Hello sir, I think you forgot to mention that the original are the Dafu, the top one feyues are a contractor of the dafu. The Dafu company renamed the shoe from Feiyue to Dafu and at the bottom of the shoe instead of green triangle they have a red dot. People say that the Dafu have thicker sole

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Thank you for the info!

[@YoungChia]

All I wanted to know was how flexible they are, glad you showed that. Been committed to Vivo shoes for years now and am looking for something a bit more affordable.

[@bbehzadi413]

Just placed an order after finding your videos. I bought one pair for walking and casual wear and another for gym (squatting and deadlift)

[@SonOftheBattleCry]

How are they ?

[@bbehzadi413]

@@SonOftheBattleCryThey’re great! Personally I prefer my white pair I just think they look better in person! Want to get a hi top pair next! Also perfect squat and deadlift shoes!!

[@tommyhagvall6856]

I have tried many different types of shoes for wushu/kung-fu. These are the best so far in terms of overall performance, grip and experience. Time will tell how the last but they where very afforable priced so buying another pair seems very likely. Thanx for the quick service and great video review that caught my attention as well as meeting my needs. Only thing I have to do after being very swetty is to re-tie the shoelaces once per practise after 1 hours of use.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Hey Tommy, Thanks for the message and yes tying your shoelaces is always a good idea during Kung Fu sessions. Glad you like the shoes, you should find them pretty durable. If you're training on hard ground, gravel etc, they will wear out fairly quick but on grass, indoor surfaces you'll get loads more life out of them

[@AlCalvo]

Could you please share an update? We're they durable. I just got my own pair.

[@thewombatking]

Thanks so much for this info dawg! The whole feiyue thing is a minefield! Those black with red triangle high tops with the thinner flatter sole are by far my favourite feiyue. The build quality overall seems to me to be far superior. I’m only a few weeks into a fresh pair but the sole seems to hold out way better. Not as squishy but as flexible. Are you saying there’s no way to order these from China and know your getting the right ones? To clarify I’m in Australia and I’d be keen on retailing them to the public.

[@mokkorista]

I bought them once, found them crappy. I ended up with Nike CR7, indoor soccer shoes, nothing ever beat them. Perfect grip, fits like a glove, stable feet.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Wow really? I've never heard of someone using football shoes for Kung Fu. The football shoes will probably last longer but thats why they will roughly be about £90 and the feiyues are only £25

[@miscible21]

Perhaps a dumb question, but can you run/sprint in these? I would much prefer this over a pair of running shoes at the moment as most of my exercise consists of lifting followed by a sprint after every training session.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

not at all, We normally recommend just doing kung fu with the feyiue shoes but i have known people to do all different types of gym work with them like, Lifting, Cross Fit, Yoga, Gymnastics and even Running. it really depends on the person wearing them.

[@kim_2014]

The Real & Original Feiyue are from China NOT France, stole the design and intellectual property. The Real and Original are affordable and they also have the circle logo on the bottom of shoe.

[@davevelasquez7403]

True. What is being shown here is not the real and original Chinese Feiyue

[@cioch84]

Can the original ones still be purchased?

[@cryptokers123]

yes, it is the original look at the bottom of feiyue shoes of shaolin monks when they are stretching you ll see the triangle

[@Cautious_Gamer]

Hello Enso Martial Arts Shop. I have mild cerebral palsy and flat feet with extra bones in them. I've been looking for a minimalist pair of shoes that are comfortable, supportive, durable and breathable. Would you recommend these over a pair of $260 Vevo Barefoot shoes? I'm currently wearing a pair of classic kung fu shoes and I feel like these would be an essential upgrade without breaking the bank.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

These shoes are extremely comfortable and do give you a bare foot feel, we do not know if they will be the perfect shoe for yourself but as you said they wont break the bank so can always give them a go

[@fuckthisworkbitch]

Would you recommend these for squats/deadlifts?

[@EnsoMartialArts]

They give you a bare foot feel and we have had a few people who use them for deadlifting and squats

[@alessandro9185]

I used to wear them 9-10 years ago 😅

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Wow thats Crazy!!

[@romdruyan]

Should I avoid wearing them to run in the rain? I want to workout outside and its raining so im afraid it'll somehow ruin them in the long term?

