What if I need arch support? I think these would cause more damage.

[@patruff8538]

What if I have heel pain? Doesn’t that need more cushion? Thanks Patty

[@waveyryanlee]

[@patruff8538]

Also, is this a shoe I could use for an everyday shoe? I am wearing Xeros right now. Just starting wearing a few weeks ago. Thank you Patty

[@bettestephens9701]

I love wearing my Xero shoes, another brand of "barefoot" shoes.

😍

[@martinhedlin7257]

Hear hear!

[@springinpages6325]

I wonder why None of the olympic runners wear anything near similar to this shoe....🤔

[@ornobislam5106]

Because as olympic athletes you need the edge to overcome other opponents, health be damned for the duration of a race. They have been training their whole lives for an opportunity to win.

[@philliptjackson]

Olympic athletes get big endorsements to wear shoes. They make more money from the endorsements than winning races, but of course Abebe Bikila won the Olympic marathon without shoes in 1960.

[@stationtostation8311]

Because these would make them slower, the shoes they wear are built to squeeze every inch of performance out of you. But barefoot/minimalist shoes are built for your foot to do its job in a natural way.

Chiropractic Physician??? Quackery

[@kimberlyferrier1312]

Pretty ignorant aren’t you?

[@JJ-ur9yp]

I thought this was supposed to tell us how to train our feet. I guess we’re just supposed to wear minimalist shoes.

[@TheChickenFairy.]

We train our feet simply by wearing shoes that allow the feet to use their muscles, thus strengthening abilities in the rest of the body

[@dovonovich]

Start small and work your way into wearing "barefoot shoes" longer and longer. Also consider Earth Runner sandals.
