Why did I buy them?
I read Tim Ferris’s blog about the Four Hour Workweek all the time, but for some reason I missed his post about these shoes. One night around 2am I was doing some online work when my friend Bill IM’d me about these shoes that he was buying. He sent me a link and I thought they were some goofy looking but also cool shoes.
That night Bill and I went looking for a Blue Camo pair size 42 and we found out that they were out of stock everywhere. I happened to like the gray ones and while searching for his, I found a single pair in stock in my size. After spending about an hour looking for shoes for Bill, I thought to myself, why not? I paid $85 and I purchased a pair of the Vibram KSO shoes in Grey Palm color.
When I originally saw these shoes upclose I thought that they were a cooling looking novelty shoe. I thought that they would be different and just a casual shoe not really meant for any type of hard athletic exercise.
