    LOVE them

    I had plantar fasciitis and barefoot living cured it in a few weeks. I have bought/wear 2 Vivo barefoots, Splays (don't like Splays very much), and Earthrunner sandals (<--love those), and tried Altra's but returned them. These Flux Runners are AMAZING! Size 12.5. THE BEST shoe I have found period. Working all day on concrete at Costco requires more comfort, and these are the ONLY shoes that give me the zero drop, with excellent wide toe box (that's bigger than Altra's), AND the comfort I need. Also, I think the look is simple and timeless, the grip on the outsole is outstanding, and as or more comfortable than any shoe I've ever worn. The one negative is this, and one must consider what I do with them... the fabric gets dirty in the front of the shoe. It needs better protection in the front, but this is really only because I am very tough on them as I work in the meat dept and they get beat up every shift. Everyone else wears boots, ha! I can't, I hate the heel lift and the squished toes. After almost one month I have had to wash them several times and they wash very well, it's easy, look brand new after drying just used dish soap and my fingers to scrub. I do see a couple tiny frays at the front and I trimmed one off, so that's a bummer but I know it's only because I am doing hard work cleaning big rubber mats, using a huge heavy commercial hot hose, and moving 75lb boxes all day. They get dropped and rubbed on, especially when filling the cases my feet go under the…

    So great! Just a few things I would change

    Love the feel of the sole and the roomy toe box. My feet don’t hurt after wearing which is great. At first I felt like there wasn’t enough arch support, but after wearing and no sore feet I think it’s fine. I do have the wrinkles that other reviews mentioned, and since it’s such a light color they have gotten dirty really easily. Hopefully they clean off easily. This wasn’t my first choice in color, but they keep selling out of my size in the colors I want which is frustrating. I do really like the grounding technology though, I do feel a difference and a calming effect from it. So overall I would recommend.

    Adapt runner

    I was skeptical. I have lupus and develop sores on my feet all my sneakers are great but I wanted a shoe with more stretch and less arch. I got my adapt runners. I LOVE THEM I have worn them everyday for a week or so now and I have no issues with my feet. I wear them without socks too and omg the comfort. Thank you for making a great pair of shoes. I look forward to buying more. Waiting on the light blue camo in an 8 o

    Amazing!!!! Thank you!!!!

    Oh my gosh, these shoes are incredible! I've been having a lot of hip problems from running, I truly enjoy running and it's been so frustrating to wake up in so much pain. I read so many reviews about these shoes, and they've totally lived up to the hype! I'm so excited that I can run again without pain and to gain the love of running again. I even signed up for my first half marathon! I can't thank your company enough.

Wearing bulky shoes is like keeping your feet in casts. Sure, they’re temporarily safe, and may even be able to recover from overuse, but this is merely a band-aid, not a long term solution. Your body works and feels best when it’s being used and appropriately challenged.

  • Stronger Feet: Traditional shoes restrict movement and weaken foot muscles over time. Barefoot shoes promote natural movement, strengthening muscles in the feet, ankles, and lower legs for better stability and strength.
  • Happier Toes: A wide toe-box gives your toes freedom to wiggle and flex. This builds up their strength and flexibility, making it easier to move around without hurting your ankles or knees.
  • Balanced Stride: A zero-drop design, meaning your heel and forefoot are on the same level, gives you a natural, graceful stride that takes the strain off your joints and perks up your posture.

"Barefoot shoes" is a general term for shoes that optimize the natural biomechanics of the human foot. To achieve that, our shoes feature excellent flexibility, zero-drop (no heel raise), and a generous toebox to accomodate the foot's natural shape.

Flux shoes have a generous toe-box, thanks to the toe-off shape which creates ample room for the toes throughout the gait cycle.

Yes, these shoes are flat from heel to toe, allowing your feet to land naturally.

The amount of time it takes to transition to barefoot shoes varies for each individual, as everyone's feet are different and may adapt to the new shoes at different rates. However, the following general guidelines can help:

  • Gradual transition: Gradually increasing the amount of time you spend in barefoot shoes can help reduce discomfort and allow your feet to adjust to the new sensation of walking without shoes.
  • Start small: Begin by wearing barefoot shoes for a few hours at a time and gradually increase the duration as your feet get used to them.
  • Listen to your body: Pay attention to any discomfort or pain you experience while wearing barefoot shoes. If you experience discomfort, take a break and switch back to your regular shoes for a few days.
  • Give it time: It can take several weeks or even months for your feet to fully adjust to barefoot shoes, so be patient and persistent.

Keep in mind that everyone's feet are different and the transition time may vary. It's important to listen to your body and adjust accordingly to ensure a comfortable transition to barefoot shoes.
