Good quality

Good quality, look good. The very wide toe box loses a star for me as I have narrow feet. Had to go up a size to usual Freets on length. Half sizes would be welcome.

Better than others

I got these yesterday and ran 8.5 miles right away, today I ran 15 miles. These shoes have a very high quality feel to them, they do not slap, feel thin, nor too squishy. I have run in merrels, xeros, vivos, and lems and these are the best looking and feeling wide toe box minimalist shoe. I have converted about 6 people to barefoot shoes, so I will recommend them immediately.

Why these shoes are better?
1) the aesthetics, most barefoot shoes look sort of dorky, these looks sleek
2) the toe width, no toe pitching, no achilleas pain, pain free running meaning more miles. The other barefoot shoes are too narrow causing my achilleas (along with my wife's achilleas ) to be too painful to run. My wife has literally resorted to running barefoot. I wanted to try these shoes. First time running in a while without any aches or tweaks
3) The price, more than fair every name brand shoe is about $120 so that is what I expect to pay
4) The feeling, very responsive, very roomy, very quiet while running

If you want me to endorse these shoes reach out to me, I am very impressed

Excellent Shoes

Bought a pair of Vibe 2 size 9 in Aug 26 and have found them to be very comfortable. I have a pair of much cheaper barefoot shoes and these are very much better in comfort and quality.
These shoes are not cheap but are worth the money.

Great summer shoes, but the barefoot transition takes time

Je porte le Vibe 2 depuis trois mois.
Premièrement les chaussures taillent un peu petit, je fais du 43 mais j'ai du prendre une poiture 44 et ai gardé la première pair en 43 pour la salle de sport. La pointure 44 est très confortable, elle tient ses promesse en termes de toebox et de respirabilité. Elles furent donc très confortable cet été et j'en ai été très content. Cela étant, elles restent un peu grande s'il y avait eu une demi-pointure entre 43 et 44, elle aurait été parfaite.
Ensuite, c'est ma première pair de chaussure barefoot, et étant quelqu'un qui marchent beaucoup en ville, sur du béton et pavés, et je dois parfois courir pour attraper mon train. Bref, il est arriver où le coté barefoot sans amorti de ces chaussures fut douloureux, même avec la semelle intérieur. Je ne le reprocherai pas aux chaussure car cela fait partie du "contrat barefoot", mais je recommanderai donc aux néophytes du barefoot de ne pas avoir un usage trop intensif de ces chaussures, au moins au début.
Peut-être qu'y mettre la semelle intérieur "Ortholite" la plus protectrice de Freet est une bonne idée, mais je ne l'ai pas testée.

I've been wearing the Vibe 2 for three months now.

First of all, the shoes run a little small. I normally wear a size 43, but I had to go up to a 44, and I kept the original pair in size 43 for the gym. The size 44 is very comfortable and lives up to its promises in terms of toe box space and breathability. They were therefore very comfortable throughout the summer, and I've been very happy with them. That being said, they are still slightly too big. If there had been a half-size between 43 and 44, it would have been perfect.

Secondly, these are my first barefoot shoes. I walk a lot in the city, mostly on concrete and cobblestones, and I sometimes have to run to catch my train. Eventually, the lack of cushioning that comes with the barefoot design became painful, even with the standard insole. I wouldn't hold this against the shoes, as it's part of the "barefoot deal", but I would recommend that people who are new to barefoot shoes avoid using them too intensively, at least at first.

Perhaps using Freet's more protective "Ortholite" insole would be a good idea, but I haven't tried it myself.

Great Shoe! Very light and comfy

Great Shoe! Very light and comfy and looks better than most barefoot shoes.
Other than the company says on their website the actual size was too small to fit. So I got one number bigger than I usually wear and that's perfect.
