A shoe for all seasons
This shoe has completely changed my running game. My legs feel stronger and my feet more comfortable. As a result I am running 50% longer and my feet do not hurt like they used to in my old runners. Also they are great to wear when doing regular weight training. I can not wait to get these puppies on the trails come spring. Great job Adidas. Oh and they do run a little large, I am a size ten but nines fit perfectly.

Best shoe choice ever
I have been wearing these for 3 months now and would never go back to regular shoes for the gym, or running. My balance has improved and so has the work my legs get during running.

Barefoot Freedom
I saw that Adidas had come out with their own 'toe shoes' and figured I would give them a go. Comfort is outstanding and I'm a size 10 wearing a size 9. Probably could've gone the one size up but I'm not complaining. Definitely worth the price and they look ridiculous.

Great Shoes
I have seen the toe shoes around my city of Victoria and wanted to give them a try. Shoes that actually work with the foot the way the foot is supposed to work is a revolution in my mind in footware. They are a good fit for my feet, very light and comfortable. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to get a glove fit on my feet for the first time, but it has been easier since. I like how each toe has a good fit. I have found a reduction of fatigue in my feet on longer range walks. I am still building up to runs as it uses different muscles in the feet, however on a 15 minute run I found it works well and my toes grabbing and that I have greater acceleration and traction on inclines. My toes are better able to extend out and splay which gives a better base of support. I have found the tread to be excellent. It is like having a shoe soles attached to the base of your feet. You will need toe socks to use the shoes, if you choose to wear socks. I like the addition of toe socks and shoes and find that this does make the shoes more comfortable than they already are. These are among the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I have also had many conversations on the road and in the gym with other people interested in the shoe design.

Excellent shoe
I did not know what to expect with these shoes but having worn them in the gym for a bunch of different activities I can now say I love them. They are as close to being barefoot as you can get without actually being barefoot. They are comfortable, very light and having separate toes makes activities like push ups and planks way more natural. I've even run in them a bit...that takes some getting used to but not bad at all. I bought them primarily as a training shoe and for that they are excellent. Having something between the toes felt odd for only a few minutes. Now it feels natural. Getting them on is also a breeze. I thought it would be much harder based on some reviews of toed shows I have read. Overall I am very pleased and would recommend to anyone to give these shoes a try.

Great trainer!
I have only owned the adipures for two weeks now but I can really notice the difference in balance during my workouts at the gym. I also use them for running on track which is a bit different being so use to running in regular trainers. It works other parts of your legs that don't usually get worked during a run because of the different landing during the run. The only thing I am worried about would be how well the toes hold up without popping out after repeated use.

Brilliant shoe!
Once you slide your toes into place, it's pure workout bliss. I find these offer more stability for weight training/yoga (P90x) than did my other cross trainers. In part, this might be because you're more aware of your feet and how they interact with the ground. Previously, I just took this for granted, but becoming conscious of it allowed me to appreciate the lack of constriction in the toe box and the design's fantastic grip. Their feather-light construction seems like it will hold up, too. This all results in less padding than in other shoes, but, again, this is for the better as it gives a far more meaningful response and forces you to avoid abusing your feet. A bit pricey but definitely recommended. I found I take the same size in these that I do in my Adidas basketball shoe, but I definitely urge prospective buyers to try them on first. I also recommend toe socks, which I could only find on ebay (e.g., injinji micro performance series).

amazeing
I thought these shoes would be brakable in a b-ball game. i thought maybe the sudden switch of momentum would tare. they turned out to be pretty strong. i also love how they spred your toes to use your body to stableise and balance your body. they dont make a solution they offer your body to make one.

Just like being barefoot
Received mine a couple of days ago and the first time at the gym with them there were many double takes and a little snickering. But, when the resident muscle heads were raving about them suddenly all the guys wanted to know what they were.
They are very light, although it takes a couple of days to loosen the toes up but I expected that, and feel odd at first but after a few minutes that all changes. They are easily the best shoes I've tried in a long time.
And, get ready to feel muscles in your legs you didn't before - all in all 2 thumbs up. In terms of sizing, order half size smaller than your normal shoes - they'll fit snug and feel great. You won't regret it!

Better than Vibram
I do a good bit of roadwork and these suit outdoor running much better than the Vibram model I had been wearing. Comfortable and light weight with enough support to make almost all athletic activities possible. Very happy with the purchase price and all aspects of the fit and comfort!
