FiveFingers

I have been wanting to try our FiveFingers for a while, since last year after getting my hands on Born to Run(book).

The cost of the "shoe" is quite a turn off. The cost is about 2 times my normal running shoe and i don't even know it suit me or not. Given the cost, it just doesn't worth the investment or trial.

I tried out a cheaper version of water shoe, find it too tight and painful, i gave up after not even 300 meters on the run! Wahaha....Some thing just have to experience it before we know it suits us or not.

Of course, now it is getting so popular that it is not uncommon to see it during races.

Today while surfing around in one of my regular online merchant website. I found that it is sold there at a whopping USD$30+! All price quoted are inclusive of delivery everywhere in the world.

Wait...don't get so excited yet!...the online merchant is a Hongkong based(affiliated with china) company that carries quite a few things.

The product they carried are typically OEM which are inferior in quality. It doesn't work 100% as advertised. More than depend on your luck. If it works at least to your basic needs than good enough. Don't have high expectation.

Always read at the review on what "commando" aka first mover have experience before committing. Of course, if u have spare $ to let loose then it is a difficult question.

I have purchase from this website on a few occasions. So far it meet my expectations. Maybe i just prepare to get "screw". Finger crossed.

If after reading this and you are still interested. Do take a look here. Look under New Arrivals and scroll down and look for it. There are quite a few colours inside.

Disclaimer: use at your own risk

I don't think running naked suit me. If not, i definitely will buy. For the kind of price and risk factor involved. It is a no brainer.
