Rutsu Original Barefoot Sneakers Low White

The measurements given were perfect for me at a size 8 as long as I wear the shoes barefoot or with thin socks. The shoes are tight with my thick wool socks so I'll be getting a size up for winter. The shoes are made well. They are very comfortable. I have bone on bone ankle arthritis and these shoes help me walk better and I have less pain than with other walking shoes that have a wedge or platform. I no longer need to wear my medical orthotics.

I thought the shoe would be a gray. They actually are tan or beige. Comfortable .

Awesome shoes they are so comfortable this is my second pair already want to buy a different color. I tell everyone about them!!! Thanks so much.

Use the size guide. My normal size is a 9 in mens - these were a 7. No big deal, just measure your foot before ordering.

I work in retail - so I walk a LOT, and on concrete floors. Personally, I think these are really comfortable for my environment. No pains or aches from wearing these non-stop (with the default insole) in that kind of environment. To each their own on that one.

I like the style, they go with everything I put on. I get a lot of compliments on them. I'm probably going to order a second pair just to change out.

They offer a "work" pair, but not available in my size. If they DO get high tops in my size, then I will absolutely buy a pair just because.

Really cool shoe. Pretty durable so far ~ probably 84 walking miles in them at this point.

This is my first pair so I added the barefoot transition insoles. Lightweight and super comfortable. I use them as daily as my go to shoe for running errands and walking the dog. The wide toe box and flat sole have supported strengthening my feet and improving my gait.

I've worn these shoes for over 100 hours at work in a warehouse where I am walking on and off of an electric pallet jack on concrete floors. I wear the transition soles that came with the shoes and they are comfortable enough to keep wearing for 10+ hours a shift. My longest shift while wearing these shoes was for over 14 hours - my feet were aching at the end of my shift, but a night of recovery had me feeling well. In comparison, tonight (going 3 weeks into wearing these shoes) I worked a 10 hour shift without any aching.

The construction of these shoes has impressed me. There is fraying in the stitching on one shoe, but it's holding up well aside from that. The material at the toe is sturdy and the soles still look new. I also suspect that the stitching frayed from rubbing on a wooden pallet - not that I specifically remember it being caused from this, but rubbing the sides of my shoes on wooden pallets happens often in my work.

I'm very pleased with my purchase and I'll likely buy another pair of Rutsu shoes.

Absolutely love my new high tops, reminds me of a very comfortable improved Converse Chuck Taylor. Mine came with the transition insoles and like those as they add a little bit of arch. The quilted insides actually keep my feet warm.

Great low all black sneaker. I had to go a half size up from my previous Rutsus and my husband ordered a pair and also feel they are more snug that his previous ones so not sure if something changed in material or padding but by going the half size up, they again fit perfectly.

I am a boot wearer most days and todays sneakers are in my opinion, cheaply made garbage. I was very surprised when got my Rutsu high top sneakers. With elastic laces, they are so easy to put on or take off without untying them. The quality is top notch. I will probably buy a low top pair for traveling.

Three pairs in, and I’m hooked! As a fitness instructor, I spend hours on my feet, and Rutsu delivers comfort, style, flexibility, and that barefoot feel I love. Highly recommend!

Comfortable and stylish. Waited a bit to give a review to see how they do overtime and my feet are happy. Thank you, Rutsu!

These are cute shoes. I think I’ll be able to wear them with skirts and dresses. They hug your ankles. Nice heavy canvas. Definitely won’t fall apart. I also have black low tops for work. The low tops took about two wears to break the heal in. The only thing is I can’t slip in and out easily without loosening the laces for about 2 holes. But there’s a lot of support so it’s a certain style. I recommend 🩷

I’ve worn my Rutsu Original Barefoot Sneakers High Black every single day for the two-plus weeks I’ve owned them, and these things feel amazing.

I ordered a size 11 and probably should have gone with a 12, but even with that mistake on my part, my toes aren’t hurting. The wider toe box gives them room instead of squeezing them together—something I really appreciate.

What surprised me most is how easily these slip on. They’re high tops, but getting them on takes hardly any effort. That’s a daily convenience I didn’t realize I’d love this much.

Anything that bugs me? Honestly, nothing so far. I can’t speak to long-term durability yet, but after more than two weeks of everyday wear, I’m giving them five stars without hesitation.

Real gear. Real opinions. ZERO BS.

P.S. “I purchased these with a creator discount. These are my honest opinions based on daily wear.”

These are my first pair of barefoot sneakers, and I am so happy that I decided to try them out. I have wide feet and they fit great! I converted them to slip-ons with stretch laces and they are now my go to everyday shoe. I'm definitely going to pick up some more colors.

So comfy and stylish too. Nice wide toe box.

Very comfortable and lightweight. 11.5 would have been perfect, and had to size up to 12. Canvas is my favorite material for shoes and the thin sole allows you to better feel the earth below you. My feet muscles feel stronger, better balance, I can jump higher, my teeth are whiter, and people really like me now.

To start, shipping was reasonable although it wasn't as UPS was saying. Now, when I got them (the tan and black ones), I thought they looked great! They're light, not bulky, but they're not cheap either. Definitely not like all the barefoot shoes copies out there. Being mid tops, they're a little hard to put on and take off, but just gotta get used to loosening the laces and remembering that these shoes might be more flexible, so just bend them a bit if necessary. I like the stitches, I hope that means they last longer before they separate at the seams. Lastly, the toe socks were probably not worth it lol. Wish I had gotten the elastic laces instead. The socks are too tight on one of my toes, and I'm not very big.

These are comfortable, lightweight and dry fast. I love both the cork insert and the wooly insert. It’s fall and I can wear them and my feet are warm.

Best customer service I have ever had, and I will officially be a customer for life

I purchased a pair of the gray low tops about a month ago, and had an unfortunate luck of the draw with weak stitching around the pull strap that caused it to tear. I left a two star review and figured oh well, I got "got." Less than 24 hrs later I received an email from Rutsu customer care apologizing for the situation, and offered to send me a replacement pair of shoes. They even sent a different color upon request! New pair arrived today and I threw them on: FANTASTIC quality and exceptional comfort.
Huge thank you to the team once again for making this right and getting me squared away, I'll be sending many more people your way.

Look good without being too flashy. Minimal, but still classy. Great feel on the heel and first toe.

I love everything about these shoes from the fit, the feel, the look, etc. I look forward to buying many more.
