Reviewed by Chad from Texas on Thursday, June 13, 2013Solid purchase. Got these as an all around doing work shoe. I wear them when I play disc golf and at the gym. The leather seems to be good at repelling dirt as they're still fairly clean after a few disc golf romps. The grip is fantastic on the shoe. Can generate a lot more torque in the hole of a squat. I got 10.5, which is a half size smaller than most of my shoes, and it's a tight, but comfortable fit.

Reviewed by Roots from Iowa on Tuesday, June 11, 2013These shoes are amazing. They look and feel great, I have run in them and they are lightweight, and have the same great "barefoot" feel as other minimal running shoes, but with the durability of leather. I'm buying a second pair to wear around town because they feel so comfortable, and they look very stylish. Previous comments are correct, these run small so order a half size up.

Reviewed by Keith from Charleston, SC on Monday, June 03, 2013Brought a pair of these MT10s because a buddy of mine had them and loved them. I wear them everyday, all day. To work, at home and out in the evening. Nice wide toe box, flexible and light as feather. The leather is supple and durable thus far. Have been wearing them for about 3 weeks. Not sure how long them will last. I strictly use them for walking and no running. I had surgery on my left big toe in 2011 due to Hallux Rigidus. The toe is still stiff and I have not regained total flexibility. These shoes have aided in allowing my feet to relax; no longer projected forward and putting pressure on my joint. I like them so much I order a second pair after wearing them only a week. I tried on other NB styles and do not like the MT10s with the band across the forefoot. The band goes over that toe joint that doesn't allow for much movement. I hope NB continues to make these leather MT10s; a black pair might be nice.

Reviewed by Summertime swimmer from Boulder CO on Wednesday, May 22, 2013Got these for my husband ... he actually is keeping and wearing this pair, so it's a success. The last few pairs have gone back. His feet are pretty flat (low arches). The only complaint I've heard is that they are too soft to be able to do toe raises in the weight room. He'll use them mainly for weight training and walking, not a runner. These are also nice looking for casual wear.

Reviewed by A runner with a day job. from Springfield, MO on Tuesday, May 21, 2013This is my second pair of minimus shoes. I wouldn't recommend these for a true running shoe. I run in the regular cloth minimus shoes. But nothing beats the feeling of bare feet, or as close as work will allow, all day. This being my second pair I am used to walking around in minimus shoe, so I bought these to work in. I walk on a concrete floor all day and love them.

Reviewed by Greg on the Emerald Coast from Niceville FL on Wednesday, May 01, 2013You better be ready to run tall...stretch those calves and Achilles...then be free...like running naked, er, barefoot, but gives you just enough protection from the rough terrain.

Reviewed by TGeorgo from Honolulu on Tuesday, April 23, 2013These shoes are very comfortable. So far I have worn them to work, about town, to a pick up game of soccer and on a nice hike with my wife and they have performed well on all counts. I recommend them highly.

Reviewed by southern sweat from Raleigh, NC on Sunday, April 07, 2013I wanted a 0mm heel to toe shoe for casual wear, versus athletic wear. These could be worn for walking, hiking, etc, but they are acceptable for casual, especially since there are so few options for non athletic minimalist shoes. They fit well, the size runs correct. There is not as much toe room as in Merrels but they are comfortable and a good buy.
