I want to express my gratitude that you make high quality shoes with vegan materials. Many vegan shoes are such of a poor quality. And to me it is an extra bonus that none of your shoes I had to wear in. They're super comfortable right away. They are durable as well. Some of ahinsa shoes will be used for a third year. Yes, they have some signs of age, but they are proper shoes I can wear for a really long time. Thank you for what you're doing - spreading comfort and kindness :)

Thank you so much for your beautiful and thoughtful words. It means a lot to us that you appreciate not only the comfort and durability of our shoes, but also the fact that they are made with high-quality vegan materials.
We know that vegan shoes are sometimes associated with compromises in quality, so we are especially happy to hear that your Ahinsa shoes have proven to be proper, long-lasting shoes you can rely on for years.
It is also wonderful to know that they were comfortable right away, without the need to “wear them in.” That is exactly the kind of experience we hope to bring — shoes that are kind to your feet, to animals, and to the world around us.
Thank you for your support and for being part of the Ahinsa journey. :)

Exceptional Shoes and Customer Service
I have been wearing Ahinsa shoes exclusively for over a year, and my feet have never felt better. After experiencing zero-drop footwear, I cannot imagine going back to conventional shoes. I own 6 pairs!!
The quality and attention to detail are evident in every pair, from the thoughtful design to the comfort and craftsmanship. Just as importantly, Ahinsa’s customer service has been excellent. When I recently had an issue, they listened carefully and worked with me to find a fair solution that respected me as a loyal customer.
I truly appreciate a company that not only creates exceptional shoes but also stands behind its products and values its customers. I am very happy to continue supporting Ahinsa.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful and heartfelt review. It truly means a lot to us that Ahinsa shoes have become your everyday choice and that your feet feel better than ever after switching to zero-drop footwear.
We are especially grateful for your trust and loyalty — owning 6 pairs is an incredible compliment to our work. We put a great deal of care into the design, comfort, materials, and craftsmanship of every pair, so it makes us very happy to know that you can feel that difference. We also sincerely appreciate your kind words about our customer service. We always try to listen carefully and find fair solutions, because our customers and their experience with our shoes truly matter to us.
Thank you for continuing to support Ahinsa. We are very happy to have you with us! :)

Comfortable shoes, responsive customer service — two suggestions
The shoes are genuinely comfortable and I'm happy with the quality. Customer service deserves a special mention — my country wasn't listed for shipping, and when I reached out, they promptly added it. That kind of responsiveness is rare.
Two suggestions for improvement:
Shorter laces — the current ones are longer than needed.
Show import duties at checkout — I was charged nearly €70 in customs duty on delivery. Displaying an estimate (or offering duties-paid shipping) at checkout would avoid the surprise and confusion.
Reply from ahinsashoes.com
Thank you very much for your thoughtful and constructive review. We are delighted to hear that you are happy with the comfort and quality of your shoes, and especially pleased that our customer service team was able to arrange shipping to your country so quickly.
We also truly appreciate your two suggestions. We understand that overly long laces can be inconvenient, and we will gladly pass this feedback on to our product team. Regarding customs duties, these are set by the destination country and unfortunately cannot always be calculated precisely in advance. However, we completely understand how unpleasant an unexpected charge can be, and we will consider how we can make this information clearer during the checkout process.
Thank you again for helping us improve. :)

Great for Bunions and Crossover Toes: A Perfect Fit!
Ahinsa shoes are especially great for someone like me with bunions and a crossover toe. I never would have gotten these foot problems if shoes that actually fit the shape of your foot were available when I was younger. All shoes should have a wider, deeper toe box like Ahinsa shoes! I’m also vegan, and I could never find vegan hiking boots that didn’t hurt my feet. Sustainability is important to me, so I like that you try to use eco-friendly materials. Ahinsa shoes are a perfect fit!

