Great soles, terrible uppers I bought a pair of women's hiking Kybun shoes. I love the soles - they perform as advertised. However, the uppers are terrible. Toe box is too narrow and causes pinky toe blisters (and I don't have exceptionally wide/large feet or thick socks). The ankle rim is stiff and bulky and hurts my ankles - hasn't broken in even over several hikes. I ordered a half-size larger than my usual size, and the shoes feel short and cramped. So I love the soles, but the badly constructed uppers make these shoes unusable for me.

I had my Kybun for 3 years but I hardly… I had my Kybun for 3 years but I hardly wear it, only some days in winter and out of the country. I live in Taiwan, Kybun Suede Sneaker is too hot for regular days here. The problem with their shoes is their midsole/outersole cracks easily and there is no repair for that. Buyers Beware😭

Super easy every step of the way All the people I've worked with on this one have been wonderful. Ben from the UK, plus Marina and Laura here stateside. ... Side note: we need more colors and styles of these Kyboot. There is no other shoe I'd ever wear after owning these. I need them in every color and style. There needs to be a resurrection of the Seoul or a similar looking product (this is in the vein of classic timberlands, a style that's always in), a variety of bold colored sneakers for both genders (one solid color like red or purple or gold, including all-white ones), black high tops like for basketball, a golf shoe, etc etc etc.. Can't get enough of these Kyboot!!!

You couldn't make it up About 6 months ago i requested a size 13 boot in lieu of a size 12.5 when available. Initially put on hold i tried a few more times but response was not forthcoming. Plagues by kybun adverts i have just responded by trying again and have come to a dead end while trying to order again, a test pair . Its so infuriating that the daily adverts have become a wonderment.

Zig-zag and straight stitching hurt The zig-zag seams along the edge of the insole are rough against my skin. I own the Gaya and didn't notice the roughness until it was broken in but since I wear socks with those it's not too bad. BUT 3 summer shoes and sandals that I ordered have rough fabric which curled into my toes and rough stitching (1 with straight stitching and 2 with zig-zag stitching). I really wanted these shoes to feel comfortable for this summer.
