In my case it is a shoe that I would try, but that does not have a rubber reinforcement on the toe

So far the major manufacturers have approached the book with some minimalist shoes, Nike has its Nike Free line, Saucony ProGrid Kinvara took her some time and has the New Balance Minimus line that has recently come on the market. All are oriented sector minimalist but have some features that makes it not be considered a minimalist shoe 100%. To take a common example of the three all have high heel.
At first glance it looks je is a lightweight shoe with little one. In particular its sole has a thickness of 13mm in both the front and heel, so it is a very flat shoe. Its weight is about 130g for a size 10 US. Is constructed with a stretch foam cubes fabric that conforms to the foot giving the feeling of using a rope and sock Velcro.
In this image you can see the curious way that makes the shoe from the heel to the tip. Instead tightened's shoes as we are used to, this is becoming wider, to make room for the toes. It is a way that many ADPT minimalist shoes and seems very comfortable.
The sole is made basically the same material that is responsible for the damping guess some kind of EVA. Has two reinforced rubber heel and another one just below the big toe metatarsal. I get the feeling that it should also be strengthened to the outside of the foot as it is one of the parts that suffer wear runners who run with the middle part of the foot or the tip. It seems as if, paradoxically, is a minimalist shoe designed for running foam cubes with heels.
People who have been lucky enough to try it says it is very comfortable, with plenty of room for the toes. The "sock" fits well but need something else to hold more firmly the front as it seems to be a little dancing. The sole is rather soft, which some do not like minimalist, but others are grateful to have a little buffer.
In my case it is a shoe that I would try, but that does not have a rubber reinforcement on the toe I would hesitate about buying it because it is precisely in this part where I usually wear shoes more .
