Disclaimers

Physical: these recommendations serve to illuminate shoes which help the foot work. There is no substitute for going barefoot when running! None!

Financial: By clicking on the links below and purchasing anything, I get a small kickback which I use to fund further workshops. Thank you!

Criteria for following recommendations

• Very flexible sole to encourage the foot to pronate, load, and grapple while walking and running, i.e.
  • allow the foot be a foot
• No high-heels
• Lightweight
• Inexpensive

Recommendation: XeroShoes

• My favorite: Huarache-style DIY sandals
• Their other shoes are great too

Other footwear

I am currently evaluating other footwear. If you have any suggestions drop me a line please.

Interesting tested shoes:

• vivobarefoot
  • So far: good normal shoes
  • the sole is generally too stiff
• vibram fivefingers
  • good ground connection
  • stink horribly without a regular vinegar treatment
  • Expensive relative to their durability
