Review Summary
Customers say these shoes are exceptionally comfortable and versatile for workouts, everyday wear, and travel. The wide toe box is frequently praised, particularly by those with wider feet, allowing toes to splay naturally during lifting. Users consistently highlight the stable, flat platform and ground feel during exercises like squats and deadlifts. Many appreciate the lightweight construction and quality craftsmanship. Common feedback notes that sizing runs small, with some recommending going up half a size. A few mention the laces are long and the tongue feels stiff initially. One user noted they get hot during workouts. Most customers report buying multiple pairs and becoming repeat purchasers.

    Feet feel planted on the ground

    Been lifting for a couple of years, wearing Nike Metcon. They're fine for what they are (combo shoe that provides some stability for lifting, some cushioning for short runs), but was ready for a change. As a relative noob to lifting (59M 195lb), I knew I wanted something with a wide toe box, not zero drop, but also not with a big wedge heel. So this seemed right. I don't love (or hate) the color, bought it because it was on a deep sale. My only regret is the laces - they're a bit much ;-), I'll probably change them. But as a shoe, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for - my feet are BOLTED to the ground when I'm lifting. I can really feel my toes spread out (big toe gripping the ground) when deadlifting, they feel really stable.

    Savage 1's

    Have loved these shoes so far. Every workout I've done the shoes have been super comfortable. They give me great support and cushion regardless of what the workout is. I will buy another pair for sure. Keep up the good work Born Primitive.
