I don't see myself wearing them to events, but they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I forgot I had them on most of the day and noticed Found many benefits of wearing them at the shore I bought a pair today after reading all the posts on this website.

Seriously, best shoes ever -- and I normally am such a shoe snob. But wearing these while exercising and walking around the neighborhood has helped me undo a lot of the damage done by my cute shoes. Seriously, they are soooo good for your feet, legs, back, and overall posture. And if you are a runner, please look into the benefits of barefoot running (Born to Run is a good book to start with) -- not to mention the hazards of wearing normal running shoes, and yes that includes that $200 pair you bought that's supposed to be good for you but isn't. These aren't exactly barefoot running, but you'll get the benefits without the ickiness. And yes, they are comfy -- very comfy. It doesn't matter if your toes don't go all the way to the ends. It's just fine. They have a good big of stretch in them, too. There are different models, though, and you'll want to try them out to see what is best. I found the classic model came up on my heel too much, but the Sprints are perfect for me. My husband loves his KSOs, though.

My first exposure to these was the other night when sure enough a man I know who otherwise seems to be a good judge of things, wore them to a presentation on family relations. All eyes, on his feet. No compliments were emitted. Had we been in the forest or rock climbing maybe.... In this setting however, they just appeared even more odd looking.
