All the Kigos are about as minimal as a shoe can get Nike Stefan Janoski Store – a thin outsole and recycle plastic bottle uppers (canvas-like). Lightweight and flexible, they move with your feet and work naturally. Because they are so light, flexible, collapsible and fit into the shoe bag provided, I bring them with me for any trips I take! My only pet peeve about the Leon is that the tongue moves around quite a bit as I don’t tighten the laces as much.
It’s a little different for my female wear tester. She has wide feet but not 2E+ yet and we couldn’t size them down a size because it would be too short. Unfortunately, the Kigo Pai and Kigo Bali are both too wide for her feet to wear it for a long time without slipping too much (medial to lateral and vice-versa). If you have wide feet (2E+), this is your shoe though! Other than the ultra-wide toe box, the Kigo Bali reminded her of the VIVOBAREFOOT Jing Jing that she tested last year for about the same price.
The color choices are refreshing and can be coordinated with whatever outfits you are wearing. I noticed that in my travels in Europe, people have wider feet and wear shoes that are minimal compared to Nike Flyknit Free Uk. And the Kigo footwear is most likely targeted towards a hip and younger European audience.
If you have been wearing huaraches or sandals or minimal shoes for walking or running, your feet should have grown in size and width. The new collection of casual Kigo footwear is available just in time for your wardrobe! And priced just right for your wallet. So free your toes and keep your feet happy with the new Kigos!
Barefoot running has been one of the hottest topics of discussion among runners ever since Chris McDougall's book Born to Run brought the subject to full light.
