Saw a dude in the gym wearing these today. Not sure I dig the individual toe slots.

I find these things (shoes or socks?) to be very bizarre.

They look decent for calf raises I guess.

And squats too. I used to like barefoot squats back when I worked out in a shithole gym. Nowadays, corporate gyms frown upon that shit

I have three pair of Nike Air Rifts, they look better and much sleeker than those...especially my black pair.

The Vibram 5 fingers are big with Crossfit ::) folks and some types of trail runners (the fellas that want the barefoot experience, but don't want to go shoe less).

I've heard good things from about 80% of people that buy them. The real trouble is for folks with odd shaped/odd sized feet, lots of rubbing complaints. Also, they'll smell like a hobo's ass if you aren't careful about cleaning them every few days.

Interesting I always like shoes for squatting barefoot put too much pressure on my low back.

Really - do you get them at normal athletic shoe stores? Do you wear them when working out only & always?
