Glad to see you're open to barefoot running. Some people in the shoe industry are very anti-barefoot, even though more and more research is pointing towards it being beneficial. Even though I am pretty much a full-time barefoot runner, I don't think it will catch on with the masses. Rather, I think there will be a major movement towards more minimal shoes. It's just a more practical option for the vast majority of the running population. I teach barefoot and minimal shoe running, and there has definitely been an upswing in interest. Anyway, best of luck! -Jason Robillard Nick,
