Subject: RE: Barefoot/minimalist Follow-up I don't run in my VFF's, but I do wear them as everyday walking around shoes. Like mentioned above, they allow your foot and calves to strengthen but still allow you to walk around in public where being truly barefoot is not allowed. Even just walking around in them, you kind of have to work up to it (depending on how much you are on your feet ). I would not recommend buying a pair and then immediately taking your family to Disney World or doing an all day hike or you will be in a world of pain! For some of us, they are also way more comfortable than most traditional shoes. |
