We’re supposed to walk on our feet, but we wear shoes for protection and fashion. This has a drastic impact on the amount of injuries we get as a result of walking the wrong way. This souds a bit wierd, but there’s an excellent article in NY Magazine which had me reading it the whole way through.

So what can we do?

We can wear Vivo Barefoot shoes:

where the sole is so thin that it feels like you’re walking on bare feet but are protected.

This is the store

Or there’s the Vibram five fingers shoes:

which you can buy here

You can buy them from toesocks.nl

Of course if you want to wear socks with them you need toe socks!
