my strange problem

[AlphaRyder]

yeah I got a strange problem, uhmm well let's that it's a kida ''orce'': OK like a normal ''na'vi''(I don't like saying that I'm a na'vi because physically I'm not but only mentally) ,I do my homework and take out my slippers and go to walk in my garden(it's not a forest but it's all I have)and when I get out my feet start to pain! ah it's like feeling the bone but when I go back to the garden and step the grass it stops ahha what a deep connection! and my feet continue paining till I sleep (I hurts more when I with trainers) LOL

Barefoot is the way to go... it's how we were meant to walk. Just enough covering to prevent cuts would be ideal. I'm getting me a pair of Vibram Five Fingers.

Vibram Fivefingers are the only way to go. I have a pair of classics and just ordered some KSO's... I live in them!

[AlphaRyder]

ahah but it's different walking without anything you feel the *flux of life but thanks anyway! (I meant that when I'm not in the nature my feet hurts)

Yeah, naturally the ground is alot softer than man made things such as concrete or whatever the floors are in your house. Its nice being able to walk on the grass and have some give to it.

Stepping back for a minute, if you really do feel pain walking on hard surfaces I would get that checked out by a doctor.

nah it's not a pain but it's uncomfortable walking



and I'm confusing things(or not) It is uncomfortable when I walk with shoes I hate 'em! but now I realized that is normal so, my bad.
and @sempu how much do you paid for your Vibram Fivefingers? maybe I want one ,if I had money*

[Grif]

They range around $80

I actually have two pairs, I recommend the KSO

I have nike frees, which are a middle ground between barefoot and shoe. They let the foot flex the way its supposed to, and I heard Vibram FiveFingers is a bit better in mimicking barefoot. However, in my experience (as a runner who sometimes logs 70 miles a week), I reccomend au natural. If you're looking for that barefoot feel, then go, hmmm, barefoot? Sure, the shoes keep cuts away, but believe it or not, people all over the world don't have shoes, and they are fine. I read an article one time about a man who only runs barefoot, and how his feet slowly became tougher, stronger and less prone to cuts. He said with walking like that everyday, his foot naturally lands on things to avoid cuts. He can run over a shard of glass, and won't cut his foot at all. And this guys is no super-athlete, just an everyday jogger minus shoes. Personally, I reccommend barefoot and if you really have to, go with one of those shoes mentioned. They're good if you have to leave the house.
