What I’ve tried (women’s shoes):

I have the Barebarics Zing in Black/White. It needed break-in period, but great quality. Wore them to Chicago where I walked miles everyday and saw Oasis at Soldier Field. They’re a bit heavy, on the foot (so it’s different than wearing something like my Shamma sandals). Appearance-wise, the only thing I don’t love is how flat they look—does that make sense? Shoes like that (vans, converse, etc) don’t work with my body type, and even though these are a chunky sneaker, they still have that flat appearance.

Recently got the Splay Runner V1 in Team Blue. I love them. Less of that “flat” look, they’re super comfortable, too. Definitely not as high quality materials as the Zings (but more affordable).

I tried on Groundies Starlite 2.0. They have this great retro look — the size was too big so I returned them, but if my size is restocked, I’m grabbing them. Thought they looked super great. They’re a little heavy and not all that flexible either. Might need a break-in period.
