It's like anal rape: tighter is better. If you think they fit just right, then get a size smaller. They do expand over time. Other than that: love them.

I saw a guy walking up walls wearing a pair of those

Geez first the crocs shoes now this shIIt

Fooking gay... Wouldnt be caught dead in them... Enjoy them though, you H-Mo :>)

Heard a "slap, slap, slap" noise in the gym the other week and when I looked at where the noise was coming from it was a dude on a treadmill wearing those monstrosities. You could tell he was dying for someone to ask him about them, so that he could bore them to death about the benefits of them, how they mimic barefoot running etc. He probably does crossfit and follows the paleo diet, too.
I'm sticking to Nike Free.

do you wear them to work out / run only, or are you one of those douches who wears them to dinner?

Acxtually I think they have been around longer than Crocs not sure. They were a sponsor of mine once. They work great in the water (ocean). A little to get used to though. They defintiely draw attention to your feet. I gave away more that I kept.

vibram the company's been around for 80 years or so , just making soles for shoes. they started making these in 2006.
how are these comparable to crocs? they're training shoes that basically just cover your soles so you don't cut your feet while running outside. crocs are for fat chicks and mario batali and are 10 cents worth of molded plastic?

I wore them to the gym too once in a awhile. I tend to kick machines by not paying attention so after that happened the first time I stopped. I wore them mostly because I went into the ocean all the time and in Kona it is a rocky bottom so they help. I just liked them too cause no one else had anything like it. Like you said Crocs are just molded plastic. They are like those wooden shows they wear over in Sweden or wherever

just thought i'd update for you who give a shit.
i bought the shoes, ran in them friday and yesterday (as per the manufacturer, to ease into them).
mostly recovered from initial pains, but hamstrings still killing me. this might seem weird, but because the running's essentially flat footed, with each stride hamstrings get about an extra inch of "stretch" (thickness of old running shoe sole), so now they're really sore.
got a few blisters, but that was to be expected. also, i'm not running any faster, but it's a real bitch to run 1.5 miles in these, i'd say i'm more exhausted than running 3 miles in regular shoes at the same pace. not sure if it's mental or what, but it sure feels harder.

Those are just as ridiculous as this guy

I'm not 14 anymore, so what others think of me doesn't really bother me. Besides, i don't live in kindergarten, most people around me don't point at people and yell "ha ha, you're so gay because of your shoes".
These things matter to you, that must be why you're an insecure twink "competitor".

I've been thinking about getting a pair. Not necesarily for running and DEFINITELY NOT for going to the gym in. I don't see how they would be any benefit to the gym. I would get them for water sports and hiking or scrambling around out in nature. There is some science behind them and if you think about it native americans used to run around, hike, climb, walk, sprint in moccassins so how are these any different? I wonder if they are quieter out in nature as well? I wouldn't wear them to the gym though.
I actually wear MBTs for work. I used to have plantar fasciitis and tried everything. The only thing that ever worked were the MBTs. And THEY ARE NOT the same thing as those fucking Sketcher shape ups. MBTs are $200 for a reason. Shape Ups are fucking $50. And don't worry I'll be the first to admit that MBTs look fucking gay but they work. Most comfortable shoes I've ever worn being on your feet all day.
