These are far and above my favorite barefoot shoes so far, and I’ve tried many many brands so far. I get tons of compliments on how cute they are, and people are genuinely shocked to learn they’re barefoot shoes, which starts a whole other conversation. Barefoot shoes have saved my feet, and there’s no going back, but my issue was always… they’re not cute. These definitely solve that issue while remaining practical and easy to care for. I’ll be buying more styles and colors for sure.
Love love love! Light, comfortable, cute! I need in every color
Crazy comfortable. Hope they hold up because these are sweet, especially considering the price in this upside down world
Purchased these in early winter and they are the most comfortable shoe. I’m on my feet most of the day and they never ache. Keeps my feet warm on cold days and the barefoot style doesn’t look like clown shoes.
I get compliments on them all the time and they can be dressed up or dressed down.
Very happy with these. Hoping they restock this style and the black lined boots as well because I had planned to buy as gifts for others.
The Rutsu Earth (I purchased the Mushroom 🍄 color in Men's 12) is a beautiful shoe. The fusion leather is soft to the touch and looks just like suede. It's flexible and moves easily, but still has a toughness to it that indicates this is a quality material that will be durable.
These really feel like they could be worn as a high top sneaker or a light-duty boot. The soles have good traction. I will attach a picture since there isn't one on the product listing.
All the barefoot qualities are there. Light, flexible, wide toe box, zero-drop, no toe spring, etc....
My feet are wide through the forefoot/arch and I have no problem wearing these. Plus, the look is something that can be worn casually, but dressed up or down easily. The metal Rutsu tree logo on the heel is a nice touch, too.
My last thought is that the included cork insoles are great! I love having a natural material if I wear shoes without socks. Cork is non-porous and anti-microbial, so it's ideal for reducing odor build-up in addition to being soft and comfortable.
These are my absolute favorite shoes right now, I forget I have them on! I’m barefoot all summer and will push to the limits with my bare feet until my toes turn white. These shoes just feel like warm bare feet, even on the frosty ground of a Maine November!
Extremely comfortable shoes. Seem well constructed. Wide toe box and strong pull-on loop at the back. I decided to replace the insole with one that had more arch support, and the laces with elastic no-tie laces. But I do that with all my shoes. The look reminds me of Indian moccasins.
I have short, wide feet and very thick ankles. I took a chance on these boots after seeing a FB ad and so glad I did. I got into running for a while and ended up with a bad supination habit from wearing Brooks. These encourage a neutral stance.
My feet are about 10.5”x3.8” and I wear diabetic socks just for the width. I ordered an 11 to be sure I could wear winter socks with them, but I could have been comfortable in a 10. Will buy those lavender ones when spring gets here!
so comfy and keeping my feet nice and warm for winter, love them
Very comfortable and stylish
Comfortable and a nice casual winter style.
These boots are so comfy. I can stand in the for hours and it almost feels like I'm barefoot. They're also warm, but not TOO warm. My feet tend to get hot and sweaty. Not with these boots. Will def be buying another pair.
This is my third pair of Rutsu shoes and I love them. I would love if you came up with a version of these that are as high as the extra high sneakers. I'm very happy that I found this brand.
I've bought 3 pairs! Absolutely the best shoes!
Well I picked these out for a Christmas present for my husband to give to me lol. I tried them on, and they are very comfortable!! I love how they look, and they are so light weight! Will update how they hold up after Christmas when I get a chance to wear them. I can't wait to wear them!!
These shoes have been wonderful. My feet are truly in heaven.
Style and comfortable
Very comfortable shoe. Great color. Great style.
Love the earthy color.
My usual size is 10 to 10.5 but Rutsu doesn't come in half sizes.
My previous Rutsu purchase was a size 10. Wearing thin socks was best for comfort.
I think these run slightly small in my opinion. But I do have bunions and must loosen up the laces for added width.
I decided to try 11 because I wanted to wear thicker socks for fall and winter.
Super happy that I did. I'm surprised they didn't look huge either.
Hope this helps if your on the fence on picking the right fit.
very comfortable
Probably the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn! Amazing.
Very comfortable and wide toe box
I waited impatiently for these to come back in stock. I absolutely love them. Please make more styles out of the fusion leather!
These hightops are super comfortable and of great quality. My usual size is 7 1/2 but it was sold out. So I went with a size 8 but ordered the fuzzy insoles with them for extra cushion. With the insoles the shoes fit great. I have plenty of wiggle room in the toe box. Without the insoles, they would feel too big and I would have to wear thick socks to make it work. So bottom line: they fit true to size, no need to size up.
This is my second pair of Rutsu shoes. After the break in period, my feet have never felt better. Best shoes I’ve ever had, and plan on buying more in the future.
Great
Super comfy just put elastic laces and you are good love them so much I bought more .
I love the look of this casual boot and the fit is great! I am transitioning to all barefoot footwear, and I absolutely love these as part of my collection. They look great and are super comfortable.
