So there you have it!<br /><br />As for the running, I still hit the occasional pebble but, in the Vibrams, I don't have to actively avoid things. If you've got a shop nearby that carries them, I recommend trying them on and wearing them around the store a bit. Something about how they feel just makes sense (if that makes sense).Matt Heroldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12377793048734065843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296737484483343018.post-56182367410183212912010-08-23T01:35:03.522-07:002010-08-23T01:35:03.522-07:00How does your girlfriend find them for standing fo...How does your girlfriend find them for standing for long periods? I have high arches & find that if I'm barefoot & moving I'm fine, but if I stand for long periods my arches get sore. I've tried running barefoot & liked it, but dodging detritus messed up my stride, so I've been considering these for a few months.Alice Ronaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14080355753506039665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296737484483343018.post-55385659230216230282010-01-24T12:01:31.874-08:002010-01-24T12:01:31.874-08:00Thanks Valarie!

(And if you start getting chased, bonus!)<br /><br />My girlfriend just got a pair and she's starting to wear them when she teaches. She says they're changing her life! (Naturally, I'm going to take full credit for that.)Matt Heroldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12377793048734065843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296737484483343018.post-48407406010433055872010-01-21T12:36:07.134-08:002010-01-21T12:36:07.134-08:00Love this post!

I HATE wearing shoes... although I do not run very often. Ok, ok, I never run unless chased, but that's neither here nor there.Valariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05905180017349610912noreply@blogger.com
