Founding testers · Phase 1 of 4

We're new. 500 pairs at $29 for women who'll tell us the truth.

Ample Daily, the foot-shaped slip-on. It sells for $79. The first 500 pairs are $29 shipped, because we'd rather have your honest feedback than the margin.

What we make

One shoe. Knit, slips on standing, under 7 oz. Shaped like a foot instead of tapered, so the room is where your toes are.

Widest at the toes100 mm at a size 8. Normal at the heel.
Slips on standingHeel down, slide in. No laces.
Flat and thin12 mm. You feel the floor.

What we studied

We read thousands of reviews and forum posts from women with bunions and wide toes before cutting a single pair. The same line came up again and again:

"These are my most comfortable pair. Except they're not wide enough and my big toe rubs."

Public shoe forum. Not our customer, we're new.

"I've ordered at least 50 pairs from Amazon, wear them for a couple of days, then send them back."

Public shoe forum. Not our customer, we're new.

"Wide" is the same shape, bigger. It moves the squeeze, it doesn't remove it. So we cut ours to a foot. Now we need 500 real feet to tell us if we got it right.

  • 4
    Official launch$79. All eight colours, the next shoe, the site with your photos on it.

What we ask

Two minutes, two weeks after your pair arrives. That's the whole deal.

  1. Did your usual size fit?
  2. Where did it rub or squeeze, if anywhere?
  3. Did it slip on standing up, first try?
  4. What would you change first?
  5. Would you buy a second pair at $79?

Optional: one photo on your feet, or a ten-second video of stepping in. If you tick yes, we put it on this site with your first name. You can ask us to take it down any time.

What you get

  • The shoe at cost. $29 shipped, retail $79.
  • The private testers group. Sizing help, first photos, the next colours before anyone.
  • A free size swap if your usual size is wrong. Prepaid label.
  • The 100 most useful answers get a second pair free.

The honest part

We don't make money on these 500 pairs. $29 covers the shoe and the shipping.

It ships in 5 weeks because it's made to order. We'll send one update at the halfway mark, and tracking the day it leaves.

If it's wrong for you, send it back. The label's on us.

Not a medical shoe. One width. Flat and thin, not cushioned. If you need arch support or a thick sole, this isn't it, and we'd rather say so.

Sizing questions, unboxings, the first photos. And once yours arrives, help the next woman with hers.

Questions

Why so cheap?

Because we're new and have no reviews. The first 500 women who wear it are the review. $29 covers the shoe and shipping, so we lose only the ad money.

Why five weeks?

Made to order in one run so we don't guess sizes. We print the date, send one update halfway, and tracking when it ships.

What if the size is wrong?

Free swap with a prepaid label. Thirty days, worn outdoors, no questions.

Can I get two?

One per person in the test, so 500 different feet tell us the truth. Phase 2 opens to testers first.

Do I have to post anything?

No. Five answers by email. A photo or video only if you want to, and only used if you tick yes.

Is this a medical shoe?

No. It's a roomy everyday knit shoe, one width, flat and thin. If you need arch support or extra depth, it isn't the right shoe, and we'd rather say so.
