Barefoot shoes are the new "it shoes."  The market was pretty well established before New Balance entered it. With the bar set high with the likes of Vibram FiveFingers and Merrell Barefoot, New Balance carved out a unique place for itself with their Minimus Shoes.

The New Balance Minimus is a hybrid minimalist shoe.  It is ultra light, has reduced padding in the sole, but unlike other barefoot style shoes, provides the type of support you would find in a high quality running shoe (while remaining true to the barefoot philosophy)...with a slightly raised heel.

The award for the perfect active Mary Jane may have a winner – ExOfficio’s Notus Rugged Mary Jane. Just one look at it and you want to start running up mountain trails. The thick and heavily treaded sole is meant to give good traction on all surfaces, including wet ones. It has an elasticized strap that will move with you without squeezing your foot and the odor-resistant footbed is cushioned for a smooth and sweet smelling ride. The leather upper is water resistant and stain resistant so you don’t have to worry about side-stepping that mud puddle. And its moisture-wicking bamboo fabric lining keeps you dry and is very eco-friendly.

ECCO shoes for women combine the incredible Freedom Fit that is found in all ECCO shoes with polished design and style.  ECCO shoes are perfect for the workplace, a weekend getaway, and everything in between.  The ECCO collections are more expensive than other shoes on the market, but when I have compared the quality, design, and fit of ECCO shoes with less expensive shoes, the difference is apparent.  ECCO shoes cost more because they are made better, last longer, and feel better on.
