Barefooters... Gloves for your feet?

I think with the separate toes you would have a little better balance and a better "feel" for whatever you're walking on. . . It probably doesn't make much difference on most surfaces tho.
 
The white are condemned to wear shoes since they nailed the feet of their god. That's what say the indians of Amazonia.

Bizarre? I rather think it's an interesting point of view which illustrates how a culture is seen from an other one.
I hope to don't hurt any religious sensitivity here.

I don't see the point of having the separate toes, other than novelty. What practical purpose does it serve? Seems the downside would be the chance for blisters and hot spots between your toes, an area that even on barefooters isn't already toughened.

Otherwise, speaking as a barefooter, I think the low ones would be handy to pack as emergency footwear for large gravel, thorns, and other temporary areas where you might want protection, without packing a lot of weight.

I think they're gimmicky as all heck; kinda' like those socks that are sold that look like feet, with the separate toes:jerkit: 'Seems' like a good idea until you try on the socks and they're a PITA to put on one toe at a time:jerkit: Then with 'shoes' I just gotta' think all the debris that'll get inside these 'five toe thingies' is going to get to be a raw hassle in short order:barf: But I don't own 'em and that's my take on them, I returned the Christmas socks:thumbdn:
