YEAH!!! I got my Vibram Fivefingers!! These are shoes that allow you to feel barefoot while protecting your feet. I have Dyshidrosis which is a rare, non contagious form of eczema that affects your hands and feet. I rarely get it on my hands, but my feet have been a battle. I was doing so good, until the end of May when it came back and it's been pretty bad. Dermatologist claim that its stress induced, so I'll probably be dealing with this for awhile. With Dyshidrosis I am most comfortable when I am not wearing shoes, but I can't just walk around barefoot all day. When I heard about these shoes I just had to have them and luckily Jacksonville is one of the few places that actually have a retailer. I am trying to loose weight (again) and my trainer insists on killing me on the treadmill. Running in my sneakers hurt and I remembered when I would run on my treadmill at home before we moved I would eventually end up taking off my shoes.
I've had them for a few days and I love them. I wear them to the gym, to the store, to the bathroom-just everywhere. They are a little hard to put on at first because of having to separate all of your toes, but I am getting faster at it. These shoes are the Treksport which were recommend as the most versatile for runners. The sole is thicker than most of the other styles so I do plan on getting another pair that are more casual and just restrict the Treksport for the gym.
