Don't get too excited though, one wrong move and it could all come crashing down.

Yeah, Bright Eyes love only means you're winning with Switchy. The rest of us are perfectly capable of being honest with ourselves about the fact that they're one of the most unlistenable bands of the last twenty years.

And bury the $40 I spent not even a month ago?

Maybe I could use that shovel to plant a money tree...

I know this was a few pages ago, but I've had a pair of Vibram's Five Fingers for a while now, and I would highly recommend them, especially if you're naturally flat footed. I have no arch, so the lack of support had usually made Chuck's my shoe of choice, but after a while even those give me that customary sharp pain in the center of my foot. Vibram's do take a few weeks to wear and retrain yourself, but if you love running around with no shoes, if you love barefeet, they're a great, (though somewhat pricy,) buy. They dry out pretty fast, they increase muscles which translates to stamina for alot of people. Douchy or whatever, (which may mean I'm just biased and live in a socially oblivious sect of the U.S.,) they're amazing if only for the fact that I truly forget I'm wearing them, plus the add ability of sensory perception that they come with, (i.e. feeling sand and rocks, and grass while wearing them) make for a very interesting experience.

Aside from a National Show last October and an Interpol show in January I've worn these to all my other show going experiences, they stand up well, even with the sporadic foot.

Vibram's Five Finger Shoe's, that's the KSO model, (Just KSO, not the Trek or the Sport,) You can go to their website or REI. They're generally not carried in most shoe stores, mainly specialty hiking, and outdoors stores, it's really hit and miss. You do really have to try them on first, because they are supposed to fit like a glove, so the standard, "wiggle room we generally give ourselves in normal shoes are painful mistakes in Vibrams.

There aren't really any that they make specifically designed to be waterproof and able to be used out of water, which is the only downside in my opinion. But you never have to worry about losing them, or them falling off, which happens to some, if you're already ok with flip-fops/sandals/crocs, getting wet, and by proxy your foot, then when your foot gets wet wearing these, that shouldn't upset you either.

The benefit to these, (mainly during the day,) if the shoe gets wet, and the begins to dry it always feels like a mini refrigerated units for my feet. At night I tend to wear the special toe-socks for them, and though I may feel moisture coming in from either a drink or random liquids, my foot tends to stay warm, and it will dry in the shoe, (essentially I've never experienced that wierd chaffing, sticky feeling you get when your sock gets wet.)

If you do I would do it soon so you have time to break them in... again about two or three weeks, you do have to retrain yourself how to walk around in them. Maybe it's just me and my partner, but whenever we have them on we just want to run and jump off of everything... It's quite enjoyable to perpetuate that adolescent mindset, that's the only reason why I got her a pair too, so we can run around like little kids in the adult wonderlands, like Sasquatch.

Totally not making fun, in fact, I think I was the one who brought these up in the first place. "The human foot is the ultimate machine." I think I definitely want a pair of these. I remember in soccer practice we spent a long time practicing barefoot, because if you kick the ball properly it doesn't hurt your foot. One of the most valuable lessons I learned from soccer. I imagine the retraining process is a doozy, but its probably totally worth it.
