"I am naturally a very "barefoot" person... you know the type, the one who takes off her shoes every chance she gets? Wears sandals and slip-ons so going from shod to nekkid-footed is as easy as possible? Is intimidated by tennis shoes? That's me. When I first saw FiveFingers, I knew my feet had found their sole mate. Sure enough, once I took my first pair for a walk around the block (gravel, rural road), I knew I'd done the right thing... they felt *better* than barefoot. I am a hiker/backpacker. I haven't taken these on the trail yet, but I'm scoping out the area trails to figure out how to best transition towards hiking with FiveFingers. I plan to eventually trade off between FiveFingers and my backpacking boots hoping to keep my feet and muscles conditioned for both regular hiking and backpacking. After a just a week with the KSO's, I just ordered a pair of Classics for an upcoming extended road trip to wear for normal "tourist" activities and to carry as backpacking camp shoes. I went with Classics because they'll be easier to slip on and off. I'm taking the KSO's too for beach/swimming and light hiking we'll be doing."
