I loved seeing the 'artwork' on the back of the sofa. Of course, professionalism and image have their values, but the constant need for perfection has become quite unhealthy in way too many people's minds. Stay real everyone.
Hello Anya, thank you for the running sandal review. Very informative. Much appreciated. That is quite a collection you have! I have been consistently wearing the Luna Monos for years now. Interesting side note, it is uncomfortable and almost impossible to wear covered shoes as I've noticed over the past few years. As I'm sure you know, the feet become stronger, thicker and splayed as the toes began to reestablish and regain their proper neutral alignment. The art work on the back of your couch is fun too!
Thank you for your reviews. After a long time deliberating whether or not to try barefoot shoes, I've finally taken the plunge. You've helped me navigate through all of the overwhelming options. I think this is the start of something great :)
Nice video! Glad to see you share your experiences and joy for barefoot sandals. They make make my feet feel amazing. I enjoy Shamma sandals and Luna. Luna has amazing lifestyle options.
All these small minimal sandals but not a Bedrock among them??? :) They've become my favorites by far. "Cairn" & "Cairn Pro" (I or II) amazing feel for as rugged as they are, medium weight, bombproof, super easy on/off, and ... Classic" is ridiculously lightweight, amazing thin groundfeel, but really great Vibram outsole. So good.
I actually have a pair now! They are definitely good sandals. Too narrow for my wide forefoot, and the Cairn is much thicker than I prefer but a solid option.
Nice video. I had to stop wearing Chacos because I started having a skin reaction to whatever they make their footbeds out of, so I need a new pair of sandals for hiking. I almost bought a pair of Earth Runners, but I like the very pale, beige colored laces I’ve seen in pictures, but didn’t see it offered on their site. I think I’ll hold off and see if they bring it back. Really wanting to try the canvas soles.
It seems like they got really popular this year and have been having a harder time keeping things in stock! They told me they would be having a restock sometime this month.
Thank you for this review! I keep coming back to it. I am new to barefoot sandals and am trying to decide which one to buy. Do you know the weights of the Paisly 7 hole and the Deliberate Life Designs 7mm Pursuit sandals? (is that the model you have?)
Great review! It's great to have someone out here with so much information on barefoot or minimalist footwear, so thank you. I'm going to go with one of the custom pairs. Are the Deliberate Life sandals much lighter than the Paisleys? And do you have a preference between the two?
I really love my Earth Runners ( Circadian Lifestyle) however, I find the footbed really smells easily and I have never had problems with my feet smelling before. Have you found that at all? They recommend d washing them every week...I have to wash them and my feet after every time I wear them...it is such a hassle and has made me very disappointed in them. What has your experience been?
That is interesting! No I've never had an issue with smelling, but I do have to wash my Earth Runners with the canvas footbed. And by wash I really mean scrub. When they get dirty rinsing them does not do the trick. I have a shoe brush that I use for this whenever my shoes get extra dirty.
I have gotten these since last post. They take a little while to adjust but they are the closest to being barefoot (which I prefer). I am curious to see how they wear because they are so thin.
hey anyas love your content! i want the most minimal sandal but toughest for offroad and on road running with your knowledge what would you recommend ?
Anya thanks for all your videos they are so helpful! Are there any favorite brands or styles of sandals you think would look great for a dressy occasion, I'm looking for a pair I can wear at my wedding ceremony and reception.
Yes, there are some really lovely sandal options! This list here is specifically of fancy barefoot sandals for a wedding: anyasreviews.com/barefoot-minimalist-wedding-shoes-guide/#barefoot-wedding-sandals
What are the differences in the Luna roots and the Luna rooted Brujita? I’m looking at both on their website in the styles that do not come up on the able, but rather slip on. And cannot spot the differences
Right now I've been running and walking in some Xero shoe Z trails. I juss ordered a pair of cloud men's for a casual shoe. Which one of these shoes would look best for a 24 year old man? Thank you!
Shamma's have become extremely over priced. I used to to be tester for them before they hit the market. I moved to Bedrock Sandals and the lacing system is the best out there.
Please cover your thighs in your video.... Dont be a opening for the devil. A dad, a son, a husband ect will be effected, along with the women in their life.

If it had to be perfect I would never get anything done! Thanks for noticing and appreciating the realness.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Anya! I binged your content in the last month, it has been such a helpful resource.

@@anyasreviews The classic ones they make are awesome. Similar thickness to earth runner.
Great video! Although I wish you used an external mic like a lav mic for better sound.
Thank you, I really appreciate the feedback!

Do you still love your leather shammas? Which ones are the best: super browns, super goats or all browns?

I seem to have missed this comment, I apologize. The DLD sandals are quite a bit lighter than the Paisleys and I do prefer them because of that.
@@anyasreviews Thanks. I went with the DLD and used your coupon code :)

@@anyasreviews thanks so much Anya!
One tip boost your volume a little bit

I think you get some different outsole options between those two. Otherwise you should be able to select slip on or multi wrap in either.
Full clear. Thanks.
Right now I've been running and walking in some Xero shoe Z trails. I juss ordered a pair of cloud men's for a casual shoe. Which one of these shoes would look best for a 24 year old man? Thank you!
I think both are perfectly fine! Simple, unisex, you should be good with either.
I have the Z Trails. I like them except when they get wet. The footbed becomes insanely slippery!
I love the look of the Running Pads but it's been impossible to order a pair despite multiple attempts.
Oh interesting! Thank you for the heads up. I’ll see if I can figure what’s going on.
@@anyasreviews any update? I'm thinking of buying a pair 😊
@@veronicabigham9674 I got in contact with them and they said they were receiving emails and processing orders, so it should be good to go.
Do Luna sandles ground you like Earth Runners?
They do not. You can find all the grounding barefoot sandal options at BarefootShoeFinder.com if you use the filters.
Thank you!
Super helpful video from a super beautiful woman. Thanks
why not put them on and show us walking?
Shamma's have become extremely over priced. I used to to be tester for them before they hit the market. I moved to Bedrock Sandals and the lacing system is the best out there.
You have very beautiful looking feet. What size of shoe do you wear.thank you.
Please cover your thighs in your video....
