I've been looking to get a pair of Vibrams for a long time, ever since I first seem them. When I get out on trails and hiking, I hate using regular running shoes. My feet are fairly flat, so the usual arch support ends up cramping my foot and makes it very hard for me to walk naturally in them. I usually go in my sandals or barefoot, but sandals aren't too good for trails and I usually end up hurting my feet when I go barefoot.
So! I've been looking for a pair of these for what feels like forever. It feels like you're walking naturally barefoot, but there's the protection you need so you don't end up getting hurt. Unfortunately, the site has been out of stock for a really long time, due to extreme popular demand. I was lucky enough to find a running store around here that had a few in my size left in stock.
My original plan was to get a pair of Sprints in blue, but ...beggars can't be choosers at this point. I've waited long enough, damnit! :P So, I bought a pair of gray and green KSO, which apparently are the most versatile of ALL their products, which is pretty cool.
In my upcoming visit to NY (Not the city) I plan on doing a lot of hiking and rock climbing with my SO, while wearing these, so I'll be sure to let you all know how they fair.
