    I've been seeing them a lot on the web recently. I guess you got them for running? I don't run, but I like the concept. Anything that closer to natural form should be an improvement over engineered solutions.

      no, i got them for the walking around barefoot feeling without being barefoot...

      i like barefoot, but it's not socially acceptable..

      walking the dogs, hiking, fishing, as well as grocery shopping, and general kicking around

        So how do they feel, do they work? If theyr worth it I might get some of these.

          I've had a pair of these for a couple years. I absolutely love them. They've been everywhere from the grocery store to the appalachian trail. Good choice on the more closed foot version red. I have the regular "sprint" model, like yours but without the mesh, and stuff gets inside of them a lot. It 's a minor annoyance but aggravating nonetheless.

            after 1 day, they're pretty awesome, no regrets..

            i've stubbed my toe a few times, but that's part of "being barefoot" right?

              These look pretty awesome! Any idea how durable they are? I've had my current pair of sandals for four years now, and they barely have any wear...

                  I had something similar to those when I was 14. They were called ninja shoes. You could pick up a death star with your big toe and throw it at your enemy.

                    I am really amazed at how well mine have held up. I've worn them a lot for about 2 years and it hardly shows.

                      Thanks! It looks like they have different models depending on what you use them for. From indoor only training, to outdoor running and rock climbing, with a few in between.

                        Yeah they even make them in ankle high varieties like boots. They have really expanded the line over the past couple of years.
