Has anyone used the Vibram Five Fingers 'shoes'?

1 Answer

Answer :

I have not used them myself, but two of my friends have, and they are very much in love with them. I have used the Feelmax shoes, which have a thin sole, with the same idea. I found those wore out fast on pavement. Now, I just figure if the idea is to replicate bare feet, I might as well go barefeet, and do that. ;)
