Jolt, it's interesting that you mention this, as I've been reading a bunch lately about barefoot running. I'm certain that my poor form contributed to a lot of my running discomfort in the past and I intend to incorporate some barefoot running into my treadmill workouts, but I don't think I'm ready to try it outside yet (especially since it's nearly winter!).

Any suggestions for shoes that are "barefoot-friendly"? Bonus points for something that I can wear to work, and not just for running/walking. I've looked at the VFFs also, but which model- Classics, KSOs, or Sprints?

Maybe I should dig out my old indoor soccer shoes- they had almost no built-in cushioning and support!
