I love the wide toe box... I went to the podiatrist, and had my callouses taken cre off and the less wer and tear on the foot is noticeable!
White, black pink and grey.
I picked these particular barefoot shoes because of their style and look. I love the pattern details of the fabric and that the sole doesn't have different "toe" colors on it, just a solid color on bottom. They are truly comfortable, soft, and so light, and I could wear them all day. Reasonable price was also a big plus. They look great with my work clothes and I have gotten several compliments on them. Very happy with this purchase!
I own five pairs of these shoes. I started with one pair of blue. Loved the comfort so much I ordered 2 pairs of white. Then two more pairs of the tan. You can dress them up with them and they also go with casual attire
I purchased 2 pairs of Hike Footwear and have recommended them to my friends. I have MS and an uneven gait these shoes have been a blessing for me. I feel so much more balance than with any other shoes I have purchased in recent years. They are extremely comfortable and I never feel the need to kick them off when I walk in the door. Thank you Hike!
I had foot surgery and was dealing with Post Op swelling. Enter "HIKE" advertisement: When I couldn't get ANY shoe to help me get around. Now I own 3 pairs! I'm still wearing them! Most comfortable shoes! Thank You, HIKE footwear! I have referred a friend and now she has 3 pairs too!
At 86, I figured I needed to stop wearing clogs for fall avoidance, and so I found Hike. And boy are they comfy around the house: room for all my toes, slip on style. Then I took them out for a one-mile walk, and still more comfort! Just the ticket for my ninth decade.
I try to get my 10 K steps in each day and hike shoes have helped so much after experiencing pain in my feet from big clompy tennis shoes.
I have 3 different colors and all feel different. Orange is house shoe I usually wear without socks. Super comfy and broken in. Blue which was my first I wear without socks thin ankle socks, amazing fit and my feet feel like I'm not even in shoes. Khaki which I'm still breaking in and very cute and comfy. Well worth the money. I always hesitate to even wear any of my other shoes!
I love my HF Stride shoes! I have 4 pairs and switch off wearing them everyday.
They are extremely comfortable and I am much more stable on my feet.
Shoes are very comfortable. I wear them for training at the gym. Have not tried walking long distances. On May 18th the back heel of the right foot became unglued! The flap got caught and I tripped. No fall. My husband glued it back. I have picture before glueing.
I have the boots, winter shoes and regular shoes! I love them all! They all feel like I'm wearing no shoes at all and as such, I've learned to walk lighter on my feet causing less impact to my ankle, knee and hip joints. The wide toe box allows my feet to naturally keep my balance as well! I'll never go back to "regular" shoes again!
I have five pair of hikes and love 3 of them. Two pair do not have a tongue as such, I find them very uncomfortable across the top of my instep.
I love all my Hike shoes... for the feeling of the ground, to the wide toe-box and comfortable slip on and off. I do think that the in-soles could use an upgrade... they seem to move around and wear quite fast. But it has not stopped me as I have a fur lined winter pair as well as 2 summer barefoot pairs
I'm in love with my slip in shoes. They are perfect for my feet. Wow at the toe. Just narrow enough for my heel. I will continue to buy these shoes.
I call these my "old Lady" shoes. I bought them to see about improving my balance, and I really think they help. The shoe laces are a little long but I double knot them and tuck the ends. I had some questions after receiving them but you were very helpful and timely in your responses.
I would recommend this company and your shoes.
Waited far longer than expected for delivery with very little feedback about when to expect.
I ordered 2 pairs of size 39 and one of them is size 36 and useless to me or anyone I know
I love the shoe being light weight and the extra wide toe box. The things I am missing is a better arch support insole and flat sole bottoms that don't grip so much. I wish o could combine this shoe with my orthofeet shoes and create the perfect shoe for my 2 ailments.
I ordered a size 8 1/2 -9 and they were small. You offered to replace them but the next size offered is 10-10 1/2. They are to big. What happened to size 91/2 - 10? I think I would like the shoe because I have neuropathy in my legs and feet and I think my balance would be better. Hopefully 9 1/2-10 will be offered someday.
I have had several back surgeries and hip replacement. When I saw your ad explaining why being closer to the ground might help me walking. I am on Social Security and the shoes are very expensive for me. I bought two sizes not sure which one would fit the best. I hope I could return the one that didn't. Unfortunately, neither shoe fit properly nor aided in my walking. I could not return the shoes and was only offered a 30% refund. I'm totally just satisfied with the product and service.
I wore my HIKEs to walk in Athens, Greece and had bad bunion issues resulting in a staph infection and 3 days in the hospital hooked up to an antibiotic drip. I wish I could wear them. We don't work well together.

Answer: I had no trouble getting ahold of Hike's CS - but getting a straight answer was another issue all together. I went back and forth with CS in 14 emails before I finally gave up. So I guess their strategy worked. Check out the BBB website for Hike. BBB won't accredit them, and they have 106 complaints regarding returns that are unanswered. BBB rates them an F, which tells you all you might need to know.
Answer: Any Chinese website will have the same quality footwear at a fraction of the price.
