Easiest way to explain them dog shit proofing your feetQuote:

I started barefoot running about a year ago due to crazy shin splints. I noticed when I was on the mat, no pain. So I started running barefoot, and even started working out barefoot. I was up to about 5 miles in about a month after going barefoot. I'm going to look into the five finger's, because my gym gives all the MMA guys grief for walking around barefoot and lifting barefoot.
IMO, barefoot is a million times better than shoes, but the five fingers seems like a decent compromise. Plus, they look pretty 21st century ninja-like.
Great post, I'm on it son!
i have the all black KSO model. they're the least goofiest looking. when people see them, they think i'm just wearing black socks until they look closer.Quote:
