Got myself a pair of these for my b-day

[BayGBM]

Prolly less, I have a pair of $120 Nike Tuned Airs that apparently cost .75 to make.

Yikes!  Are you serious?

These gave JTsunami ingrown toenails and bleeding haemroids

I'm guessing you don't wear socks with it. Doesn't that cause an odour problem?

[JimmyJam1974]

No socks. They're too new to determine odour issues

They are designed to be machine washable, no?

[tonymctones]

i think anyone who wears those needs 3 swift shots to the head

hahaha I saw a trainer at the gym the other day wearing these...

You should have gotten a pair of these instead. 



This man endorses them.

yep, and air dry.

i got some a couple weeks ago.  i've ran in them since a few times and it's a very different feeling than running in gym shoes.

my lower legs have been veiny since i started;  i'm hoping i didn't tear shit up down there, lol.

i think the "science" behind them makes sense and i love using them.  i don't go out to a dance club and slap people with my feet; i run off the main course at off peak hours, so i'm not out fishing for compliments for them.

but i do like them more and more with each run.

I read on another forum that they can get a bit whiffy and someone recommended soaking them in hot water and a small amount of bleach every now and then.

Did you have to reduce the distance you run when you first got them?

[saucetradomous]

you might as well start painting your toe nails now

well, it says to do 1/2-1 mile per run the first week or two just to get used to it.

being a true getbigger i did 2 miles the first day.  i flew.
the second day i could barely walk.  it felt like someone hit me with a car.

so yes, i'd suggest 1/2-1 mile per run the first week 

but on week two (i run about 4 miles) i cut almost 5 minutes off my time just due to sheer lightness of the shoes.  i'm not sure i'd recommend it for heavy gravel running, but i run on pavement and even though it's a weird feeling compared to a normal shoe, it feels more natural after a few runs.
