Vibram Shoes

[cwdlaw223]

Anyone ever give them a shot on the golf course? I suspect one could really get some added leverage/ground resistence with an almost barefoot shoe.

Just a thought.

Erik did a great post over on his forum about TRUE shoes and barefoot. It is really good.

I'll try about anything if I think there's a chance of it being beneficial.

I will say this, if you have ever tried yoga or some similar forms of stretching, you will probably be stunned as to how tight your calf and feet muscles and joints are.

I do agree with the points that Erik made in his review. I'm just curious as to how well these shoes keep me planted on the ground. I have some nails for my golf shoes at home and still wear them from time-to-time. They feel much better than any softspike I can wear when swinging the club.

Thanks guys.

I might get a pair of the True Linkswear shoes.

I wouldn't be surprised if Vibram comes out with a golf shoe.

Yes, I have the exact same concern. I am very worried about slipping. I have recently bought a pair of the TRUE shoes because I started running in barefoot shoes a few months ago and love them. I have always felt though that softspikes are not as good at gripping the ground.
