I have way too much to catch up on right now to be writing a random post… ahhh, oh well! My husband came home today with a pair of these and I just had to share…
They are SHOES! With spots for your TOES! Ha! Have you seen these before?! They’re called Vibrams, and they are seriously hilarious-looking. I asked him if he felt funny wearing them, like people were staring at his feet. He said he didn’t, they were so comfortable. 
He and I read Mark’s Daily Apple (and Mark is a huge proponent of these shoes), so I had seen them online before. But I’d never seen them in person, and let me tell you they are so funny. When you wear them it is like you are barefoot but protected. I had them on in the above pics, and they really are comfortable (even though these were big on me). After a 30 minute run, my hubby said his feet felt great. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with these, maybe I’ll consider getting a pair, too. If you see me out and about wearing them, don’t laugh.
The guy at the store said he sold 110 pairs of these on Saturday. And that didn’t count the ones where they were out of stock, didn’t have the right size, etc. Apparently these are all the rage right now. Who knew?! Anyways, that’s all. Just wanted to give you a chuckle. :)
My brother actually has two pair and his girfriend even got a pair too! Thought I would share because I hadn’t heard of anyone else with these shoes!
Excellent, thanks for responding, Amy! I know, I’d never seen anyone with them either. Thinking about starting a toe-shoe club.
I’ve seen people here in Chicago running with these. They are supposed to be great for building up the various muscles in your feet/ankle. I’ve also seen people running barefoot on the street! These seem like a much smarter alternative!
Oh my gosh, Marci – I can’t imagine running barefoot in Chicago! I agree, as goofy as these look, they are definitely a much smarter alternative.
