so. question. i'm looking into buying barefoot running shoes, but i don't have the money quite yet. while looking around at prices, i found a neat alternative. someone basically took a pair of aqua socks and removed the insoles. are these good enough until i can afford a good pair? or even better... are they a good pair that i could use for a long time? haha. thanks in advance!

[DemonDrills]

@danecookisawesome888 I have never tried that. Let me know how it works!

I sprained my ankle 6 months ago, haven't trained seriously since. Should I switch to these barefoot shoes now in my everyday life, or just when I'm training?

[DemonDrills]

@RichJayWar1994 I would only wear them for warm ups or every day activities. Part 2 of this video explains why. :)

@afran17 They are decent shoes except the soles are a bit too thick and not very flexible.

@DemonDrills The most immediate thing I can think of is not getting your foot cut up if you step on something sharp you didn't see...
