Very happy with my new Chelsea boots. I wore them hiking yesterday and was comfortable the whole way.
I want a gazillion pairs of these. Okay, so I'm not in love with the colour (I'm not a pink girl) but it was all they had left in stock of my size. But darn they are super comfy. Can't wait for the other colors to come back in, I'll be ordering a bunch more for sure. It's a night and day difference wearing these socks vs normal socks when wearing my Lems primal zens. I'm actually kinda amazing how much a sock can change the comfort and fit of your foot in a shoe - even a barefoot one. Never realised how restrictive socks can be. Glad I tried these!
Bought these to help transitioning to barefoot shoes.
It turns out my feet took to my Lems primal zen's like a duck to water, however I do slip these in when I know I'm consistently on my feet for 5+ hours (like no breaks, consistent standing) and they do help provide a little cushioning and I'm less fatigued/achey on those particular days. I pull them back out again when I'm in my shoes normally without all the standing. Great little addition to have around. I would imagine they'd also be an asset for those transitioning from trad shoes to barefoot shoes.
By Far The Comfiest Shoes I've Ever Worn.
I'm so grateful I gave these a shot. I've always purchased high quality shoes but I've been noticing after an extended period of time working from home (ie wandering around the house in bare feet for 2 years) that when I jumped back into my normal shoes my feet and toes would ache terribly.
After talking with some friends and doing some research I decided to give these a shot and I'm every so grateful I did. For me I didn't have a transition period or any pain whatsoever (I've been barefoot on concrete floors for ages). They're super light but with enough sole to protect my feet and not worry about what I walk over when I'm out and about. I went half a size up for this model after BPrimal's recommendation and glad I did. They fit great. Totally recommend.
great service and a fantastic pair of walking/hiking shoes
They feel like socks! Ridiculously comfortable. Nothing rubbing, lots of toe room, nice quality. I would normally be a 6.5 but they start at 7 and it doesn’t seem to be a problem. Really like the retro styling, feels good for both casual wear and weightlifting.
Wide toe box while looking like a normal boot, light, comfortable, more cushioned sole than a lot of other ‘barefoot’. Only had them a few days but they already feel easy to break in. The vibram sole should be good in winter if there’s a bit of ice too. They ought to be a half size too big but with thicker socks they are a great fit. Love them.
Think these might have just saved my life.
Aside for some bad stitching on the toe (exchange requested), these feel super comfy and I'm only disappointed I can't wear them right away.
I've been looking for a pair of boots like these that were comfortable enough to walk in and wear all day for decades, seriously! These fit the bill and then some!
