Maybe if they took the brand out of it, it would be a good idea. I went through a Vibram phase a decade or so ago. I really enjoyed it; being unable to wear them at work, and the added difficulty of putting them on and off eventually turned me off to them, but I felt the concept was great.

For me the worst part was wearing them on any hard flat surfaces always made my feet hurt, I have a high arch and it felt like the pain was due to not having enough support

Yes, concrete was certainly an issue. I figured I just didn't wear them enough to get used to it. So many runners are able to do it.

Oh! That could have been it, but also runners aren't exactly a healthy standard, those weirdos are cool with bloody nipples. /s
