I got those five fingered shoes, a tiny 16gb flash drive keychain, 2 bottles of whiskey (chateau de rogue and i think colinswood), a bottle of 100 proof belvedere vodka from my grandma, and a slack line.
And $300. And a beer.
Describes me pretty well. I'll only wear those shoes for running though.

Alcohol and running does describe you fairly well, mix the two together and great fun can be had

26 will be quite a good age. I persume it might be possibly the best age of them all. Just something about 26 that just sits very well

It's a strap you tie between trees and attempt to balance and walk on it. it's got slack to it so it's difficult.

I've been using nikes lately which I love.
My toes don't feel funky at all weirdly, I figured they would too. Took a while to get them on because my baby toe doesn't like to be an individual.
they seem to be something I'll have to break in a bit to fit right on my feet. Ill probably get blisters somewhere.

Wire walking I bet really helps you condition the feeling in your feet and toes for way better balance
You'll probably be climbing up buildings in no time

I see a lot of people wearing them this time of year. Appalachian trail runs right by my cabin, and a ton of people walking the trail stop off for water and to rest....half of them wearing hiking boots, the other half wearing those finger shoes. Really look weird, but they claim they are comfortable.

is there a point to those kinds of shoes, or they just are neat?
by point i mean, circulation, or like those sneakers that are supposed to tone your calf, correct a foot problem. that sort of thing.

I've heard, (never tried them) that they're as close to barefoot running you can get without it being the real thing (which hurts like hell).

Barefoot like running and walking. Strengthens your toes and their dexterity, giving you better balance. Running in a barefoot style is arguably better for joints and works extra muscles in the leg/ankle/foot.

In that case I might have to look into these. Looking into doing some trail exploring this spring/summer. Got 2000 acres of woods with trails to explore less than a mile away and by golly I think its time I checked out more than the first mile or two of one entrance. Hmmmmmmmmmm
