but going from shoes to vff's will not?
what's wrong with minimal shoes? why does the word "barefoot" need to be there?
Isn't that what I said the other day to blacksheep40? Something about it being a perversion that marketing folks came up with to sell more shoes...It sells.
oh wow, i just had a revelation. do you know how we'll know things are really getting better? when they just call them shoes and don't need a special category.
you can pick them up and touch them and figure out what you want in a shoe.

On the other hand, there are shoes, and then there are shoes. It might be useful to distinguish certain varieties.
we already have that. there are shoes, then there are barefoot shoes.
Barefoot's a weird word.
Some people use it to mean wearing shoes but no socks.
Others describe walking in socks but no shoes as being barefoot.
Then there's the minimalist shoe wearing runners calling themselves barefoot,
and of course "barefoot " shoes being used to describe a lightweight flexible model.
There are a lot of people that can't even say the word "barefoot" despite a full mastery of the English language!
They can say shoeless, without shoes, no shoes on, no shoes, etc. but for some reason find the word "barefoot" either too gross or too sexy (depending on the individual) and can never bring themselves to come even close to uttering the word.
Why don't people seem to have this trouble with clothes? "Oh this?! This is my nudist thong, please don't kick me off your beach..."
