Derek Relaxing After Class in KSOs

Derek finds a nice spot on campus to relax after class on a first floor grassy terrace.

Derek ("Zeitheld" on the forums) sent in the above photo showing off just how easy it is to enjoy instant shoe-less relaxation via the foot freedom provided by KSO fivefingers — in this case, on a Friday afternoon after class at Temple University:

Here's a pic of me relaxing after class by laying out in a patch of grass in my black KSOs, enjoying one of the last warm days of the year. The grass is actually not on the ground, it is on the first floor. Between the two lecture halls is a raised landing with cement pedestals to sit on, and a large square of grass that is raised off the floor by about 2 feet, encased like a sandbox. A perfect place to just lay down and stare at the sky.

Thanks, Derek!

About the Author — I founded BirthdayShoes.com in April 2009 on realizing just how much I enjoyed having "free feet" - I mostly wanted to use them for weights, sprints, and plyometrics (I'm not much of a runner!). I'm a Googler by day and minimalist footwear aficionado by night; you can find me 'round Atlanta.
