Sadie:
First time buying Minimus shoes and have loved these so far. I don't do crossfit but I'm in the gym a lot and was looking for a good gym shoe that wasn't built just for lifting only. These things are great for box jumps, squats, deadlifts etc. I've never felt my feet moving, rolling, or felt unsupported. They have a nice toe grip in the front for planks and other similar movements to keep your foot in place. They're great for walking around too. Have not tried them running.
This was my first time trying a minimalist style shoe and I love it but be prepared for how weird it feels initially. There's a strap in the middle of the shoe which provides some arch support and keeps my heel snug in the back (so nice since I have narrow heels). Only downside to this shoe which others mentioned is the narrow toe box. I expected more room for toe spread, which is why I give this 4/5 stars. In the end, will definitely buy these again once I trash this pair.
Ohhh and I like mostly black shoes with some accent color. These were perfect.

Craziewon: Dont buy...not sure how anyone would workout let alone walk in this show. Curve of shoe is a non-natural shape not a foot shape bottom of shoe cuts into inside bottom of foot...maybe for SUPER skinny feet would work...maybe. I liked look of shoe but fit is a KILLER.. Its is partly mesh be aware...I wasn't I would see it only working in warm months or hot climate.

lindsay: I use these runners for work and walking. I love how light they are and wear them all day long working in a hospital, I’m always on my feet. I don’t have any issues with my feet so I love that they are light and flexible. I run quite a lot and wouldn’t wear them for that purpose, I prefer a shoe with more support and cushioning for running. They are amazing for walking and everyday wear, I’ve had other pairs of minimus in the past and they are my go to everyday walking runners!

Amarillo: These shoes are so comfortable. There was no breaking in period for me; it fit like a glove the moment I put them on. The colors on this shoe is unique in that I have never seen this made like this. They are really pretty and very well made. I did put in a arch support insert but I do that with all of my shoes. The main thing that I found that was really different was the weight of the shoe. Very lightweight and feels like you are not wearing shoes at all. I love these and hope that New Balance will make them in other colors as I will buy again.

Anna MD: Der Schuh sieht optisch gut aus. Als erstes fiel aber der starke Chemiegeruch negativ auf, der auch nach 2 Tagen stehen lassen noch da war. Beim Anziehen war er äußerst knapp. Außerdem sind innen Stofffteile eingenäht (für den Halt am Fuß gedacht), die das Anziehen erschweren und auch am Fuß nicht angenehm sind. Daher zurück.

Samantha: Era troppo piccola per me e non c'era un numero più grande. Istantaneo il rimborso. Arrivata in una scatola non originale.

SDubbSDubb: These fit perfect for anyone who prefers the old minimalist style new balance used to carry. I normally wear a 5.5 for these types of shoes and this fit the same. They felt tight initially but stretched to the right size after wearing one time! These are super light and highly recommend!

aawiegelaawiegel: These shoes are just so pretty. The size runs a bit small but they are too cute and super light. I love the color. They are great for weightlifting for they are wide and holds the ground pretty well. For hiking, if you like the feel of bare feet, these are the choice. I will order a larger size for myself but I totally recommend these. Excellent. Thanks!!!

Anne-Marie Gauthier: These are perfect for weight training in the gym. I really enjoy the sensations that the shoes give me. They are not restricting in the front and that is something that you want to look at when shopping for weight training shoes. I have long and narrow feet but the regular size is perfect for me and gives me lots of space to spread my toes. 5/5 would recommend!
