Foot-shaped running shoes with a low drop, now owned by Designer Brands
Tony Post ran Vibram USA through the FiveFingers boom and then built the moderate version: a roomy toe box and a low drop on an otherwise conventional shoe. Designer Brands, the DSW parent, took the company on in 2021 and left the product team in place. Free return shipping and wide sizes on a handful of models; no factory list.
