I’ve mostly gotten glazed/confused/vaguely frightened looks from people who’ve asked about my shoes, or when conversations about footwear have come up. (I’m not stopping people on the street and proselytizing mind you.)
Do you have to fight the urge to approach people wearing shoes with 4-inch thick soles, shouting, “Vivo saves!!” 😏
What’s your experience been when discussing your footwear with ‘civilians’? 🤔
I wear shoes from groundies. Tried a lot of brands, all didn’t suit me. These are so subtile and minimal that nobody even notices and they have supreme build quality.
I am not familiar with barefoot shoes, are these considered to be that or just very thin soled shoes?
I’ve had people listen to me ramble about the benefits and call back to ‘Born to Run’. They always seem to understand the reasoning but never go much further than an “I’ll have to check it out”. I think it’d be easier to get people to try it if there were more brick and mortar stores carrying a few brands. Even 1 brand would probably be more than enough to get someone to see how comfortable proper fitting footwear can be.
I’m very new here so I guess you get a point for luring me here haha
no, I don’t
My parents have switched over to barefoot shoes, not exclusively per my suggestion but in conjunction with a friend of my mom’s singing its praises.
