Comfort and stability
I was sceptical at first, So I tried the Amazon " Try before you buy " option.Iv had them on all day every for 3 days.Even though its a bit chilly, Iv gone everywhere in them, did 2 long walks, drove the car easily in them, shopping in the supermarket.....did get a few strange looks and young lady asked about them, as she said they look fantastic and wants to get some.My point is, I'm amazed how good and comfortable they are !I'm seriously impressed. Even just the feel of the base on your feet you know these are "diffrent to a anything else" you have ever worn.I always wear flip-flops or slip ons, or just bare feet. These barefoot sandals are the next best thing, thin enough to feel but just enough to protect.And gives good grip too, they need a bit of adjustment on the straps. After that. Walk for miles almost barefoot in complete comfort.I'm already looking at getting the Aqua versions of these as well. And a pair for my partner. Can't wait to wear them everywhere every day in the summer.

So comfy
These are fantastic, grip well, even in wet, can adjust the fit, even lent them to a friend whose feet were 2 sizes bigger when her shoes started to rub and she loved them too. These are now my go to sandal.

Barefoot simulation and Straps.
Comfortable, simulates bare feet adequately. Straps can be a fit fiddly to get right fit but fine once adjusted to your foot requirements.

Great everyday minimalist sandal
Comfortable huarache style, minimalist sandal.Needs some playing with to get laces right for you (and will need regular adjustments as you go) but great once you find the sweet spot. Feels like there's nothing there but protects your foot from anything sharp or too rough.I've worn these almost exclusively since buying them for everyday and running use.

Great shoes
I genuinely love these sandals. The sizing as suggested by Amazon's clever algorithm was bob on and and, to be honest, other than when I'm in bed or wearing my climbing shoes, they haven't been off my feet.I've been looking for some barefoot sandals for a while now as I'm leaning more into the barefoot footwear. These were exactly what I was after. 5 stars from me.

overpriced
One star for minimalism and being travel friendly.The laces snapped after around 10 uses. It happened while wearing them, so I was lucky not to fall down stairs or anything like that.Xero sent new laces and inks to a youtube video on how to replace them. I haven't managed to do it despite many efforts and perhaps because I don't have the tools required, at least a multitool, as described in the video. This is from a comment on youtube (not mine), which I think is spot on: "its nowhere as easy as the video makes it look. For reference in replacing the toe stap on a pair of auquas. You will needLighter, Multi tool ( leatherman), a box cutter is a good choice for opening it up, Elbow grease, String thumbs, spit"All in all, I'm not happy, mostly because of the price I paid for these. They look cool, they are barefoot and adjustable but that's about it.

Quite comfortable
More comfortable than I expected, especially between the toes. Can get quite a lot of sand underfoot on the beach though due to low profile sole. Lightweight and thin making it great for travel.

Comfort
Really comfortable, however manufacturers 5000mile guarantee seems optimistic as sole is already wearing down from April till now, will see.
