  • Top 5 things I want for my feet

     
    Footstretch from footstretch.com   Oh, how I long to increase my arch and turnout
     
    From Timberland.com (quickly becoming my favorite shoemaker):  Design your own boatshoe-- try it here.  It's very fun.  And a Women's Earthkeepers™ Vintera Chukka -- made from recycled plastic bottles, rubber and organic cotton.  Oh, crunchy, unique and fabulous!

    And, because it is so cold in our apartment:

    Some long slipper boots.  Bur, I am freezing!

    Lastly, I know they are so weird, but I really want to try the Vibram 5 fingers shoes

  • Vibrams are fun! I really like being able to feel the ground. You get some weird looks and responses, but whatever! G has KSOs and I have Sprints, both in black. I'm glad they're offering more colors now. If I got another pair, I would consider the Bikilas, mostly because they come in blue, but also because I'm curious if they really are better for running. (Although, for the record, I haven't run in my Sprints yet...I'll get to it, I swear.)

    Definitely try them on before you buy them! We both had to return ours, because we got the wrong size. I suspect mine are the tiniest bit too small, but the next size up was too big.

  • My dance teacher and one of my best friend's mom LOVE thier 5 toe shoes!

    Saferia's tp 5 Things She Wants For Her Feet:

    1. Pretty toenails. Her own, not fake ones.

    2. Sorel women's waterfall boots in flax

    3. Sanita's Marguerite shoe

    4. A pair of cute black flats

    5. A good pedicure when chemo is done, or maybe that footstretch thingy. YOu've got me interested... I have a pretty good point(e), but my turnout is HORRIBLE.

  • 5. I'm gonna stick with the pedicure. That elastic band looks thick and high maintainance... $100 too... If I were a professional maybe, but since I'm just an average Jane I'm gonna go for the pedi. ;)

    Sidenote: The music in the video was like a repeat of the first 5 notes of the "Seinfeld" intro, repeated...

  • @PixieMinx - ooh thanks for the tips!  :)   I want to try running in them.  There is that whole barefoot running movement.  I feel like I should at least experience it a couple times.

    @Saferia - I share your love for Sorel boots!  I just checked out the waterfalls--nice!  They look warm and awesome.  There is such a thing as fake toenails!?!  for real?  Does chemo wreak havoc on your nails too?  damn. :(   You know, that foot stretch is expensive and all.. I wouldn't actually buy it unless I won some money or something.  I bet one could fashion her own using a theraband and use something around the house for resistance.  hhmmmm...... brainstorm

  • @justgotspaid - Maybe you can find a video on youtube to make your own footstretch from scratch. Haha!
