Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

did your feet get sore when you first started wearing the barefoot style shoes?

nope! in fact my feet hurt so much less at the end of the first day (despite the increased amount of time I had been on them!) that I clearly remember raving about it to my husband, because that was the impetus for buying him a pair

same experience for him too, though he felt a little weirder the first day because he's used to wearing giant boots all the time

For me, it was my calves that got sore. Not my feet. Zero drop means you will be working a slightly longer range of motion on your calves.
