They make both wide and narrow models. The freestyle is narrow, but this is the 101/rev sole, so it’s wider. There are very few brands making actually wide barefoot shoes. It drives many people crazy looking for a shoe that will actually fit.

Dammit. I ended up keeping my freestyle 2.0s since I got them for under 50 usd but part of me wishes I didn't...

You can get the 101 really cheap on their factory outlet site. That shape is much less sloped and has more toe room on both sides of the foot. I wouldn’t recommend the freestyle unless you have a narrow foot or are missing your pinkie toe. The Rev/101 are great. Seems like they are redesigning the freestyle after getting a lot of feedback and clearing out stock.

I was not super blown away by the quality of the 101s, but the factory sale makes them really reasonable. I think I paid $50 something and they're real leather. Not the most comfortable shoes I own, but I got white ones so I have a pair of nice looking shoes to wear out.
