Actually that should be "one of you"...but that doesn't make any sense.  Tongue

Bought my first pair of VFFs today!! I've joined the club/cult! Got a pair of KSOs which I'm going to try out with a nice walk this evening.

Well I'm progressing nicely with my new KSOs. First day I wore them all day around the house no problems (went out shopping and got an odd look from a kid in the supermarket Smiley ). Yesterday I wore them all day while I was out looking around an art gallery. Was on my feet all day and by the time I took them off my feet hurt like hell! But my feet felt fine pretty much right after I took them off and gave my feet a bit of a massage. Today I wore them all day again (including on my flight home Cheesy ) but my feet felt fine! I think I either broke in the KSOs or broke in my feet Smiley They feel like wearing tight socks now. Plus they're MUCH easier to get on Smiley

Running Tim, I just had to congratulate you on the film reference in the thread title. 

Oh yeah, and on the shoes as well. Smiley

A few sprays of rubbing alcohol from a spray bottle (like for plants) after each run and you'll never have a problem.  Smiley  Congrats on the KSOs Tim.  Still probably my favorite model.

Thanks guys. I'm finding them really comfy now. And I've already washed them twice. First time was just with soap and water. The next time I read the "VFFs are Funky" thread and followed someone's suggestion of using anti-bacterial hand wash and they smell good as new Cheesy

I'm hoping that wearing them around the place will straighten my toes up a bit. They're a bit mashed together from years of wearing shoes Smiley
