giving a positive review =/= freaking out. Looks like someone needs to look up the meaning of meltdown, lol

interestingly enough, Abebe Bikila won the Olympic gold medal in the marathon running barefoot

I'm guessing you know all about being on the receiving end? ::)

Cool pic.

I think that very few, super light, world class runners have ever competed barefoot. Very few.

World class cats only use their racing flats on race day I believe. Our heart, lungs and legs and much tougher than our feet.

then maybe you didn't visit their website or read the warning label that comes with their shoes. They caution anyone who has never worn minimalist shoes to gradually adjust to them. I thought this was common sense but apparently people need to be told what to do. It's like wearing a cast for a while and then expecting to jump right in where you left off. However, with time, your leg muscles will adapt and you will be able to run in them without injury

Correct.  People are stupid and follow fads without doing research.  I come from a family of marathoners ( I personally say fuk all that shit and will prefer to do sprints) and they do on average 2-3 marathons a month and are part of multiple clubs and these types of shoes are a joke in the community.    You will not see any real runner wear this shit.
Wait for it....

lol, the irony. The guys who wear those shoes don't give a crap what people think. They care about function over looks. You, on the other hand, seem to care an awful lot about shoe fashion and what the world thinks. If you want to know what happened to men being men, then look no further than yourself

According to women skirts are comfortable too. I'm not wearing one. I hear they are very functional.

perhaps you forgot about kilts. However, I assume you're referring to the women's garment. Skirts are feminine. Vibrams are gender neutral
