Admittedly they are a bit of a cross between a 5 finger vibrams and a water boot but they fit very well and let my foot land flat on the ground with good foot and toe splay. Bought them in October. 21 years old - now May 22 years old and I wore them all winter and all spring. I'm not a runner but I run at least 5 miles a day in them. . And for the price! An even better deal. I plan on buying another pair if they ever stop making these barefoot shoes.
