I have now worn them for 3 months. They are my go to shoe. Above HOKA, New Balance, etc. My feet do not get as tired, they are getting stronger, and I love the way they look. I wish they had more designs or colors. I hope they don't raise their prices also. Yes you will feel rocks if you walk on them however they will not hurt and you can continue to walk on rocks. You really should give them a try. I find I am wearing them around the house also. They PREVENT slipping or stumbling as they adhear to the surface. I love that over any squishy bouncy feeling like I may fall. I found the soft comfort of the high ebd sport shoes did more damage then good.After reading many negative and positive reviews along with comparing to a completely different Zero Drop Shoe I decided on trying this one. Like others said, it's so cheap I'm not loosing anything by trying it. I think if this had cost like $150 - $200 for the shoes I wouldn't have been so skeptical. I was completely taken back after putting them on and walking around the room. Thinking this won't last long, let me go on a long walk and see when the pain kicks in. I walked my Dog about 1 1/2 hours. No Pain & feet felt great afterwards. I wore them out shopping the next day and kept them on around the house they were so comfortable. The next week I experimented doing differeent walks, standing in KItchen cooking, just daily routine type of stuff. I just couldn't believe it. The cost is minimal. The look you either hate it or you love it. I love the wide toe look and reminds me a little of Clown Shoes.I have several foot issues in which my feet hurt after a few hours on them. I even tried a pair of brand name "Orthofeet" which were soooo comfy and squishy which made me feel like I was loosing my balance swaying back and forth. I also have one leg 1 inch shorter after a Hip Operation. I purchased many brands trying to get something comfortable while at the same time Stable. New Balance, Sketchers, Saucomy, OnCloud, Ryka and Reebok. They all felt comfy but not stable on my feet.The HobiBare did it all. Very minimal inserts but really really good ones. You feel oh so comfortable when walking in them while at same time feel like your hugging the road or grounded. No, you don't feel anything when walking on rocks except the rocks maybe wobbly. You can feel your walking on rocks though it doesn't hurt or uncomfortable. The Bottoms of the Shoe have a superior grip material walking on just about any material. There were a few times it felt my foot was stuck on the floor a bit and then released. I read someone went slipping and slidding in a commercial kitchen. I can only imgaine that to be true if Oil were on the floor. That would cause slipping. Even my shorter leg doesn't bother me as much in these shoes as my back doesn't hurt as bad when walking either. I have a truly horrible back and have had 3 operation and many epidurals so when I say my back does not hurt when I am walking, I truly mean it. Now I don't know if that will last but for now I will take it.I am getting another pair in another color. If they give out or glue doesn't hold up long they are so inexpensive you just get another. I certainly recommend this shoes.
