After borrowing a friend's Men's Health magazine with an article on barefoot running, one thing lead to another and I found the Vibram Five Fingers website. This led to other Googling and I was immediately intrigued and found a pair nearby the next day. I ended up with these, the VFF KSO's in Black/black.....
After wearing them for a few hours, I can say that I am absolutely AMAZED at how natural and comfortable these things feel. I even walked around out back in dirt, rocks, sticks, stickers, grass, brush and so on and it felt so.....right. Even walking on gravel and river rocks wasn't a trying experience. Absolutely amazing feeling!
My feet are a bit tired, but as I've come to understand it takes time for your feet to get used to using all those muscles it hasn't used wearing normal shoes. About the only drawback I can see is that my feet got a bit toasty in the sun, and I can imagine that I'll need to be washing these often to fend off stink.
I know that there are at least a couple people here who have them, anyone else enjoy these "shoes"?