[@mhm2908]

I have the low top green triangle shoes, but the soles are so curved (concave) that I am unable to get a proper flat grip on the floor. I would not recommend them

[@djilyaz]

I was checking these out and I saw them really cheap, but the ones I saw were the vegan leather, not canvas, is vegan leather bad

[@_king.carter]

I should’ve bought these when I visited China a few years ago.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

yeah they are everywhere in China!

[@jolouis5537]

Awesome video!

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Thank You!!

[@pimprenelle6824]

Thanks for this video. What about Lutai wushu shoes ? They look like Feiyue and have the green triangle

[@chinaahpek]

bought mine from ebay. But mine has red circle in the bottom. Did I get the wrong one. But is cheap and still very comfortable.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

The Red circle is a very old style, haven't seen them for a while. They should still be from the factory in china and be okay for training.

[@Nabiyah1]

The red circle is typically the originals, meaning not inherited through the original company (Dafu) or it's rights being sold or via some longstanding international trademarks war that were legally, but questionably acquired. Does it say Dafu in the circle? What about inside the shoe? What is on the tongue?

[@haisulii]

The red triangle hi-top version had too hard sides and the canvas broke within 3 months for me, been more lucky with the green triangle one.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

We will always try and get the green triangle in!

[@beattender]

Hi, have you experienced a creaking noise from the back of the feiyue low top? Mine do this after about an hour wearing them around the house. I’d be interested to know if it’s common or a defect of my shoes. Thank you.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

they do crack and break over time, but this can normally take over a year to happen, obviously it all depends on how much you wear them.

[@cheyennew811]

How does the sizing work for US shoes sizes? I wear a EEE width cowboy boot. My foot width is around 11-12 cm if I remember my conversions correctly. Would a Feiyue shoe fit a foot that wide?

[@SnoozeTheRecluse]

They’re pretty narrow

[@gabriellameattray9778]

I can't contact customer service because I live in the U.S. What size should I buy if I wear a size 9 in women's (U.S)?

[@Ogokao]

Are they good for wearing them whole day , using them as working shoes , while standing whole day on your feets ??

[@EnsoMartialArts]

We have had quite a few people buy them who wear them for work/ general day to day stuff. They will wear out fast depending on how much you wear them and how much you move.

[@masterkoi29]

Feiyue was plagiarized by a french company. Using a Chinese brand which was originated from the idea of chairman mao was absurd. There's no such thing as feiyue language in french. Feiyue was the brand since chairman mao era. Feiyue brand must be protected and must be listed as intangible brand of china as it has already 90 yrs. Feiyue started as a military shoe company and started manufacturing rubber shoes when they have many supplies of rubber. Feiyue wasn't a french brand.

[@EnsoMartialArts]

There is the french Feiyue for fashion and there is the Chinese ones that we get that are more for training

[@Nabiyah1]

You are correct. As the story goes... The original creator & producer of Feiyue is DaFu. DaFu started as a Tire Company but got into shoe manufacturing because of their access to exorbitant amounts of rubber. DaFu binds their shoes by literally baking them, which is one of the reasons their brand/ version remain superior to the French & other Knock Offs. During the time the classic version (red blue stripes) came out DaFu was primarily making military shoes (military demand died out in late 1950s) and that shoe is actually inspired by the military shoe DaFu was making at that time; although Feiyue's first shoe was marketed & sold in 1920s. The name of DaFu's creation (Feiyue) comes from the Great Chinese Military General Yue Fei (1103 to 1142). Yue Fei was posthumously named Wumu by Emperor Xiazong (1169) & again later granted the posthumous noble title "King of É" by emperor Ninzong (1211). Yue Fei was well trained in military strategy, the 108 weapons of war, and many other styles of learning including Emei Dapeng Qigong & was said to have mastered & demonstrated extraordinary abilities, some even described those abilities as _supernatural._ When China opened its market to the world in the 80s, DaFu was then competing with the likes of Nike, Converse, Adidas, and such, and soon found themselves bankrupt, and at which time they chose to sell the rights of Feiyue to two men (Wansheng & Qinlong). In 2005, Patrice Bastian (French Owner of rights to Feiyue, Feiyue International LLC) learned of the shoe while Training in Shanghai & saw Feiyue's potential in the world marketplace & bought the rights to Feiyue, but instead of buying from the actual owners, he bought from a contractor (a licensed manufacturer) & since the True Owners, including original creators never registered for an International Trademark for the Feiyue brand, and Bastian did, Bastian won the suit that was filed against Him in a France Court by DaFu. The win gave Bastian the rights to the actual name & restricted DaFu to selling their version, the original version, to China only. In the words of the owners (DaFu), "From an Intellectual Property perspective, it had a negative impact on us, but in terms of brand development and reputation, I think it's helpful." Now DaFu has rebranded themselves to differentiate themselves from the French version of Feiyue by putting DaFu on soles with red circle (DaFu) & writing Dafu on Tongue & Inside the shoe. in 2014, the French Version was sold to BBC International a US based footwear company. So as it goes, DaFu owns the rights to Feiyue in China (Manufacturing licenses are also granted to Chinese company that sports the TOP ONE logo with green triangle on bottom) & the French version, now owned by BBC owns the rights at the world level, except China. As a 27 Year Veteran Martial Artist, I personally lean to the originals, which are constructed to support MA training. As Enso Owner has noted: French version is more "fashion" focused. They are less flexible, less durable & thus less suitable for training. Feiyue (pronounced Fay-Yoo-Ehh). The Feiyue journey is truly a BitterSweet one.

