Fun Finds Friday

Five Finger Shoes  


These may be my favorite shoes ever.  It took awhile to convince myself to get them... but now there is no going back.  Vibram knew what they're doing with these puppies!

I ran a half marathon last fall and I guy running next to me was wearing these. Are they that comfortable?

they ate THAT comfortable. I don't run, but my mom does and she just got herself a pair. She said it's like runny barefoot and because of the shape they help you not to jar your body as much... Love them :o) Congrats on the half marathon BTW!

WOW, those are crazy! I have never seen such a thing. They DO look comfortable, though!

I have been so curious about these. I hate to wear shoes, but I have structural foot issues so it is recommended that I don't go barefoot. (I do.) Maybe this would be a happy in-between for me.

Jodi - it feels to me like being barefoot other than the fact that the bottom of the feet are protected. I hardly notice the mesh in between the toes because it is so thin. The only thing I will say is that there is NO arch support (but I have always had such high arches that I don't notice the difference... yeah, they're that high). You should head out to your local REI and try a pair to see what you think.
