They hold up well for me — I wear them now to walk to the library (about 10 blocks each way). It really has to do, I think, with one’s shoe preference. Some people like thinner soled shoes that let them feel the ground; others not so much.

These shoes look thin-soled and not suitable for a lot of walking. Wouldn’t it make more sense to invest in a sturdy but fashionable pair of shoes that could cover both needs? This is a necessity for me since I live in nyc. There are many cute shoes out there now that you can actually walk in and hold up well.

For Condo and Rachel — Another reader, Brad, emailed letting me know he just bought a couple pairs as a gift after reading this post — and after searching out a coupon code — gokigo20 — that gave him 20% off until Thanksgiving. Just in case you want to take the splurge :)

I’m intrigued by these!
I take the 3 everyday and I wouldn’t trade my commute for anything. It’s usually really reliable and there is great people watching. I can read instead of focus on traffic. And when I have days like yours where everything goes wrong and I get delayed, I just remind myself that I don’t have to spend 15 – 30 minutes looking for a parking space every single time I go somewhere.

I have some and they are attached to my feet. They are the only shoes I can wear in the rain bc they are water resistant! If they get soaked you can rest assured theyll be dry in 15 minutes! I walk everywhere and kigos has made this a much better experience for my feet….especially if Im going out on a night out on the town, whereas before Id have to wear some form of uncomfortable highheel, and walk a mile or so, but now I can just slide on my kigos and be out the door! If you haven’t gotten a pair yet you’re totally missin out!

You had me at barefoot – I’m not fond of wearing shoes, period. I think they would be great, especially for travel because you can dress them up or down. I’m definitely looking into these.
