And I Thought Toe Socks Were Weird…

So what shoes would one wear their toe socks with?

I mean, if you are going to go to all the trouble of separating each toe into it’s own little knitted cozy…you should have shoes to match, right?

Enter Five Fingers…the barefoot alternative…

Ok, so maybe I’m just old fashioned…or perhaps I still have a complex about the size and shape of my toes…but um…really?

Supposedly these are the best shoe on the market for running and exercise and Yoga. 

Hmm… maybe that’s why I don’t get it.

I don’t do any of those things.

By the way, if you are wondering what happened to the Easter theme…no worries – I say this still fits.  Afterall, perhaps Mr. Cottontail is looking for a shoe alternative for his long night hippetty hopping…I’m just sayin’.

That's hilarious! And useful to those in the travelling hippie/gypsy community! I can't imagine not having dirty feet after a show, but these would totally curb some of the barefoot hazards at a Phish show! I totally want a pair! P.S. size 8 lololol....

P.S. (again) So I totally just saw these shoes on TMZ! One of the actors on Lost was in the airport wearing them...Apparently these things are all the rage in Hawaii!

Hey! I told you about these! Rob has a lime green and beige pair. When he wears them his feet look like he has a bad case of fungus! Too weird!

Actually they are being hailed as the newest running shoe. Seriously. It's called 'barefoot running' and there are a few companies that have taken that idea above, but made them more 'user friendly' (they look more like normal shoes). I haven't tried them yet for running- and at $100+, I probably won't. But Ivan wears the Injinji socks for running and loves them- they are $14/pr- less expensive and no squished toes.

LOL! I love the comments - but just so you know, fabulous running shoe or not, I still think they look funny - and to me, that's all that matters!!!
