Tolos

Barefoot brand from United States, founded 2019.

Tolos is a US brand making athletic-style barefoot sneakers in unisex sizing, with models like the Archetype, Canvas High and Soleil. Most styles come in either a thin barefoot sole or a slightly thicker transition sole, so you can pick how much ground feel you want. I'd say they suit the gym and everyday wear, and reviewers often mention they fit lower volume feet best.

How Tolos fits

sloped toe box, wide width, low volume

I'd say these suit sloped, low to medium volume feet best, and they're a poor match for square or high volume feet. Archetype runs true to size, but the newer Soleil and Canvas High run a touch small, so size up if you're between sizes.
