The wide toe and zero drop shoe I have been looking for! Cute and comfortable. I love wearing them while lifting weights to get the most out of the movements.

I rarely leave reviews, but I had to for these shoes—I’m writing this as I order a second pair in a different color! I’ve been wearing barefoot shoes for a couple of years, but most of them were starting to hurt my feet and hips. These are a total game-changer. They’re incredibly comfortable, and I can wear them all day without any foot pain. I love the wide toe box and the subtle bit of arch support—which is perfect for my high arches. I’m so happy I found these!

Like a lot of people new to barefoot culture nearly all barefoot sneakers just "look weird" like duck shoes or something, you've heard that before haha. Well these are my first barefoot shoes ever purely because they looked the LEAST like barefoot shoes, and IRL it is amazing how you can really only tell from top down the wider profile they have, and at that it's really not that weird! Also purchased hoping they would help out with strengthening my knee while running which is going good so far. Material holds up surprisingly well, doesn't seem to be cheaply made and offer more support than expected despite being flat soled I assume.
So far I'm glad Splay and this model was the first introduction to barefoot shoes, would highly recommend to any beginners or people curious in trying it out - it is a WILD sensation to walk using your entire foot so flat and not the normal feeling of more narrow sneakers you've been used to your whole life. Will honestly forget you even have them on they feel so natural. Only thing I'd love to see from Splay is a thicker sole and sidewall in the same identical shape to the Runner. Asics are great because they do have a lot of cushioning for running on trails or uneven terrain, helps with knee impact. Thicken up the soles and you'd have the perfect natural running shoe I'm sure.
As for the fit I'd say its almost truly to size, except I like to lace one eyelet short so maybe my foot slightly moves forward sometimes and hits the front of the toe…

I like the comfort. Definitely not as barebones as other barefoot style shoes. The toe box has great room. Only issue is my heel doesn’t really feel secure, almost like they might just slide right out.
The construction feels and looks good. Definitely better than some more expensive options.
I would love a more breathable option, these do get a little warm in the summer.
