My FiveFingers – Vibram, FiveFingers, Toe Shoes, Minimalist Shoes

Anyone else looking forward to a break from rain, ice, and snow? For more than a week, I had to wear my traditional shoes because of all the rain and melting ice. I refuse to be Old Slushy Coldfoot, so it was time for the Diesels. Ugh. Nothing says foot pain like the wrong footwear. [...]