Love the quality and the design
I have worn the sandals twice. Love the quality, the design, the outsole and the fact that they seem easy to clean.
However, I would like the exterior part of the loop for the big toe to be attached 1 cm more to the center of the sole (more to the left or to the right). Also, the ankle strap is a little bit too long for me, a loop to tuck the strap in might be a good idea for the future.

These are my first Ahinsa shoes and I am delighted! I tried them in the rain and my feet stayed dry. Extremely comfortable, my feet don't sweat. There is an option to walk without the soft insoles that come with them, I like that option because it feels completely like walking barefoot. When it gets colder, the soft insoles will bring warmth to the foot.
The foot has enough width and ultimately it feels like you are walking around the city barefoot, but still protected.

They just work.
I was a little unsure of sizing because I think this has changed since I bought my first pair of Ahimsa shoes five years ago - still going strong after near constant use. My new Flow navy barefoot sneakers looks to be another good decision! There is plenty of room for my wide feet and my toes can wiggle. I ordered size 40, with feet measuring a touch over 250mm.
Good barefoot, vegan shoes aren't easy to find but Ahinsa are doing this so well - shoes that protect your feet from the elements but don't restrict or dictate how you move.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for coming back to Ahinsa shoes after all these years. We’re really glad your new pair feels like the right choice and that they give your feet the space and freedom they need. 👣 We truly appreciate your trust and support.

no better shoe
I have a pair of a Hamsa knee-high boots that I have had for over five years and have walked them through mud and water and over sand and over rocks and now on my daily sidewalk mile each day, and they are in perfect shape and only need to be wiped off occasionally if they get too much mud. They are comfortable on my miss shape and feet and I am forever grateful for the two pairs that I now own, and for the tennis shoes which are also comfortable. And they look as they did when I bought them. I worry that you won't have enough business since they wear well so very, very long.

Hello Joanna, thank you so much for sharing your experience. It’s great to hear how well your Ahinsa shoes have held up over the years and across so many conditions. We’re really glad they stay comfortable and reliable for your feet. Your note about their durability made us smile – that’s exactly what we aim for. And thanks to customers like you, more people get to discover them. We truly appreciate your support.
With kind regards, Ahinsa shoes Team 👣

I liked everything about these shoes. And I particularly appreciate how resilient the upper material is. One thing I hope you will do in the future is to make more production run of the Shuma cities (autumn). I would like to order two/three at a time, but currently that’s impossible, and the wait for a replacement is too long.

They are comfy but the toe box is actually a little too wide for my wide feet. They look a bit odd because of it. They also tend to shift a little crooked when I walk so that the sole is not aligned perfectly with my foot. Perhaps it’s just my foot shape but I haven’t experienced this with any other sandal before. The materials seem to be very high quality and I do like the look of them. This is the only barefoot Birkenstock-style sandal I could find. US buyer beware: under current import laws, UPS will charge you for the duty fees. I had to pay an extra $50 on top of the $10 shipping fee Ahinsa passed along. Because of this, these are by far the most expensive sandals I’ve ever owned (around $235 all-in)!

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We’re happy to hear that you find the sandals comfortable and that you appreciate the quality of the materials.
We’re sorry, however, that the fit did not feel quite right for your foot shape. Our barefoot sandals are designed with a naturally wide toe box to allow the toes to spread freely, but we understand that this may feel or look different than expected, even for customers with wider feet. The slight shifting you describe can sometimes be connected to individual foot shape, sizing, or strap adjustment, and we would be happy to help you check whether a different adjustment or size might work better.
Thank you also for mentioning the import fees. For orders outside the EU, customs duties and carrier fees are set by the destination country and the shipping provider, so they are unfortunately outside of our control. That said, we completely understand that unexpected additional costs can be frustrating, and we appreciate you bringing this up.
If you haven’t already, please feel free to contact our customer support team — we’ll be happy to look into the fit issue with you and help as much as possible.

Fastastic shoes
After initially using Ahinsa shoes for 2 years as everyday shoes, I was very satisfied and bought my winter shoes and a pair of sneakers from them. Most if not all my shoes are now from Ahinsa.

