Cosmic, just curious here but why do you want to use such shoes to run?
Do you find "regular" running shoes to be unconfortable?
There is quite the debate in the running world on shoes right now....it is a micro and irrelevant debate in the grander scheme of things of course but some runners treat it like a religion!
Anyway, having tried those minimalist shoes and a few months (as I said earlier) and not having liked the experience I am curious to find out about why some people swear by these shoes.
Good luck anyway! |
Hey Pat,
Actually, I just like the idea.
Being able to move the foot a bit more naturally, toes and all, appeals to me on some fundamental level.
I loved running barefoot as a kid...no better feeling.
But I also think as minimalist shoes...they should have minimalist prices...lol
I want to give the fivefingers a try...but not at double the regular price.
I am quite comfortable in my Asics Gel Kayano shoes.
Just thought I would give these a try.
I am big into footwear...and enjoy the developments being made....but not the developed prices.  |
Thanks!
I see your point about prices too!!! |
