We believe!

Do you need to be a serious runner to reap the benefits of barefoot esque type shoes? No!

My wife, professional dog groomer/rockstar Mom is also a believer in the barefoot movement (3 out if the 8 belong to her)

The VFF classic is her shoe of choice while grooming dogs all day. Since she has converted her feet hurt less and is able to work longer with less fatigue.

My choices for everyday use would be the VFF sprints. Light, comfy, and stay attached to your foot.

Everywhere we go people stair at our feet, little kids point and snicker...I even had a lady take a cell phone picture!

We don't mind the extra attention and are always willing to explain what they are intended for.

How it all began

I have been working in the outdoor industry for the past several years and have a closet...make that a garage full of high end gear. Lifes obligations have made it difficult to get outside like I used to and use all the gear mentioned above. I wasnt mountain biking, hiking, backpacking, ETC like i was in the past...All my gear was just sitting there collecting dust! When the highly acclaimed VFF's hit the market I got a pair to add to said collection of gear. It came to a point that I was almost self concious about having so much un-attended gear. I feared that a serious runner would come to the store and ask about the shoes and I would have zero feeback for their 'sole' purpose... I didnt want to be that 'd-bag' that had everything but didnt use it. After recently losing 30+ lbs I strapped them on and began going to the local high school track...one lap around the track lead to a full 26.2 miles (eventually) I am NOT that d-bag....now!