Awesome shoes, everything perfect.
Although, I’d appreciate if you stopped offering UPS shipping, UPS is awful (shipped to wrong and faraway pickup point, email saying to pickup in a wrong place where the parcel is not, etc).

Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback about our shoes. We are truly happy to hear that everything was perfect on the product side.
At the same time, we are very sorry that your delivery experience with UPS was so frustrating. We understand how inconvenient it is when a parcel is redirected to the wrong or distant pickup point, especially when the tracking information is unclear or incorrect.
Shipping quality is very important to us, even though the final delivery process is handled by the carrier. We appreciate you sharing this experience with us, and we will definitely take it into account when evaluating our shipping options and partners.
Thank you again for your kind words about Ahinsa shoes, and we are sorry that the delivery did not match the quality of the rest of your experience. :)

Ther houseslippers do not fit very well- the material is not well distributed to fit the foot.
Ther houseslippers do not fit very well:
the part that goes over the foot:
fornt part is wide, wider than my foot, so that part is quite large
however the part closer to my foot is way too short -it is not
quite eregonomic, it does not give enough space- so I had to
make an extra hole at the very edge of the fake leather...
Also I am disappointed with the sole- it looks like just a thin plastike sheet
Reply from ahinsashoes.com
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear that the house slippers did not fit your feet as comfortably as expected, especially around the front strap and the space over the foot.
Fit can vary depending on the shape, width, and volume of each foot, and not every model will suit every foot type equally well. However, you should not have to adjust the shoe yourself to make it wearable. Please contact our customer care team with your order number, photos, and ideally your foot measurements or outline, so we can take a closer look and help you find a suitable solution.
Regarding the sole, our barefoot soles are intentionally thin and flexible to support natural foot movement, but we understand that the material may feel different from what you expected. Thank you again for your honest feedback — it helps us improve both our products and guidance for customers.

the best brand of minimalist shoes.
I have been wearing minimalist shoes for 10 years and I tried other brands before discovering Ahinsa. I never looked back since. Their minimalist shoes are : truely minimalist, vegan, made in Europe, confortable, goog looking (IMO) and have outstanding durability and wear resistance. I have many pairs and only wear Ahinsa shoes nowadays.

the best for hard work but...
I work in a farm so toughness is a priority as water proof also, i have tested 3 different hiking style shoes the closest to a working boot and thus ones were and still are the best ones! by far... you just have to go up a size!( as they say, i didn't my bad) especially if you plan to use the insole comfort we the winter.
They are a bit asymmetrical in the front of the shoe when they make a small bump for the big toe.
My only downside and that probably will interfere we the water proofing and stuff is the material of choice... i would probably choose hemp and couted with hemp wax and natural rubber for the sole, would it last the same? probably not, maybe, but would cost less on every system including decomposing on earth

I live in - LOVE - these.
I've been wearing AHINSA boots for several years, and they are my absolute favorite. At this point, I don't know what I would do without them. I'm so glad they make them in my size - size 35. I have the JAYA BAREFOOT WOMEN'S ZIP UP BOOTS. They are phenomenally warm and comfortable. I also have the SUNDARA WINTER ANKLE BOOT - again - phenomenally comfortable. I wear the ankle boots every single day during the Fall/Winter. They're also extremely easy to take on and off. These are the best boots EVER.

Wonderful shoes but could be wider in the toes.
I love some things about Ahinsa shoes. I have some berry red comfort sandals with velcro straps that are wonderfully comfortable. The vegan leather is great - doesn't mark and doesn't look worn out. The styles are really cute. The only problem I have had is that their wide shoes are not quite wide enough. I tried the Binda xwide shoes and they squeezed my little toes. I bought some white winter boots with tie laces that wrap around the back - I don't see them on the website any more. Again, they squeeze my toes just enough so that they get cold. So a little wider would be really helpful. Otherwise, they're great.
