Gym Topic of The Day - Shoes

Had a short but interesting conversation with an older gentleman in the locker room today.

Him:  They sure are getting popular.


Me:  Uhmm. What is?


Him:  Those silly shoes you have on. A few months ago, you were the only one I would see wearing them. Now they are getting to be everywhere.


Me:  Well they are super comfortable and great to work out in.


Him:  Well I suppose so.


And that was the end of the conversation. If you haven't guessed it yet, the shoes he was referring to were my Vibrams Five Finger shoe that I wear everyday when I am at the YMCA.  Our conversation made me wonder where else he had seen people wearing VFF's. After all, I couldn't imagine him and I frequent the same circles.  It wasn't until a few minutes later when I was in the workout room that I noticed another guy wearing some Vibrams as well. I guess that answered my question!
