I definitely want to try a pair of barefoot shoes, John. I keep hearing so much about them. As you might have gathered from my earlier post, my concern are my orthotics: should I keep rummaging about looking for a pair of barefoot shoes that are welcoming of orthotics, or should I just go ahead and buy a pair of barefoot shoes, give the a good try, and worry later if they might be even better* with orthotics (*comfort, balance) at a later date. So many decisions to make! So little time! 🙂 –Ray
