This should be taught in school, including nutrition and personal finance

[wiseguy]

I wear Vans and I confirm that your feet feels like it's slamming into concrete while running.

[erdemeebilgee]

running on barefoot shoes or in shoes like converse got my bones rattling 💀

[GlorifiedGremlin]

The fact that when I was a kid, every kid, myself included, would take our shoes off to go into hyperdrive and run as fast as possible is all I need to know lol Kids are great with intuition. If we felt faster barefoot, we probably were

[ledfloyd]

Me who's worn converse since I was 10 years old in constant unbearable pain because of flat foot.

*Y O U F O O L S*

[JoshuaVelasquez]

Me who wears vans all the time: “yes I’m safe”

[cohenkhan]

Reading these comments made me realize people can't even walk barefoot these days💀

[manguman]

I hear you, only problem is there's a decent amount of barefoot shoes companies all overcharging for shoes and non want to make basketball shoes it's unfortunate

[alc]

I can’t unsee you talking into a shoelace lmao sorry

[JessScreams]

I knew there was a reason that converse have always been most comfortable as “running shoes” for me

[pingu]

This is why brands like Nike and adidas have training shoes and running shoes, so you have the perfect shoe for the right situation

[its_jjk]

Doesn't it look like the top shoe is too small for that foot?

[schznaiver]

The toe-spring is literally designed for running/jogging as it helps give you the push-off force your toes need to speed up. If you are lifting weights, of course you would need a more stable, flat shoe. And don't give people the false narrative like "newer shoes" from Nike or Adidas are bad for you, their just different categories of footwear. Nike/Adidas still offer new flatshoes may it be for weight lifting, skate boarding and other sports/activities that requires a flat shoe.

[anaboveaveragedog]

For every one saying it’s not fun for running to wear barefoot shoes because it hurts this guy is talking about wearing these shoes in the gym (I’m pretty sure) you can see his channel is Squat University so it’s probably for doing weights not running

[feels.like.coffee]

The keyword is "in the gym", these are great running shoes. But you don't want to be dead lifting in a shoe that's designed to be unstable and roll you forward.

[bobbybingo]

God damnit man I can't even be dripped out without worrying about my physical health.

[trampem]

There’s no damn way my feet like that in a shoe, that shit looks broken as fucj

[stenslae]

I used to only wear shoes on the top growing up, but I had flat foot issues, my ankles were all concave and stuff, and overall my feet hurt. So, I started wearing totally flat shoes like on the bottom and after a few weeks of soreness my pain disappeared. Never had ankle problems since.

Also running in flat shoes such as vans hit different, yall just heel strike.

[Castleromeo]

that's why my favorite all time comfort shoes are the Adidas NMDs! Flat and so comfyy!!

[nothingishere]

People who walk barefoot 24/7: I have no such weakness
