Dress Shoes with a Barefoot design
I am looking for dress shoes which follow a barefoot model design like converse but dress shoes. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks.

Sanuk Rogue is a decently presentable dress shoe, aside from the garish sole color.

one thing i would say about terra plana is get on the mailing list or email them and try to buy when they have an online sale.. not uncommon to get 15-30% off periodically.. |

The Asics Tai Chi is a nice one, but a it leans a bit to the casual side. It's white leather with black swooshes on the side. The fit is long and narrow. Very soft sole; you can easily bend it either way to make the toes touch the heel. Costs about $75 and can be found on ClassicSportsShoes.com, I think.

I have the vivobarefoot Dharma's: http://www.terraplana.com/dharma-p-1603.html?colour=57
They're definitely good quality shoes. I highly recommend them. Definitely look for coupons. There are often coupons listed on www.retailmenot.com. In fact there is a $50 off coupon listed on there today, that expires today.
Jump on it! |

Wow that is a hell of a discount...how does the sizing go?
I typically have to get larger in Nike Free's than my "regular" size and then in Vibrams I'm way smaller.

I wear the same size in Vivo's as I do with my OL shoes (so I'd say go smaller/snugger).
