I saw some very cute guy wearing these on his hike down Runyon Canyon along with his trusty Old English Sheep Dog, Josephine... there are so many thing about that last sentence that I loved...
They are called Vibram FiveFingers... and I guess people do all sorts of things in them... walk, run, kayak, hike, do yoga... they are funny looking. And these in particular make me think of gorilla feet.
I can be convinced into about most things, but I don't think today, you will find me in these up Half Dome.
Andrea and I actually saw three people hiking in these when we did our hike to Nevada Falls in September. We thought it was the weirdest thing but apparently these are great for the feet and some argue they're even better than shoes. I think I'll stick with my hiking sneakers and actual closed toe water shoes, though.
