NO. I cured all my foot pain. plantar fasciitis and tendinitis wearing them for 3 years. my feet only hurt now with soft squishy shoes. my back doesn't even hurt as much at work anymore. and I stand all day.
it does take time to adjust so I did it slow at the start but once I adjusted fully I cant go back

I would say the biggest shift for most people would be *how* you run, more than anything. I don't notice any strain on my joints with either type, I just like barefoot since they're flexible and give me freedom to move how I want to move. I've only experienced joint "load" when I ran improperly by landing on my heels. That'll injure you no matger what shoe you wear lol

I literally cured all my foot pain by going from tapered shoes to barefoot all in 1 day. I will never go back.

Wrong! I have had insertional Achilles tendinitis x 10 years, both feet! I was wearing high heel drop shoes per my podiatrist with constant pain. I switched to barefoot shoes and have NEVER looked back. I work long hours on concrete and no problems. I can tell the muscles in my feet, ankles, shins and calves are doing the work now. I changed overnight! May not work for some folks but sure did for me.

🤔Are we talking about the ones with toe capsules? Or is there another style? I don’t want to decide to give them a go and buy the wrong ones 🙄

The best footwear is no footwear. The foot needs no support! Go barefoot or wear barefoot shoes.

tired of spending hundreds of dollars on shoes, nothing helps. my condition is plantar fas & heel spurs but I have flat foot & most support shoes have high arches which hurt. I need help

I really love my barefoot shoes. If I walk several km in sneakers / trainers I suffer from lower back pain and knee pain. Barefoot shoes prevent this from occurring. They also improve my posture which is increasingly important as I age. I'm an 80 yo male.

I always let my clients know to wean into use and that they may feel more pain at first as they are correcting maladaptive patterns and incorporating muscles that haven’t been used in years.

I go barefoot as much as possible! I hope these will remove shoes for me for forever. Hate shoes and socks!
