    Haha i know my freind has a pair and he says they are awsome. The only thing i would worry about is if u went out in public with them and people stared and started to think "wtf is he wearing" haha.

    There's a big 'ol thread about this somewhere....but they are to make your gait more natural. When we run, we are made to run on the balls of our feets and not our heels. Modern running shoes provide support in the heel so we naturally run on our heels, which puts a lot more stress on our joints and takes away from our natural movements. I don't own a pair but i plan on it soon. I do run on the balls of my feet though, even over very long distances. No more shin splints But your calves will be sore at first when you switch up the way you run since running with yours heels hitting first takes a lot of weight of your calves (because it puts the weight on your bones and joints like i said before).

    I have a pair of the blue ones. They feel great on your feet but do take some time to get use too. At first it is hard to get your toes in but as time goes the material starts to sort of form to your feet. (In a sense). They do get smelly but the cool thing is that you can throw them in the washer. I have the running ones and even though they are made for "running" you can still feel the rocks on the bottom of your feet. I paid about 106 with tax. They are pretty cool though. Oh and it helps separate your toes...lol

    ive had mine for about 3 years now. theyre great for running if its dirt or hiking outside trails woods etc. ,They give you shins splints after running on concrete for a while. I can notice a difference in balance though, theyve helped alot with the quickness of my feet for switch kicks and explosive movements. They are on the pricey side and the good socks you wear with them are like 15 a pair. hope this helps
