Review: Toes box wide enough to accommodate splay correctors - After reading many reviews, took the plunge and bought my first pair of barefoot style shoes (these). I am determined to start correcting my misaligned toes, failed bunion surgery and painful arches that have ruled my life for too long . I am going from quality, leather, supportive New Balance...which is the only shoes I can wear most of a day without unbearable pain....to these shoes. I bought on desertcart without ever having tried on or seen in person so I expected a fail. Most shoes look wide enough but once on they are generally too tight or I can feel everything I step on. These shoes came wrapped in sealed plastic but just in an desertcart box, no shoe box. See the made in China label. They feel light weight and pretty cheap but they are cleanly made....no sloppy glue, wierd seams or mismatched colors. I had to open the laces as wide as they would go but once on, they were easy to lace up normally. My 8.5 4E wide ladies foot fit perfectly in this 8.5 shoe with plenty of toe box room and height for my thick feet. My toes have about 3/4" extra space from the nose. The fit is surprisingly good and the shoes are comfortable. Then I put socks on which took up a little more room than I would like. I then put my toe spreaders on plus socks and the fit is still comfy but I would get a half size bigger if wearing toe separators with these shoes. So far I am very happy I did not waste the $45 ish these cost, however, I've only owned them for 15 minutes so I can't yet say how they feel on my arches after wearing out in normal life. I hear it takes time to retrain feet to align and build muscle to support arches properly. In the first week or 3, my feet didn't hurt and were not sore from suddenly wearing shoes with zero support, but they were tired. I think this is evidence that my feet and calf muscles are retraining. I am very happy with this purchase. Update.... several months later and my feet still don't hurt. In fact, after a whole day my feet are tired but not painful as they were when wearing support shoes. My PF doesn't flare up with these shoes. I am so surprised that I am not in more pain. My toes have not straightened at all though and I am still not fully used to the thinness of the soles. These shoes still look good and I wear them daily. I wash the white pair of shoes in the sink with Dawn and warm water and they are still pretty white. Another bonus....I don't tie or untie my shoes, I just force them on because I am usually in a hurry and the back of the shoe hasn't broken down at all. In fact, both pairs still look very nice. Hope this helps someone. ***Update...did a 10 day trip to London and Dublin and wow did these shoes hold up! I took a risk and only brought these 1 year old shoes and no others. We did 56 miles in 8 days on foot and I could feel the cobblestones which were really uncomfortable. But best of all, no stabbing pain from PF! Yes swollen, aching, painful feet but no stabbing pain anymore! Life changing. ***Update.... after 3 years and 3 pairs ofthese shoes, I now get corns on the bottoms of my feet which never happened before I bought this brand. I believe it is because the soles are so thin and I can feel the pebbles when walking. This is supposed to be a running shoe but its painful to step on anythingl, even with a cushion insert. It just needs to have thicker soles. The toe box width is perfect and wide enough for my 4E feet. I thought I finally found my shoe but sadly, I have to keep looking for a thicker soled shoe. No barefoot styles for me. Review: Great bargain, builtbfir every day use - These are a bargain, I have been wearing the barefoot technology gym shoes for a while and the zero drop dress/casual type shoes for a couole of years. These helped with lower back issues. I wanted more of a tennis shoe for work getting 10-12k steps on concrete floors in a school. These give me the wide toe box, zero drop and they don’t have the arch support, I do have high arches but that was causing balancing issues and low back pain. These shoes work for school, walking the dog, and great for heavy squats and leg press. They look good too and that is a plus. ## Features - A wide toe box lets your toes spread, splay, relax, and function naturally - Zero Drop design allows for proper posture, and it's built low to the ground for balance and agility - Soft mesh upper and lining provides a breathable and more comfortable interior fit - EVA midsole provides lightweight cushioning and adaptive energy return for serious stability and shock absorption - Durable rubber outsole provides the perfect combination of grip, traction, and durability on all types of terrain ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BRXCK2MP | | Arch Type | Medium Arch | | Best Sellers Rank | #8,962 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #55 in Men's Road Running Shoes | | Brand | WHITIN | | Closure Type | Lace-Up | | Color | Black | | Cushioning Level | moderate | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 3,356 Reviews | | Embellishment Feature | no embellishment feature | | Fabric type | Mesh | | Fit to Size Sentiment | true | | Formality Level | Casual | | Heel Type | Flat | | Inner material | Mesh | | Insole Cushioning | Ethylene Vinyl Acetate | | Insole Material | Ethylene Vinyl Acetate | | Item Highlight | Wide Fit Design for Enhanced Foot Comfort, Cushioned EVA Midsole for Lightweight Comfort, Ideal for Walking, Hiking & Travel | | Lace Closure | Eyelets | | Manufacturer | WHITIN | | Manufacturer Part Number | SH-DS81-ABK-45 | | Material Fabric | fabric-and-synthetic | | Model Name | Zero Drop | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Occasion Lifestyle | athletic | | Occasion Type | Birthday | | Outer Material | Mesh | | Outer material | Mesh | | Pattern | Solid | | Pronation Correction | Neutral | | Seasons | All | | Shoe Height Map | Low Top | | Shoe Type | Athletic Shoe | | Sole Material | Rubber | | Sole material | Rubber | | Special Features | Lightweight | | Specific Uses For Product | Sports | | Sport Type | Running | | Strap Type | Lace-Up | | Style Name | Modern | | Subject Character | Barbie | | Surface Recommendation | Road, Treadmill | | Theme | Sport | | Toe Style | Round Toe | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | lining-description | mesh | ## Images ![WHITIN Men's Wide Toe Box Zero Drop Road Running Shoes S81 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91jJU+CxOfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Toes box wide enough to accommodate splay correctors *by S***R on July 9, 2023* After reading many reviews, took the plunge and bought my first pair of barefoot style shoes (these).

They look good too and that is a plus. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for wide feet *by M***T on July 16, 2026* These are great shoes. I normally have a very difficult time finding shoes that fit my feet. I have very wide feet and I get blisters from shoes that are too constricting. These shoes fit me perfectly. The sizing is accurate and the wide toe box is plenty wide for my feet. They have comfortable insoles and I have put over 20 miles on these shoes before writing this. All that being said, this is my first pair of Zero Drop shoes and I didn't know what to expect. At first they were great but after a few days of walking I started to get shin splints from the different foot position that these shoes provide. It is no fault of the shoe. They are great and they perform exactly as advertised/designed. I unfortunately do not think a Zero Drop shoe is right for my needs. I have a few different pairs of shoes and these are the only ones that give me this discomfort. Overall, these are great fitting shoes for people with wide feet, but the Zero Drop design may not be for everyone. They are definitely worth giving them a try because the discomfort I had in my shins may not be the same for everyone. ## Frequently Bought Together - WHITIN Men's Zero Drop Running Shoes + Wide Toe Box - WHITIN Men's Wide Barefoot Shoes | Canvas Minimalist Sneakers | Zero Drop Sole - WHITIN Men's Wide Toe Box + Zero Drop Sole Road Running Shoes | Rubber Outsole --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/517678060-whitin-mens-wide-toe-box-zero-drop-road-running-shoes](https://www.desertcart.is/products/517678060-whitin-mens-wide-toe-box-zero-drop-road-running-shoes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-10-02*
