Love my Hikes especially since they feel so good on my toes that suddenly became a problem with Hammer toes. These shoes don't rub. I have 4 pairs & will take them to Europe because they are so
Lightweight & packable. I love Hikes.
Have 2 pair and find my feet never get tired. I can wear all day and they make walking for long or short distances a real pleasure.
I bought these shoes just hoping for something a little more comfortable. I am almost completely free from plantar fasciitis pain.
Have ordered more.
I first bought these shoes to help with my balance issues and it sure did help. I absolutely love these shoes as I now wear them all the time whenever I leave my house. I believe I now have 9 pairs since I just purchased 3 more pair that I'm waiting to come.
Started wearing as slippers to help balance... as 69 yr old...
Felt like I was walking barefoot.
Not shuffling around. Now wear all over
The most comfortable shoes I have
These Shoes are much smaller than I expected. I agreed to exchange for the next size up, but they still don't fit. The toe box is very shallow and I am unable to wear them. Customer service was unable to help me after the replacement was sent. I guess I am stuck with them. Four pair of shoes. In looking them over, It is no wonder they don't want them back. There is no way they could sell them for the MSRP. If I saw them in a store I would estimate Hike would be asking $40 for them. I am willing to pay for return shipping in the US if they will agree to return my payments. They might not even have a presence in the US.
The shoes are extremely comfortable.
However, I cannot 5 stars as i am afraid to wear them without socks.
I am allergic to latex and rubber products and i cannot were either against my body.
I could not determine the material the insides of the shoes are made of so my barefoot shoes are being worn with socks.
Sorry, but I have not had the opportunity to wear them yet…too busy…and looking for very thin socks for them. I'm sure they will be fine…will respond at a later time…Thank you…
Although I have several pair that I like to wear, they all fit differently! Some are good in sizing and some are so thin that I can not wear them for a long time.
After seeing an advertisement for these shoes I thought I'd try them because I was experiencing knee/hip pain. I usually wear cushy sneakers that are supposed to be good for arches, etc. I've been wearing my Hike shoes now for approximately a little over 4 months and surprisingly, no noticeable knee or hip pain. I'm not sure if it's because of the shoes, but I think it is - so I'm wearing them whenever I can to see if any of the previous pain returns. If not, I'll be getting another pair.
High arch but this particular style I did not realize that it was a solid fit around the arch area, and the foot bed seems to be stiffer than the regular HIKE sbarefoot shoes
I have 2 pair of Hike shoes and like wearing these shoes because they are very comfortable for my long second toe. They are also a great distance walking shoe.
These shoes are perfect for me, but I can't wear socks with them, they're too tight with socks. Maybe one size larger would work better. BUT without socks they are very good, my feet don't get sore at all. No toe-squashing. I can even go for a walk, no blisters, no pain, just very nice. No break-in period at all. I thought I needed more arch support, but something about these shoes is just right.
I have no cartilage in either of my large toes?! The Dr. said sometimes it just goes away? Needless to say I was getting some joint pain and having flexibility and balance issues. The HIKE system of a shoe, is just right for my needs. Less pain, more feeling grounded then with other slip on shoes. Good product and I will keep following and trying the products.
I love the shoes and how they help my feet and back. Problem is the toe area material is so thin my big toe poked through and made a hole. I had to get my sewing kit out and reinforce the toe area so I could continue wearing. I have a purple pair that is still intact but my green pair developed the hole.
I decided to give my "barefoot" shoes a try while working in my garage (no socks this time). Generally speaking, they were comfortable and supportive, though after a while, the back of one shoe started to rub my heel the wrong way. I attribute that to our feet not being exactly the same size and my habit of wearing mainly backless shoes. I should have ordered a larger size, I suppose. Lesson learned. I'll give them another shot wearing two pairs of socks to try to stretch the "offending" shoe a bit.
Move before I start wearing hike shoes I used to have plantar fasciitis really bad. I had shots in my foot. I really didn't help. I'm also flat footed your shoes make my feet feel more comfortable when I'm walking and my plate of fasciitis don't hurt as bad when I'm walking in your shoes rather than walking in regular shoes
The shoes have no support, need to return them. Website will not give me an address to return. Ordered them on 2/25/26, have sent several emails!

I am honestly surprised how much I enjoy wearing them! My feet feel exercised and more connected to the ground.
I am definitely recommending them to others.
Shoe is well made and toe room comfortable. It is not the shoe for me. My joint problems need the cushioning provided in a sneaker like Ortho Feet or Brooks. Can't find order number so copy/paste this ….
