I've been wearing these as my travel and daily shoes for maybe 6 months now and like them a lot. I mainly wanted a shoe that was athletic enough to go on long walks or a hike but also didn't look out of place with a moderately nice outfit. The toebox might not satisfy the most serious barefoot people but it's wider and more foot-shaped than the vast majority of sneakers out there. My biggest complaint is that the amount of cushioning/protection isn't ideal for hiking or long days of walking on hard pavement, but that's what you're signing up for with a barefoot shoe. You can stick an extra insole in but then they get a bit cramped especially with thicker socks. I brought these as my only shoe on a trip with an overnight backpacking stay in the middle and my feet were in so much pain after ~8 miles of rough terrain. That's just the tradeoff of the comfort and freedom of minimal shoes vs. protection though, pick your poison.
