Marugo Mannen Japanese Tabi Shoes Black/Navy/White with 12 Clips

Let me preface this by saying that I bought these jikatabi for work as an esthetician. I need shoes that are comfortable, very flat, and very versatile. These shoes are all three of those. I wear a US standard 8.5, not wide, but my calves are pretty bulky.TOES: Not too far apart, the separation is very natural and the toe box is the perfect size for me personally. My other 4 toes could be a 1/4 inch longer and still fit comfortably in these. The sole does not curve around the edge of the toes like other brands do, which looks much cleaner and more sleek.UPPER: Very versatile hook closure and can fit snug or loose. It took me a few tries to get the perfect fit on the fabric loops, and some practice to hook them quickly. A+ for size allowance.INSOLE: The insoles are flat, which is okay for me. Sole inserts will fit perfectly in these and not constrict my feet.OUTER SOLE: Very grippy, but VERY squeaky. For a quick fix I recommend using a bar of cheap soap, dry, and rubbing it along the entire bottom of the sole, including the outer edges (no, you will not lose traction or slip. I've been doing this for years, especially on Doc Martens soles). After that, these bad boys are literally ninja silent.FABRIC: Thick and sturdy, nice soft lining isn't itchy. I will be using a waterproofing/weatherproofing spray to prevent staining and protect them from the elements or any chemicals/products I work with.Overall, excellent shoe.

Got these for my husband and he loves them! They are actually really nice quality. True to size as well. Would recommend to anyone looking for this style of footwear.

Different type of boot for me, I like the boots comfy and light weight on my feet and legs. Wish I could get in brown, grey and beige colors.

I recently got a pair of Men's Tabi Ninja shoes and I gotta say, these shoes are the real deal. They're worth every penny! I mainly use them for the gym, and they have been amazing for my deadlifts and squats. I feel so much more grounded and stable during my lifts.What I love about these shoes is how comfortable they are. I can wear them all day without feeling any discomfort. The design is also really cool and unique, which is a nice bonus.If you're looking to upgrade your gym shoes, I highly recommend giving these a try. They are perfect for anyone who wants to take their lifting game to the next level. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Best design of all tabis this brad id best too this style jikatabi and brand is used in japan for laborers and gardener and pilgrimage for shikoku 88 temples even monks too if you visit japan look out for workers you see thease theyre not costume made they're the real deal also walk not with heel but flat foot method its great

Super functional and nice-looking

Foot part fit perfectly, way too small for my calves and ankles. C’est la vie.

Toe box fits comfortably the width is just right. Arch support I mean it is a flat foot so it's fine. Very comfortable for training. I thought the tabs were going to be a problem for me based off of other people's opinions of their experience with the tabs. However, after a couple of times of putting them on, it's becoming just as easy as tying a shoe for me. Love them would like to get tabs sneakers or a more stonger sole for real outdoor use.
