This shoe is inanely beautiful and I want it. But I hate yoga. Looking at the reviews, it looks like yoga and pilates seem to be the primary uses. Does anyone have this shoe? What kind of work outs do you use it for?

I accept that this isn't an outdoor running shoe, but I'm sure I could find some use for something so good looking.

Please advise!

    Ugh, I think I've got a punk rock yoga video that isn't so bad. Also thinking the barefoot thing might be nice for heavy lifting.

    God, I'm like those women who buy Lululemon and wear yoga pants as regular clothing. Yuck!

    Wow, I hadn't seen those before but those look really neat. For someone who doesn't like the bulk of tennis shoes for normal use and lives barefoot or flip-flopped, If I had the ankles/legs/feet for those I'd totally wear them with some khaki capri pants.. they look fun! A little steep on the price tag, but fun. I'd probably wait until someone comes out with a cheaper version. :)

    I'm not a fan of yoga either, but I placed an order for them the other day. They were to die for I figured they'd be just fun to walk around in (considering they will fit when I get them) going shopping/out with friends around town.

    Maybe this will encourage me to like yoga...or not haha.

    I thought they'd be great to lift in. I hated them. I'd rather wear just socks or Capezio Agility Gym Shoes (about $20 including shipping).

    I was thinking about using them to start lifting because they look comfortable. Have to check out the Capezio...thanks
