of toe mobility and calf muscles Best it is not only a thin sole, it is more to free the movement of the hole feet
Now only if they made a 0 drop shoe in extra wide, I wear a size 13 5E shoe, have might right ankle fused and I supinate, very hard for me to find a shoe that is overall best for me but find that a 0 drop shoe is better than anything I can find or tried.
I've kept my shitty $25 chinese parkour shoes for 7 years now. They are definitely falling apart now, but they have served me well with 0 drop, thin soles, and wide toe box. Wish i could but them again, but i can't find them anymore. $150 is very expensive, but these actually don't look bad.
People complaining about the price clearly don’t know anything about barefoot shoes or other market options. They have to be very solidly built, perfectly seamed, because they bend, normal shoes don’t do that
Honestly, these shoes are not priced because they are more costly to make. The market is there and they will price it as high as possible, as long as there are people who pay for it.
yeah, maybe he should have stated his stakes in the business, but i think his channel speaks volumes. so, it's likely a good product, although out of reach for most of us.
Been wearing barefoot shoes 3 months now and I’ve been suffering badly with corns since wearing them, very painful, my podiatrist recommended against them
I love barefoot shoes. My problem, however, is the cost. With such a thin sole they wear out quickly but cost as much if not more. $150 for these is too much.
These companies charging more $ for less shoe is insane. What's more insane is that people will see this and pay 5x the money for less shoe that will certainly wear down faster.
Flip flops are dangerous because they slip off the foot easily and are easy to trip on. Though I don't think these barefoot shoes are as good as they claim. Just an overpriced product that probably hasn't even been tested
Considering the shoes have less materials than other shoes I don't see why they are more expensive. Until someone makes a decent barefoot shoe at a reasonable price I'll just do things barefoot.
tbf you aren’t paying for the material, youre paying for the design and low volume production, distribution. makes sense it costs 50% more than normal gym shoes

Outside of winter when my garage is too cold, I am always barefoot when squatting and deadlifting
Extremely thin you say...well this could be a decent Motorsport/Simracing shoe then!
The algorithm really tring to understand my enthusiasm for feet
I like Vans
Amazing Ad
Finally an opinion on a shoe
I like em🤷♂️
please make a wide toe box basketball shoe!
The knees over toes guy ben patrick promotes something like this actually. Not sure if he makes it or sponsors it
i think Xero just released some recently actually
Now only if they made a 0 drop shoe in extra wide, I wear a size 13 5E shoe, have might right ankle fused and I supinate, very hard for me to find a shoe that is overall best for me but find that a 0 drop shoe is better than anything I can find or tried.
Thanks for sharing!
Recommendations for plantar fascitis?
I've kept my shitty $25 chinese parkour shoes for 7 years now. They are definitely falling apart now, but they have served me well with 0 drop, thin soles, and wide toe box. Wish i could but them again, but i can't find them anymore. $150 is very expensive, but these actually don't look bad.
People complaining about the price clearly don’t know anything about barefoot shoes or other market options. They have to be very solidly built, perfectly seamed, because they bend, normal shoes don’t do that
Honestly, these shoes are not priced because they are more costly to make. The market is there and they will price it as high as possible, as long as there are people who pay for it.
They are attracting a market that will pay more, if they feel a product is that much better
He seems believable
That’s great, but how much do they cost?
Just get yourself some Whitin barefoot shoes for ~$40 USD. Super comfortable, wide toe box and zero drop.
Splays are way cheaper. I have several pairs. Theirs are under $100 usd and have all the same benefits.
My swim shoes: 🗿
Can we get some wide toe box socks. That would be awesome 🤩
Yes Please, no one seems to talk about the socks! I've got the right shoes but my feet always still smash together the wrong way in socks ☹️
Toe socks
@@evelyndashinjini makes toe socks
yeah, maybe he should have stated his stakes in the business, but i think his channel speaks volumes. so, it's likely a good product, although out of reach for most of us.
once those tech free shoes leave the vegan price range, i'll check them out.
That's why i prefer to workout barefoot 😂
Within shoes for 40$ on Amazon have worked great for me the last couple of years
"These are my favvourite barefoot shoes" 👁️👄👁️
Been wearing barefoot shoes 3 months now and I’ve been suffering badly with corns since wearing them, very painful, my podiatrist recommended against them
Listen to your doctor and not a youtube PT who cherrypics data, creates problems to sell his solutions, is not in sync woth research amd so on.
I love barefoot shoes. My problem, however, is the cost. With such a thin sole they wear out quickly but cost as much if not more. $150 for these is too much.
The barefoot shoes I have a wider toe box that these appear, but these look nice, although expensive 😅
Thanks barefoot for my iliotibial syndrom 😀..
They may be foot shaped from above but how stretchy if that vertically. My foot actually has volume in the forefoot and mid foot.
These companies charging more $ for less shoe is insane. What's more insane is that people will see this and pay 5x the money for less shoe that will certainly wear down faster.
Make some cute ones pls. Where are all the barefoot shoes that align with mainstream fashion
Don't forget that having a wider toe base means your feet aren't getting squished into a bunion shape either. ✌️✨️
issue with barefoot shoes is that they are more expensive than regular shoes
Check out saguaro bro
Do you have a video for people on their feet at work? Like nurses, restaurant workers, etc.
You are over thinking this. Aldi has good flat shoes for sale every once in a while for like 20 dollars.
My barefoot is the best barefoot. I’d say it’s 99% as good as walking barefoot. Luckily it’s a home gym so I don’t need anything else
Its funny that barefoot shoes are amazing for your feet, but yet flip flops that are basically barefoot shoes doctors say are bad for your feet .
Flip flops are dangerous because they slip off the foot easily and are easy to trip on. Though I don't think these barefoot shoes are as good as they claim. Just an overpriced product that probably hasn't even been tested
My favourite "bare foot shoes" are my socks.
Considering the shoes have less materials than other shoes I don't see why they are more expensive. Until someone makes a decent barefoot shoe at a reasonable price I'll just do things barefoot.
tbf you aren’t paying for the material, youre paying for the design and low volume production, distribution. makes sense it costs 50% more than normal gym shoes
