Unless a shoe specifically says non-slip… they aren’t. **Q: Are the sizing chart and instructions accurate? I measured my sons feet and it indicates he would need a size 14 but he usually wears a size 13.** A: They ran small for me. I wear an 11.5EE in dress shoes and a 12W in trainers/sneakers. I got 12W and they are just a hairs width short... so I'd second their recommendation for a 14 over 13. **Q: I ordered a size 13 (wide 13 on dropdown) and they showed up with a 47 size label in the shoe, which translates to a 12.5 us size -- not 13 us. why?** A: 12.5 is a 46 in eu size. 13 is 47. I don't what chart you found but this is a pretty standard conversion for most brands. **Q: Can you machine wash these?** A: Yes, however remove insoles and do not use dryer air fryer is best. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for a gentle introduction into barefoot shoes. *by on Reviewed in the United States August 5, 2026* These were the first shoes I ever had that actually fit my too wide feet. Easily the most comfortable shoes I ever wore and they immediately addressed some pinch blisters I was struggling with. I've had them for almost two years now as daily drivers, and they held up very well. The tread is wearing away, but no holes formed and the threads/stitching have only showed some fraying.I've switched to more minimal sole Softstar shoes, and comparatively the WHITIN shoes soles are notably thicker, so they seem to be on the thicker end of barefoot shoes. But, I'd argue this makes them very good starter shoes in getting used to the feeling of barefoot shoes. You can also remove the insole for a thinenr sole, but for whatever reason this never felt right to me.Affordable and comfortable, these are a safe test in seeing if these kinds of shoes are for you. I believe they made my feet more prepared for the Softstars. My WHTINs still have life left in them so I'm happily saving them for the time when I need a more robust sole. They're great for yard work and the like. Just don't do anything with water or take these out into the rain, these shoes suck up water like a sponge.Also worth noting, the shoes squeak a lot on certain smooth floors. This squeaking eventually goes away as the soles are worn in. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable, stylish and ergonomic for your feet and toes *by on Reviewed in the United States July 2, 2026* I was looking for zero drop or barefoot shoes with a wide toe box to restore foot and toe mobility. These WHITIN shoes balance cushion and barefoot feel of the ground beneath you.What I like:1) Comfortable and light feels great to walk on.2) The reinforced lace holes provide stable and snug feel when laced up, but you can wiggle the toes have plenty of room.3) Fabric is strong that I wear them in the gym.4) The colors are deep and cool. In addition to white, I have gray and black which are my favorite casual shoes.5) They are reasonably priced for the quality.6) The non-slip gum soles prevent slipping that you may find with other lighter shoes that use foam soles.7) These pack small so they don't take much room in a travel bag.8) The fabric do not easily stain and stays fresh looking. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value *by on Reviewed in the United States October 8, 2025* Cheap, simple and comfortable.This item is in value category, it works well, looks good and is very cheap at the same time.Keep in mind this is shoe is tough on the feet, it has minimal cushion so unless you are ready to handle this type of shoes it may make your feet sore very quickly.Grip is very good, toe box is large - they are comfortable.One negative is that material facing the ground makes squeaking noise on most hard surfaces, no issues with pavement, asphalt, but indoors - it will be an issue.If you will be using these indoors most of the time - I advise you find another options, these are great for outdoors.It is a 4 start because of the noise they make on some surfaces - otherwise great value. ## Frequently Bought Together - WHITIN Men's Wide Minimalist Barefoot Sneakers | Zero Drop Sole | Optimal Relaxation - WHITIN Men's Wide Canvas Barefoot Sneakers | Zero Drop Sole | Minimalist Footwear - WHITIN Men's Barefoot Trail-Running Shoes | Wide Toe-Box | Zero-Drop Sole | Optimal Traction --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/404731391-whitin-mens-wide-barefoot-sneakers-for-optimal-relaxation-w81-foot](https://www.desertcart.us/products/404731391-whitin-mens-wide-barefoot-sneakers-for-optimal-relaxation-w81-foot) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