I've been dealing with plantar fasciitis for the past 6 months on and off. I just stopped wearing HOKA shoes because they were giving me a lot of pain. I've been walking around the house barefoot most of the time. I really want to transition to minimal shoes. What do you thiunk about wearing these as a transition shoe, wearing them lightly/moderately for daily things?

[@sb-vy8cw]

I've transitioned into barefoot running and have just received a pair of Feiyues as a minimalist casual shoe. These work great! As well a being comfortable and allowing your feet to move freely and get stronger they also look really good. Lots of minimalist shoes look awful but I will ve sticking with Feiyues.

[@haisulii]

I think they're good as a minimalist shoe, just a bit tighter in the toe cap than more barefoot shoes so don't use a too small size or it'll squeeze the toes. The only thing I've had to do while transitioning is stretching the Achilles tendons a bit before going running.

[@RG7321BK]

They’re looking so cool. But unfortunately they‘re way too tight for my toe‘s 😢

[@EnsoMartialArts]

They can be quite tight! have you tried going up a size?

[@sb-vy8cw]

Have you ever come across a pair that have the green triangle but instead of "top one" they say "taiji wen" on the tongue with a ying yang logo between the two words. Canvas is slightly thicker and the sole is thicker also. FEIYUE font is slightly different also. Any info on these?

[@jamienorman4029]

Whats the difference in the green triangle and the Red circle on the bottom?

[@EnsoMartialArts]

Ooo good question, they are all still Feiyue but he green triangle are the original feiyue shoe design. The red triangle are slightly hard rubber so better for day to day use but they are prone to splitting. The green triangle are softer so lots more grip but can wear out faster if you use them as a daily shoe. Much better for training though

[@mientone]

From what I've found on Reddit, these are made in three factories: French - Established in 2006 by Patrice Bastian, the shoe's sole has a red circle, thicker and narrower sole than other 2 chinese brands, thicker fabric, less fit for martial arts than the other 2 chinese brands. DaFu - Originally a factory for rubber, they started making feiyue shoes way back in 1920's, the outsole has a red circle, thicker and less flexible than "Top One" manufacturer, i think has same width as "Top One", looks slightly better than "Top One" shoe, the logo on the shoe is "feiyue" as opposed to "feivue" (notice the 'y' looks like a 'v') that the "Top One" shoes have. The shoe model is 501. Top One - Also produced shoes since way back, these are the original shoes that shaolin monks and martial artists in china have been using, the outsole has a green triangle on the bottom, the outsole is thinner and more flexible than the "DaFu" shoes, the logo looks like "feivue" ('y' looks like a 'v'). The shoe model is 511. I have also seen high top "Top One" shoes with a red triangle on the bottom on aliexpress.

You're selling Feiyue shoes with a 'green' triangle. These shoes are made for the French and international market and cannot be sold within China. The red dot Feiyue, is called Dafu Feiyue, and has a round sole, instead of the flat sole that is produced for the French market. The red dot Feiyue can only be sold within China. You can buy the Dafu Feiyue for 30 RMB. That's about 21 Pounds. You're selling it for 23 Pounds, that's 200 RMB...
