Received these shoes as a gift and all I can say is: The MINI-MiL is "GREAT"

Great shoes. I wear the Mini Mil boots for the Army and can't seem to go back to a regular heel. I love the boots but these shoes are even better. They actually have padding on the inside, have the same strong sole as the boots, does not have high tops (so you can actually trengthen your ankles), and they actually look like normal shoes! All the other minimalist shoes look like wearing empty banana peels.

I like the looks of the shoes, however they seem to run a half size smaller than your size, and that maybe because it's not a true barefoot style wide splay shoe. It looks like the regular shoe was somewhat stretched to give a small wide width. When I put the shoes on it's tight and rubs the sides of my feet feeling like it squashes my pinky toes. I have been trying to stretch them to fit comfortably. Also when I walk the sides flair out because they are a tight fit. They don't resemble the barefoot minimalist concept, just that they are zero drop. They where true they would fit the barefoot minimalist foot toe splay.
