The following invention put smile on my face and made me think that everything is not so bad in this world. However, such shoes make me feel a bit confused as well – Vibram FiveFingers are both unusual and nice but they look so strange.

Vibram FiveFingers

They do look strange and I even can’t imagine how it feels to wear shoes like this. According to the manufacturer, such shoes will be your second skin and will easily improve your balance, agility and proprioception. What is more, the manufacturer claims this shoes to improve your health.

As to me, it is possible to wear them for exercising and playing but it is really not the best idea to wear them in public places -   you’ll be laughed at. I must admit such shoes are not the cheapest variant ever – each pair costs $190 but it will create a gloves-effect to your feet.

Most people claim that wearing such shoes actually means like being barefoot. Would you like to try?
