4/5

Overall

This shoe is extremely comfortable and wider toe box has helped eliminate some foot issues I was experiencing. I did not have an issue with the zero drop but I transitioned into the shoes very slowly (about 6-8 weeks to shift completely). Their only flaw is they aren’t as durable as some other shoes I’ve owned, but the lower price balances that out.
