"Reminds me how nice pain-free walks can feel"
I’ve been wearing these for my daily walks and even after a full day at work, my feet still feel supported. I used to come home with that familiar ache and immediately want to sit down, so it feels great not dealing with that anymore

"Nice vegan shoe options"
I ended up ordering from groundies.com because they had a few vegan styles I actually liked, and there was just something about it that felt like a good find. The shoes are comfy, look nice, and fit true to size for me. Shipping was alright, not crazy fast but totally fine. I do wish the vegan filter was a little easier to use, and more color options would be nice. Overall though, I had a good experience and I’d probably order again.

"Honestly, the odor control really helps"
I’m actually relieved by how well this helps with foot odor. After long days, my feet don’t smell nearly as bad, which makes me feel way less self-conscious...

"Breathes Better Than I expected"
My feet stay cool in these, which I wasn’t totally expecting. They do Fit a bit snug though, so keep that in mind.

"Super soft right out of the box"
I ordered mine from groundies.com and the material felt really soft as soon as I put them on. I was a little worried there might be stiff spots or rubbing, but nope, they’ve been comfy so far. I’ve already been wearing them around the house alot

"Took a little breaking in, but they’re comfy now"
I ordered these from groundies.com, the first few days had me wondering if I’d made a mistake. They felt a bit tight around my toes and stiff, so I only wore them for short walks at first.

After about a week, they started loosening up and feeling way better. The sole is nice and flexible now, and they’ve become comfortable enough for everyday wear.

I’m giving 4 stars because the break-in period was longer than I expected. I also wasn’t too eager to deal with customer service if they didn’t work out, since I never fully trust that process, but luckily the shoes ended up being a good buy overall.

"So easy to use every morning"
As someone who’s always rushing out the door, I really appreciate how quickly these straps fasten. No fuss, no extra effort, just quick and easy every morning.

"Really good grip when streets was wet"
I bought my Groundies mostly for walking around town, and the grip was better than I thought it will be. On wet pavement and those smooth shop floors, they feel steady, not all slippery like some other barefoot shoes I had tried before.

I also take them on some light trails and they held up fine, even on loose dirt. The sole is still thin enough that I can feel the ground, but I don’t feel like I’m going to slide around. I’m really happy with them.

"Sizing was just weird for me!!"
I really wanted to like these, but the fit was all over the place for me!! I ordered my usual size, and somehow they felt too tight in the length but loose in other spots, which was super weird!! The return process was kind of annoying too!! Maybe they work great for other people, but I definitely don’t trust the size guide now!!

"Pretty warm for chilly days, I think"
I picked up a pair from Groundies for the colder months, and so far I’m mostly happy with them. They’re surprisingly light, so at first I wasn’t totally sure they’d be warm enough, but they’ve been fine for regular winter walks. I mean, maybe not if it’s properly freezing out, but for chilly days they do the job.
The sizing worked out for me, and they got more comfortable after wearing them a few times. I’m giving 4 stars because I kind of wish the lining was a little thicker, though maybe I’m just expecting too much from a lighter shoe. Overall, still a good buy.

"Great-looking shoes, but instructions could be clearer"
I bought these mostly because I liked the design, they look even better in person. The style is simple and clean, and they’re not overly bulky like some other barefoot shoes I’ve tried. My only small gripe is that I was expecting clearer instructions or guidance, especially if you’re new to this type of shoe. Other than that, I’m really happy with them.

"Sole thickness is pretty much spot on"
I was a little skeptical ordering these because I never really trust customer service to be much help if something goes wrong, but the shoes turned out better than I expected. The soles are thin enough that I can still feel the ground, but they’re not so thin that daily walks get uncomfortable. So far, they’ve been easy to wear and feel just right.

"Nice shoes, but the leather is a little high-maintenance"
I do like my Groundies overall — they’re comfortable and feel good to wear. But the leather needed more attention than I expected. After just a few wears it started looking a bit dry and picked up marks easily. I ended up using some balm, which helped, but I really wish the care instructions had been clearer from the start. When I reached out about it, the response made me feel a bit talked down to, like I should’ve just known how to handle the leather already. They’re not bad shoes at all, just a little fussier than I’d want for everyday wear.

"Good value for the money"
I ended up buying a pair of Groundies after looking at a few other barefoot shoe brands. The price felt fair because they seemed to offer decent quality without being way too expensive.
So far, I’m happy with them. The sole is flexible, the leather looks nice, and because they fit better than I expected, I’ve been wearing them almost every day.

For me, they feel worth the money. If they hold up well over time, I’ll probably buy another pair.

"I’m happy with these shoes overall. I..."
I’m happy with these shoes overall. I like that the insoles are easy to take out, since I use my own for a little more support, and they fit in just fine without making the shoes feel too tight. My sister actually mentioned they looked comfortable too, which was nice. I took off one star because the original insoles feel a bit thin to me, but the fit is good and I’m still glad I got them.

"I picked these up for my daily walks..."
I picked these up for my daily walks, and they’ve been solid so far. They feel great on pavement and park paths, and they’re comfy enough for everyday use. The only thing is, on wet rocky ground they feel a little thin underfoot, so I wouldn’t use them for anything too rough. But for casual walks and easy trails, they do the job nicely.

"Comfy enough for long days at the office"
I mean, I wear my Groundies to work most days, and I’m on my feet a lot between standing and walking around. They’re really light and comfortable, and my feet don’t feel nearly as worn out by the end of the day. They also still look clean and put-together enough for the office, which I appreciate. The only downside is the sole can feel a little thin on hard floors sometimes

"Actually impressed with it"
I’ve been wearing this pretty much every day, it’s holding up way better than I expected. The quality feels good, and I haven’t noticed any major wear or issues so far. I feel like that’s a good sign, right?

"Didn’t expect them to feel this light"
I ordered from Groundies because I wanted barefoot shoes that didn’t feel chunky or heavy, and these were lighter than I expected. There’s just something about it that makes them easy to wear without thinking about your shoes all day.

I’ve only had them for a few weeks, but so far they’ve been really comfortable, even after wearing them for hours. Shipping was totally fine too, so overall I’m happy with them.

"Found what I needed fast"
I was browsing the site it was super easy to get around. The filters helped me narrow things down quickly, and I found my size without having to dig through a bunch of pages. Checkout was smooth too, with no weird steps or errors popping up. Overall, it was a really easy shopping experience and I’m happy with it...
