- The perfect shoe, except for the fact it scrapes back of heel Review by Sam

So I tried wearing minimal/barefoot shoes instead, based on the logic that my arches – and my feet in general – needed to be strengthened, not artificially supported. I tried Lems Primal 2, which seemed like a godsend. I developed an arch and my feet got stronger. Unfortunately, Lems don't do half sizes and none of the sizes were quite right. I also thought they looked a bit clownish. It's hard finding barefoot shoes that look decent!
But the Xero Ipari Hana shoe is perfect. I feel like I'm walking barefoot, but the shoe has much more of a casual look than the Lems Primal 2, which is what I was looking for.
The only problem is that, while the size fits right, the left shoe has been scraping the back of my heel, to the point of being red, raw, and bleeding. It's very painful to wear them. I've been wearing them for a week, so I really do hope that they break in or something, as I'd hate not to be able to wear the shoes anymore.

Rating - They handled everything... Review by Jason

And wow.
I walked for hours on pavement, hiked in a rain storm, climbed a mountain, danced a Scottish dance and they handled everything!...I even wore them on a date :D
They were comfortable and they still look brand new...as do my feet.
I cannot speak highly enough of these shoes. I see no reason to wear any other pair as I can do everything in these...they are more comfortable than being barefoot.
Thank you very much for making them.

Let me just say we have other 'barefoot' shoe brands but hubby has found that for some reason they began to smell bad almost immediately, so far wearing them with socks his Hana's haven't taken any kind of smell at all, so the acid test last weekend was him wearing them barefoot for a day walking in pretty hot weather & since - and STILL NO SMELL! I'm so chuffed I can't describe how happy I am.
We'll be sticking with Xero's from now on - thank you so much.

I work in a large office/warehouse environment, with concrete floors throughout. I’m on my feet all day, walking on average 6 miles per day. I have to wear something that is extremely comfortable and as barefoot friendly as I can. Well, thankfully the Ipari Hana has not disappointed. They are a cracking pair of shoes, light, comfortable and with incredible sole which is both flexible and hard wearing. The upper is canvas and breathable, which is very important to me, as I can’t stand hot sweaty feet.
I would dearly love to see a slip-on version, as I’m a lazy chap and find laces an unnecessary pain.
Simon of Xero UK provides an extremely fast and efficient customer service, which really does need to be noted and praised.
I would, with no hesitation recommend these as a good quality barefoot pair casual shoes. 10/10. Five Stars.
