New Shoes

When we where in Portland, walking down Exchange street we stopped into J.L. Coombs to see if they had a pair of the FiveFinger Shoes for me to try on. The sails lady was really wonderful and I ended up buying a pair of these lovely Chocolate Blu shoes that I’m completely in love with. The leather is so soft and they fit so perfectly it feels as though I’m wearing slippers.

Here’s a link to Chocolate Blu’s website.

5 Fingers ready for Hiking on St. John

| Edit Post

For Eric’s birthday I got him a pair of FiveFinger shoes. The shoes are made to truly give you a barefoot experience with increased traction and comfort. Sizing is very important because they literally fit like a glove on your feet. The Vibram Five Fingers are designed to promote better foot mechanics—naturally. As such, they're intended to be worn directly against the sole of your foot, allowing your foot to move as if barefoot.

Eric reports back that they feel fantastic and I think I have finally figured out a way to get him hiking with me on St. John.
