What barefoot shoes do you normally wear? I've tried a few, but nothing fits quite right.
I'm a serious Merrell enthusiast. I love their trail glove line, especially anything with the Trail Glove 3 soles. I'm wearing my Power Gloves right now, which are weird rare high tops. I also have a pair of Trail Glove 5s. They're not quite as comfortable as the 3 sole style, but they are so high performance it's ridiculous. No matter how or where my foot lands, I have both grip and mobility. My dream shoes are Wildlings, with the split soles. But there aren't a bunch of those on ebay like there are Merrells, so I can't just keep and beat up multiple pairs.
What sort of shoe do you usually find comfortable? Do you have wide or narrow feet? Is your arch deep or shallow?
I have fairly narrow feet. I tend to strike with the heel of my foot when I walk. I'll take a look at the ones you have listed.
Yeah, I have narrow feet as well. There are barefoot brands with wider fits, but I like the snug fit I can get with Merrells. And heel striking has to go when you switch to barefoot. Mid to forefoot stride is the way! Heel striking puts stress on your ankles and knees. Changing your stride will strengthen your feet and protect your joints.
Thanks for all the info! I'll have to work on my stride then.
