Inov-8 Men's Bare-xf 210 V3 Sneaker

I wear a 7.5 in regular shoes and purchased 7.5. Excellent fit. I wore New Balance Minimus in the past but they changed the shoe completely so I switched to these. I'm using these for lifting and CrossFit. These can't not be thrown into the wash machine like the Minimus shoes due to the padding and material but they are extremely comfortable.I've been wearing barefoot shoes for 7+ years for wet mud trail running, CrossFit and lifting. These are great replaced for Crossfit and lifting. I WON'T use them for mud trails because they will get smelly if you wash them.They are similar to an indoor soccer shoe but definitely more comfortable.New to Barefoot?If you do not use flat or barefoot shoes, it will take a week or two to get use to them. I suggest wearing them "around the house" for a few weeks before using them to workout in. (I actually do this to break in new barefoot shoe.) You'll be using different muscles in your feet so if you start off doing intense exercises, you may get cramps or have really sore feet.

Order a half size up. I returned my usual size 9 because my big toe was touching the front of the ahoe. Size 9 1/2 fit like a glove. Great if you have triangle feet like me (wider toes, narrow heel). Great fit. I've been standing and walkinf around in them for 5 straight hours. They are xomfortable right out the box. I hope they add a tan or off-white color soon.

My wife has the BOA fast lifts so I ordered these in the same size. These are way too small. Like a 1/2-1 size smaller.

Use these for weight lifting / personal training. Great shoe if you can replace the insole.

Innov8 shoes have been my go-to athletic shoe brand for the last 15 years. These are light, flexible and have minimal support so they're great for high intensity training, weight lifting or short distance running. My only complaint with these is the insoles wouldn't stay in place. Once I took care of that issue they're a 5-star shoe for sure and I would buy them again.
