Insane "shoes"


What are these?

So I came across these "shoes" and I thought they looked interesting, apparently they are the "shoes" of the future, they are called "fivefingers running shoes". I guess they improve your running ability, add less to injury and our feet are designed to adjust your stride, distribute your weight, and minimize the impact on your joints—on the fly. Unfortunately, when you encase them in modern running shoes, your feet lose contact with the ground. They don’t adjust. They aren’t free to do what they were made to do. So in essence, when we run in these expensive modern shoes they alter what our feet were somewhat designed to do.... isn't God amazing, think about this... we marvel at all the inventions that we have for footwear, but in all reality it's just what God gave us that works perfect. Now my question to everybody is, if these things work better, won't it give our feet soars and hurt more if there is not much padding? or does our feet compensate for the wear and tear over time? and I wonder what Shaq would look like if he wore these on a basketball court.... what is your opinion?
