I have some Merrell's with a vibram sole. They're ok with me. I never liked the "wearing a foot" look though. 1/26/2018 1:54:53 PM |

Between the two of us I think we do pretty well style wise, but can't seem to break his undeniable love for these shoes. He says I hate them so much because I can't really wear them on my non-meat foot. 1/27/2018 1:00:57 PM |

I have a pair. I am kinda outdoorsy in the spring and summer, so if I'm going on a hike to a waterfall or something where my feet will get wet, I will wear them for that. Wading across a river with bare feet is no good with a backpack on. I also wear them when doing yardwork simply because I can throw them in the washer afterward and they will be good to go again. I realize you can do this with regular shoes though, but these things aren't loud as fuck and they dry out very quickly.
Sidenote, I got mine I think in 2009 or 2010 and they are still in excellent condition. VERY comfortable. 1/27/2018 2:34:33 PM |

Did the Australians give you a lot of shit for wearing them? We went there last year for a few weeks and so many people gave Joe hell for wearing these things. Although Sydney wasn't as bad as Melbourne or Perth. 1/28/2018 11:48:48 PM |

I read a thing that said they can cause foot problems because they keep your toes spread out unnaturally 1/28/2018 11:50:46 PM |

I bought a pair in 2004. They finally broke this year when the sole separated from the fabric upper. 1/23/2025 2:53:43 PM |

I have a pair that I use solely as vacation shows when I'm in and out of the pool, or on the beach. They serve their purpose, but I always feel like a dweeb.
My other pair I use in the place of my Timbs when I'm shooting my pornographic films. They provide good traction. 1/23/2025 3:19:22 PM |

^ That is what I used my pair for. The sole separated in a hot springs in Colorado. 1/23/2025 4:16:03 PM |
