So here is my full review on the Jikatabi:(quick side note, I jump around a lot in this review, but it really is a mound of knowledge on the product and it's usage)First off, you need to know your size. To find your size, have a family member or friend take a rule with centimeters and measure from the very back of the center of your heel, in a diagonal plane or line to the tip of your big toe. Whatever the measurement is add 0.5 centimeters to get a comfortable size. Or if you are like me, get the exact size of your foot, but be prepared for some mild pain. Note: by pain I mean you need to break in the toes of the Tabi, this can take anywhere from a couple days to a week or two.Okay so you have your size, great. Now you know what size you need to buy. I had a hard time figuring out how to size my feet, so I thought I'd write that really quick so others know what they are doing when it comes to finding their sizes.Okay now lets start the actual review:The package arrived quickly for me and in great shape (awesomeness) I ordered a size 26 Jikatabi (because that's my true size, no 0.5 centimeters extra added) and as expected I needed to break them in. I wore them around town, ran in them (yes you can run in them, however, please understand that these shoes conform or mold to the ground like bare feet, so if you can't walk or run barefoot outside, then these shoes will take awhile to get used to and they will hurt more than likely, shoot I do free running in these because they work so well and I am comfortable running in them) and I even worked in freezing rain with them (that last one is not recommended as the Jikatabi are NOT waterproof, so buy waterproofer if you are going to use it in wet or snowy conditions) It took me 3 days to fully break them in and get them to stop rubbing my toes fiercely. But now that they are broken in, they are as comfortable a shoe as anything I have ever worn (like cloud walking). They squeak when you first wear them, so make sure to wear them a lot to make that go away, once they stop squeaking though, be careful, you'll sneak up on people on accident. I currently own a Velcro style Tabi and these new Jikatabi which have the metal tabs. Now, as expected, I did not know how to use the metal tabs at first, but I do now, and to anyone who reads this, here are a couple tips:the metal tabs are easier to adjust from the bottom upthe metal tabs are easier to connect if you flex your foot upwardsThe metal tabs are a pain in the but until you get used to them, so be prepared to be frustrated at firstthe metal tabs need broken in just like the rest of the shoeso there's some hopefully helpful tips on the tabs.As I said above the shoe is made of a canvas much like an All Star or Converse shoe. They are not water proof, however the stitching is magnificent, and they should under normal care last quite some time. The rubber on the bottom seems very durable to me, and is slip resistant. The buts have a tight fit around the legs or calves I should say when properly adjusted so they won't slip down or fold over on you. I would recommend Tabi Socks which will make them more comfortable.Overall this is an amazing product. Five Stars, A+++, the only recommendations are buy waterproofer and socks.Any other questions, or even comments, tell me or ask me and I'll answer the best I canI hope my review helps,IanPlatinumWolf
