I've been looking for a pair of gym shoes for a while now. My pair of Sensei shoes have like no tread left on them. I want on a whim and ordered a pair of these shoes,

Your new favorite lightweight minimalist shoe for everything you do -- run, work out, stroll, Crossfit... you name it... Check it out here >

So far, I am very impressed with the shoe. They have a lot of the what made the Sensei shoe great as a non-golf shoe. Very flexible, zero drop, wide in the toe of the shoe, and lightweight. 

Right out of the box I went to the gym, ran on the treadmill and had no issues. 

the only thing now is to wait and see how long they last.

Nice! I’ve always been a fan of Brooks when it came to shoes for hiking and running ( I do much less of both of late). But I like the wide toe area you mentioned in these which is what I always liked with Brooks.

Are there any zero drop shoes with a narrow toe box? My feet slide around in wide boxes.

Try Lems. Primals are great.

P.S. Other than that,  main diff between men's and women's shoes is toe box width..ahem.. cough..hint..cough..sniff. 😋

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
