STIMULUS V2 Lightweight Shoes – Minimalist & Breathable 

Lightweight shoes, the Stimulus V2 has a versatile design that gives a lightweight and comfortable feel on your feet from the gym->coffee shop->work->dinner. The enhanced features offer an even more lightweight and comfortable feel than before.

Includes all the typical features in a barefoot shoe to give you strength with every step of your day. For those that are new to the non-chunky shoe world, that means it has a wide toe box, zero drop, and a thin/flexible sole. 

So why a Stimulus V2 instead of the Stimulus V1? We listened to our founding member's feedback, and made improvements to create and even better feel. Here's what's new on the V2:

-Improved structure to eliminate a pinch point on the top of the foot

-Decreased the amount of material used to feel less bulky and more snug feel on your foot

-Increased durability of insole, 0.5 mm thicker

-Lower ankle height

-Grippier laces

We have also added some new sizes to give you a better fit. If you were a Women's 9-9.5/Men's 8-8.5, for example in the V1, you should order the Women's 9.5/Men's 8.5.

Ready to feel the difference?

 

Size Chart

The Stimulus line runs slightly big. For example, if you are typically a women's 8.5/9, size down to the 8-8.5 size. If you are more of a women's 9/9.5, the 9-9.5 will be perfect. Reach out to info@minnemals.com for help with sizing.

Care Guide

We recommend spot cleaning. If necessary, you can machine wash cold on the gentle cycle, preferably in a garment bag. Air dry only. *We do NOT recommend machine washing the latte color. Baby wipes or dish soap work well to spot clean them*

The shoe I didn’t know I needed.

I never knew I needed a barefoot shoe. I was against them until I tried them. Minnemals were my first experience with barefoot shoes, since I put them on last September (2024) I haven’t looked back. I tried to hike in my Columbia shoes and experienced so much pain. Pain I never had before wearing Minnemals. I am an owner of both the V1 and V2! Now that I have purchased my third pair of Minnemals there is no turning back. My pickleball and golf Game have thanked me, my knee pain has decreased and I can actually feel the strength in my large toe while doing strength training. On another note, the Minnemals sweatshirt is the coziest thing ever. I live in it!

A great shoe!

This was my first pair of “barefoot” shoes and they are amazing! The customer service is also incredible. Happy to support an ethical, woman owned brand! 🙌

Loving the functionality and look of the Stimulus V2!

This is my first pair of barefoot shoes and I'm loving the experience of wearing them and the look of the shoe. I've been in the market for a daily shoe replacement and these have more than fit the bill.

I've slowly adopted to wearing them as my muscles adjust and strengthen to the barefoot design. It's proven to be a seamless transition and you can feel the difference in your feet.

I'm bullish on MINNEMALS! Go buy!

p.s. I'm a size 13 and the 12-12.5s fit great.

LOVE THESE SHOES!

I absolutely love these shoes. My very first workout with them felt so great! I literally get excited to put them on. They do run a little big, so I recommend sizing down if you are in between sizes. The look, the feel, the design… Highly recommend these shoes!

Love my Minnemals!

Great fit. I love that when I'm wearing these shoes my entire foot is engaged and activated as it should be.
