Vibram Five Fingers

I am currently unable to search as my computer is crapping out and I'm on my iPod so I appologize if there is already a thread. Does anyone else rock the Five Finger shoes? I picked some up a couple of weeks ago and I love them. They are super comfortable and I love the feeling of being barefoot everywhere. I went on my first run with them today and although I definitely feel my calves (running barefoot defintely forced me to run more on the balls of my feet than I have been) it felt awesome!

I've worn em for a few hours before, and my friend owns a pair and wears them all the time. They felt amazing, especially because I love the feeling of walking/running barefoot, and this solves all the inconveniences of that.

I have the KSOs and they are sweet. i wore them all the time when i got them but burned the bottoms of my feet real bad one night drinking around a fire with hot coals laying around and it hurts too much to wear them now, in a couple of days theyll e my main shoe again though

five fingers are pretty sweet, they do unbelievable things to strengthen and improve upper and lower leg, as well as foot muscles when you run in them (or even just kick around town in them), if you look at the anatomy of our feet we were never designed to wear shoes, and many doctors acknowledge many foot and lower leg injuries and issues to shoes or poorly designed shoes.

that being said the only girls that dig it are the outdoorsy chicks and hippie chicks...

it just sounds like you are too picky then, plus when is a pair of shoes and only a pair of shoes gonna prevent you from getting laid, i could wear jesus sandals with a tuxedo and still get laid if i said the right things to a girl, plus it would be a good conversation starter

wrong on the cockblock. my buddy bought them the other day and got asked about them like 7-8 times within the next few hours about them. Its an easyy opener for sure. and if your not a douchebag and have some sort of personality continuing a conversation from there is a breeze

Exactly. If you are willing to admit they are ugly as sin and can joke around about them then you shouldn't have any problems.

My mom read this title and asked me what I was doing.

Awkward conversation has started.

I have the kso and they are sooo sick.  I bounce on trampoline and do parkour with them and it is so much better than tennis shoes.  Swimming and cliff jumping in them this summer is gonna be the best.

My brother has them, he seems to like them a lot. I don't know why anyone would ever wear them outside of running, though.

the only kid at school who wears them is this huge faggot whose obsessed with running and incredibly annoying

it's a cool concept but i'd probably only rock them alone in the dark...actually i would never wear them because i have tons of foot problems and i am in no way a runner

Just got my KSO's the other day.  By far the best thing that has ever been on my feet (except my iL moro's)

To anyone who thinks that picking up chicks is dependent on what footwear you have on; you're an idiot.
