  • My boyfriend and I both have Vibrams, and we LOVE them. You seriously get a workout walking in them because you’re engaging muscles you never used to. I’ve also noticed that my posture is better, and that I feel “lighter” when I walk. For those concerned about the way they look, the brands Merrell and Altra (coming April)…

I've only seen people get tired or extremely cranky when they are experiencing this, but perhaps it affects me in this way. And to the people who said that this could be me mourning the loss of my "friend"....you are…
