I wonder how would those compare to minimalist running shoes.

Me too. Can be bought cheaply, and don't wear out quickly when used for walking about in. I use vivo barefoot myself but there are many from other manufacturers.

I only wear jeans or other long pants. I haven't worn shorts since Summer of 03.

Turns out that Red Wings AREN'T tough as nails. We got this recall notice at my work. Better check yours out.

In terms of the best feel, it'd have to be my Vibram Five Fingers. But since they look so rediculous, I don't wear them often. If I'm going somewhere, I usually wear my old sailing shoes. H/H Leather Latitude 90's I believe

I've had these since 2006, right around the time I became a fan of Initial D

Man, I want some Onitsuka Tigers, where to get them for decent price in GTA?

I got a pair of Adidas Porsche Design (older version) I like them but dirty now, and Lacoste (similar to below). Definitely feels a lot better with sneaker type shoes.

Good thing mine aren't steel toed. So far, my pair is outlasting all the others I've owned, but thanks for the heads up.

Puma speedcats or futurecats are the best. Adidas porche design are a close second.
