normiss 845 #1 August 23, 2006 I jump in Florida...and it's f00kin hot as hell here most of the time. I prefer to jump with sandals but don't care for "Circle K feet" as I call them. Tennis shoes are too hot...anyone seen and/or tried these??? http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 August 23, 2006 Nah, reminds me too much of toe socks, which I find uncomfortable (though amusing). What about Keen shoes (or the much cheaper knockoffs by Skechers and the like?)"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

DJL 235 #4 August 23, 2006 I keep saying that I won't jump in sandals anymore. I keep dragging my toes on landing and scraping off layers of skin. Also, if it's hot then inevitably you're going to sweat and feet contained in socks and shoes are better than sweaty feet covered with dirty and grime."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

guppie01 0 #7 August 23, 2006 I recently bought a pair of these http://www.merrell.com/Shop/Detail.aspx?NavID=FT-O-AQS&PID=9748 The first time I wore them jumping I was amazed at how much my feet were able to breathe... g"Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?"

Icon134 0 #8 August 23, 2006 In the summer I generally wear shoes that can be slipped off easily enough (a pair of Vans actually) with a pair of low cut socks... once I get on the ground part of my disrobing entails removing my shoes/socks and I'll either walk around bare foot or with an easily slipped on/off pair of Birkenstocks. I don't generally like jumping in sandals on the off chance that I might get a bad spot and need to land in a corn field, Soybean field, or some unknown/unkempt field...Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

lauraliscious 0 #11 August 23, 2006 I love my Keen's and jump in them all the time now. Much airier than sneakers, with the same toe protection. Enemiga Rodriguez, PMS #369, OrFun #25, Team Dirty Sanchez #116, Pelt Head #29, Muff #4091 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simplyputsi 0 #12 August 23, 2006 Those shoes are weird, but thanks for the link. I heard running barefoot helps strengthen various muscles in the foot that I'm in need of help with. However no way can I run barefoot. I've never had heat issues with my feet just wearing my running shoes, they tend to be pretty meshy.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #18 August 23, 2006 Quoteonly if you wear a thong and jump with me.... I wear a thong every day, so no worries there, but it will be on under my jumpsuit! I'm SO not jumping with you if you get those dorky shoes though! Seriously, you only have 2 more months of hot weather, then your feet should be comfortable in sneakers. Adidas makes some low-cut "cool-max" socks that my son swears by to keep his feet from sweating so much. I'm usually able to find them at stores like Marshall's, Ross, Kohl's, etc. They cost a little more than regular cotton socks, but they're worth the money.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's fucking disgusting how many brilliant ideas have been completely doomed cause some idiot thinks they look gay.
