I bought a pair of Xero Dillon canvas sneakers about a year ago, intending to just wear them at the gym. I've ended up wearing them as my everyday shoes as well, and the canvas is starting to wear away in some places.
I'm looking for a similar pair. I'd even be willing to just buy another pair of the Xeroes, even though I wish that they lasted longer.
Has anyone tried Origo before? Their Cotton Canvas Everyday Sneaker looks similar to the Xeroes that I have. https://origoshoes.com/products/the-everyday-sneaker-gen3-in-cotton-canvas-black-amber-sole-men

What is "vegan cotton"?

I think it's probably related to dyes, dye fixers and other chemical treatments it might need

Y'know, vegan cotton. Like non-GMO salt, or gluten-free water.

Check out Whitin shoes on Amazon, they are way cheaper and last forever. You may want to purchase insoles for them. You cannot go wrong with them seriously. I am sharing this info only and am not interested in any debate, thanks.

Oh cool, I hadn't heard of those. I'll check them out. Do you use insoles with them? I'm guessing they have to be special, barefoot-shaped ones if so.

Regular insoles work great, I have two pair with insoles, nothing special is needed, you cut the insoles to a shape of your choice.

Yes, I buy them regularly. They are a little narrow for a 'barefoot' shoe but the groundfeel is decent with the insole removed.
They are totally fine.

Sorry, can't say anything about them. They look nice though. I've bookmarked the page for my next purchase. Thanks for posting, sorry for adding nothing to the answer.
