Five fingers of failure
I am always amazed at the things people will wear on their feet in public, flip flops with toes that look like they were clipped by Honey badgers. Bright neon Crocs matched ever so perfectly with their Sponge Bob Pajamas. Or those danskins clogs with knee socks and never mind on that I think those can be hot looking on occasion TG for hot nurses female Dr.s and waitresses.

But then there are these.



I sort of get the whole<b> barefoot </font></b>athlete without actually being barefoot, thing. Man those acorns can hurt a Kung foo masters foot what hope is there for me. But why would you want to wear something that seems suitable for the beach so that you don't get that random heroin needle in your foot. Good luck if ya like em.
Don't compromise yourself! You are all you've got!

 SkeleToes! They're very strange looking. I've only seen one person wearing them. Some of the brands only have 4 toes....they put the last two toes together. That's gotta feel weird!

Ohhhh the ninja shoe version I haven't seen those. But these are very popular here and seem to be anyplace that has an REI

 There's a lady at my gym who where's them. I'm sorry but toes were meant to be together not apart. There just wrong.

LOL I saw a guy about 300 pounds at the gym wearing them somehow. It just didn't look right. Then today a guy that was shopping with his kid at work was wearing a pair with his high water pants.

 LOL - they are apparently great for running. They actually force us to run more up on the ball of our feet than the damage of a heel strike.

I have a couple of my arthritis patients who wear them as well, because although odd-looking they provide them with a whole lot of pain relief.
I am a celebration of willful chaos and a hugger.

I sort of get that but wouldn't shoes like the NB minmus least be a little less dorky looking? I can see them for perhaps rock climbing and like I said water sports.
