Receiving the same 10 out of 10 score as the women's version, Fitkicks make a great option for casual sporting activities or just lounging on the couch. This shoe is also a great match with Correct Toes. One of the main reasons is the upper material. It is so flexible that it adjusts to the shape of your feet. Fitkicks are extremely light weight and easy to slip on and off. Although the strap does add a touch of personality to the overall design, it's not adjustable. There’s also a toe guard to help prevent excessive wear in problem areas. Fitkicks do run a little small, so you may want to go up a size.

Just missing a perfect 10 is the Leguano Ballerina. This light and flexible shoe is widest at the ends of the toes, but not as wide as we’d like. Although this shoe is compatible with Correct Toes, it still missed the mark with our shoe liner test. Due to the upper material being a little tight the Ballerina appears to have some toe spring, but please note that it doesn’t affect the foot once the shoes are on. The breathable mesh comes in a handful of colors and is made of a patented material that protects against wear.

The Impari Hana is designed as a casual canvas shoe, even though its base is built on Xero’s high-performance sandal. This shoe is compatible with Correct Toes, but didn't quite pass our shoe liner test. Its natural foot shape and zero drop design allow for proper posture and movement, and at about 8 ounces per shoe it also feels very light on your feet. The sole starts at 5.5mm (which is the one we reviewed), but there's also a 2mm option for an even greater connection with the ground. Overall, the Hana really is a nice addition to Xero's line of footwear.

This highly anticipated women’s version of the Impari Hana has a great look, but isn’t quite as wide as its male predecessor. Even with some eventual stretching to the upper material the Lena is still a great natural foot option, and not quite right for Correct Toes. It’s also not as rugged as the Hana, but does offer many of the same natural functions and features. One of them is the ability to flatten the heel and wear it as a slip-on. The canvas material comes in three different colors and has a fit that is true to size.
