Vibram Women's Furoshiki

This is my 2nd pair of these shoes. I had the first pair for over 2yrs and they were in great shape still until a certain puppy decided he liked them for a chew toy.I have moderate arthritis in both feet, and these minimalist shoes are great for when I go walking, shopping, etcYou feel like you are barefoot, their easy to slip on and off and fit great.They cost more, but are well worth the investment!

Not good in the snow.As someone who likes minimalist shoes and dislikes wearing socks, these are wonderful! I've been wearing them daily for several months now (even through bad weather like rain and snow) and they are holding up great, there is no external wear and tear.They are breathable so my lack of socks (are you supposed to wear socks with these?) doesn't make my feet smell as bad as normal shoes and I don't need to wash these as often as my old ones.The tops were a little tight at first (I couldn't comfortably close the velcro all the way), I was worried I just had fat feet and never realized it, but they've stretched out a bit with time.Overall, great shoes. I'm somewhat poor/cheap and was nervous about spending so much on shoes that looked like they would wear out after a few months, but they feel amazing and are holding up great!

These are my first pair of barefoot shoes, and I am pretty much sold. I have osteoarthritis in my knee and I'd noticed that when I walked barefoot (around the house), my knee didn't hurt. It seems that I shift and distribute my body weight differently when barefoot. However, I can't be barefoot at work! These are nothing short of miraculous for me to be able to walk pain free most days.My only complaint is that if you have wide ankles - not wide feet because these shoes accommodate that wonderfully - but when you wrap them, it can be a little tight across the top of your ankle. I'm going to try another size up and see if that gives me more room.Also, wear them short periods of time initially - like the first couple of days - if these are your first barefoot shoes. Your feet and shins need a bit of time to get used to them.

asked to purchase for a birthday gift. they like them, though I think they look hideous. She says they are light, and you cannot notice they are on. they have little to no sole. So if you have flat feet, or issues with you arches, probably not the best shoes to wear. They came rolled up in a little box, which I do not know if this is marketing or them trying to save material, but I don't care for how they are packaged. but again, they were not for me.

I got these shoes as an alternative to the regular Vibrams toe shoes for my business-casual job and they wear wonderfully. I have wide feet and the light material + the wrap-around design makes them some of the most comfortable shoes I've worn. I don't think I'll wear regular shoes again for a long time. I broke my leg a few years back and Vibrams shoes are the easiest on the pins in my bad leg.

I get so many comments on these shoes . I had major back surgery that left my thigh and left leg numb . I couldn’t stand the pressure of a normal shoe on my foot , I thought I would give these a whirl . The adjustable Velcro was a lifesaver and the flexibility and lightweight nature of the shoe helped greatly with my recovery .I’m a massage therapist so I trusted the vibram sole and they were quiet when I was walking around the table . It was like being barefoot . I loved them so much I bought another pain in green .

I finally was able to get my second pair of Furoshiki shoes. I bought my last pair four years ago in another color.The toebox is a little roomier than my others, which works well for these 60 year old feet.Since I’m used to going barefoot most the time, as I work out of the house, I absolutely love these. Next best thing to barefoot.The black is really black with a really fun colorful inside that was unexpected and delightful.As soon as I can find them in a sand color, I will be purchasing another pair.

The black looks more like an army green in person. Minimalist shoe, good for travel. Good tighter fit, hugs your foot like a sock. Probably not good for people with lymp or swelling problems
