tis a bit chilly to go barefoot :-). I have always hated shoes - and got into numerous discussions when people don't like me not wearing them. I have heard of the Vivobarefoots before - maybe I should take the plunge.

Yeah, the Barefoot looks like something I could wear in the office (if I got them in black), and not have to worry about people complaining. I go barefoot at home all the time, and I'd do it outside if the pavement wasn't chilly and people wouldn't stare at me :->

I like mine (Aqua in blue, a colour they don't seem to offer any more), and after about 3 years they show no sign of wearing out at all. However the sole is not that much like going barefoot, as the kevlar is really quite tough. It's certainly lots more flexible than yer regular shoe, of course!
