    Five fingers.

    Does anyone else own a pair of Vibrams?

    DH and I amuse ourselves by laughing at people who own them but since I'm a huge fan of barefoot running I've decided to give them a whirl. I have to admit that even though my feet look ridiculous they feel great.
    I love them already.

    That said, I won't be wearing them in public unless I'm running or at the gym.

    ETA - I got the socks too

    I've seen them but I'm not tempted to buy them yet - I hate the feeling of stuff between my toes so I'm not sure I'd like them. How do your feet feel after a big run in them though? They don't look terribly thick.

    I hate stuff between my toes too which is why I've taken so long to take the plunge.
    I haven't had a big run in them yet but in the quick run I had around the garden I noticed I used a totally different foot strike.
    I'll have a 30 minute run on the threadmill tomorrow and see how it feels.
