Now I can walk again I'm so happy that I came across kyBoot shoes. I suffered from Plantar fasciitis and walking caused pain in my foot and heal, it made me feel really old to be hobbling around. With these wonderful shoes now I can walk again and it is liberating! I walk everywhere with a great sense of freedom and independence. I have three pairs, an everyday shoe, a sandal and a gold sandal for special occasions, i won't wear anything else.

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.

If I could give this company a minus… If I could give this company a minus number I would. I purchased their Baekdu boot and wore it ONE time! After my hike of 3 miles BOTH of the outside soles had cracked at the instep area. I immediately sent them back asking for a refund. They are refusing to refund me in full and are only offering 1/2 refund for the boots or replacement. I don’t want a replacement, I want my money back. This is horrible and not acceptable. Any suggestions? I emailed this company several months ago regarding this matter and still haven’t heard back from them!!!!! I’m trying to let them correct their wrong.

Great comfort - style could be improved! I absolutely love what kind boots does for my feet how I’m able to walk over all kinds of terrain in comfort. If you’ve ever had any peripheral neuropathy this is the shoe for you. I would like to reach out to the people who run the company to suggest that they try to introduce some style into their line of shoes the one sandal I like the Roman sandal they took off the market so I did buy the other ones they’re just not pretty on the foot. However the feeling is like heaven. So I wear them But wouldn’t it be great if they had some really stylish models where they could incorporate the base into a more attractive shoe.

Wet Feet Note: I am a UK customer. I bought a pair of jungfrau 17 walking boots about four years back at just under £300 hoping they'd help me keep active with my post traumatic ankle arthritis. Disappointingly my ankle was too painful so I couldn't wear them for the first couple of years. Then I had ankle replacement surgery and discovered I could wear them - wonderful shock absorption and support. Sadly in approximately 15 months the rubber around them cracked in a couple of places and I started getting wet feet. I complained but was told the guarantee had run out - of course I'd had them for much longer than I'd used them. Now I have two bike puncture repair patches on them and continue wearing them though they look a little eccentric. For the cost this is not good and sadly I'm now looking for another type of better quality boot with the equivalent shock absorption.
