ASITVO Wide Men’s Barefoot Zero Drop Sole Minimalist Width Toe Box Walking Shoes Sneakers TPU Toe No-Sew Upper

So far so good
So far I’m liking this brand of zero drop shoes. One of the first things I noticed upon opening and trying on, was that the toe box was not as wide in appearance as other brands of zero drop shoes. I have complete freedom of movement of my toes without any discomfort or tightness. It is a perfect fit and I have chosen to use them specifically for working out at this time.I just completed my first cardio workout with the shoes and found that it was very functional, comfortable, lightweight, and supportive for my feet. So far there is no bleed through of the dye into the gum sole like others have mentioned, but I have yet to fully break in the shoes. If such dye transfer occurs, it is not a big deal as these shoes are affordable to replace when needed. I would purchase these again when needed.

Nice style, comfortable, grippy, initially sent wrong size. Replacements had a purple discoloration.
Starting with the bad news: I ordered a size 9 (42) and they sent me a size 8.5 (41.5). The shoe box was marked size 9 so this is a screwup somewhere in the vendor’s supply chain. Fortunately they aren’t a returned/used item…everything looked new and was packaged nicely. They kinda fit my size 9 wide and high-arch feet, so I haven’t decided to return them or not. Minus 1 star for that error.The good news:I bought these as a more stable shoe for the gym (lifting, rowing machine, etc) and I’m happy with that. The sole is absolutely minimalist, probably 1/4″ thick and flexy. So things like leg press feels really stable. They’re comfortable for wear-around-the-house shoes, but I don’t see myself trail-running in them. You’d have to already be a ‘barefoot’ oriented runner to run in these. The molded-in plastic bits provide slightly more support around the arch, and I’m really happy with the heel cup (nice and stiff). The sole provides good traction, and there’s enough height around the edges to keep your feet dry if you’re walking through puddles or mowing a wet lawn. I like the style, as opposed to always wearing running shoes around all day.Pricing is a little higher than I expected for a Chinese shoe I might otherwise find on Aliexpress.Bonus: They included spare insoles for higher arches. They are trim-to-fit so I haven’t tried them yet.3-months later:I returned the 8.5 to size 9, and these fit nicely (true to size). I was exceited I’d be able to bump up to 5-stars, but the new set of shoes have a cosmetic problem. It seems that where the plastic parts of the uppers cement into the rubber sole, they create a discoloration that’s a light purple color. The first pair I received didn’t have this problem. So I can only assume this was a manufacturing process difference that could be batch-related. Some kind of chemical/adhesive reaction.

a full rubber outsole “wide width” zero drop shoe for the rest of us
I’ve been looking for a wide zero-drop “sneaker” with a full rubber outsole for ages. I’ve been a Lems customer for years. The Lems IBR outsoles are fantastic for being lightweight, but not so good for long term durability. I gambled on these shoes after seeing several video log reviews. They are a third the price of comparable Lems shoes, so it was a gamble.The quality was absolutely amazing out of the box. They included a set of extra laces for both shoes, a set of Asitvo arch support insoles (orthopedic) in addition to the shoes themselves.They fit perfectly in my normal size, and the cushioning was just amazing. Aside from loosening the laces on both shoes to get a proper fit for each foot, that was all that was needed before they were ready to go. Very solid for walking, and gym usage. Everything about the shoes suggests high quality in the manufacturing process. I did not find a single defect in the shoes.For the money, I don’t see a better value for a zero drop shoe. I would not call this shoe “barefoot”, or “minimalist” because of the weight involved in the shoe, but it is zero drop. The simplest way to describe it is a zero-drop sneaker on par with standard footwear, which is exactly what I was looking for!
