Description
When these Archetype 2.0s were made, the factory mistakenly added a backing to the bootie mesh that stiffens the opening of the shoe (shown in picture above). This same backing was in the mesh on the 1.0s, so these stretch similarly to those, but have the same volume as the 2.0. Users have found the bootie to relax after several wears.
Otherwise these are brand new and identical to the 2.0s.
These are Final Sale and not eligible for returns or exchanges.
Ideally these are for existing customers who have already worn our shoes and know their size. If you do not know your size, you are assuming the risk of ordering "Seconds" shoes without the ability to exchange. (aka no harassing/threatening our customer service girl because you made a mistake).
International orders may be subject to taxes/duties which are out of our control.
Luv, Tolos

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
- JGJeffrey G.Verified BuyerI recommend this productSize M9/W10.5Rated 4 out of 5 stars5 days agoA great performance / casual shoe.
I picked up a pair of archetype 2.0 from the seconds section. I chose this shoe to replace a pair of xero HFS, based on a review by Jake from thatfitfriend. I've tried quite a few different barefoot shoe brands and I'm quite impressed by what tolos has been able to pull off with this shoe. The fit, finish, looks, performance ... All work for it. Only negative, I'm not a huge fan of the insole, it tends to shift around a bit and causes foot to spill over the sole of the shoe in lateral movements. I put a thin foam insole in from a different brand and it was near perfect fit with that little extra comfort. No more lateral shifting/spillover. Keep it up!

I own two pairs, one Black and one White. Barefoot shoes in the general are always comfortable but almost always look a bit ugly tbh. Tolos not only look better than any other barefoot shoe but are my favourite looking shoe that I own altogether. The build quality, comfort, appearance and performance in the gym is perfect. I can't speak highly enough of them or fault them at all.

Did my research on barefoot shoes this was by far the one that catch my eye love the shoe it’s stylish and comfortable but most likely won’t buy again , been using them only a week for casual walking and the soles are starting to go
Was this helpful? - LWLee W.Verified BuyerSize M12/W13.5Rated 3 out of 5 stars1 month agoinsert issue
Once I received the shoe, I immediately started wearing them. I wear them every day as I do a lot of standing and walking for work. They were comfortable and then started to develop a slip in one of the shoes with the insert. Not sure as to why all of a sudden, the right foot wants too gradually slide back up my heal causing an issue

It’s a nice shoe and feels a lot like the 10.s with extra volume. But when the shoes arrived, there were gaps between the sole and mesh all around with visible glue as well. Just slightly disappointed at that.
