This shoe doesn't really look barefoot. The sole is a little flexible but not as barefoot should be. The outer leather is hard and shiny(not like in the photo). And the back is very high on the ankle so much that it prevents the correct movement of the foot. It even bothers while walking. We returned them!

I like
They're made of leather and probably durable.

I don't like
They do not fully meet the barefoot standard.
