Hail, yes! Timothy has Black KSO fivefingers.

What the hail? Timothy stands atop some large-sized hail after a freak hail storm in New Jersey.

Timothy wanted to see what would happen when he tried to wear his flip-flops with his KSOs. What happened was he gave his girlfriend a good laugh! On a separate note: who knew Crocs made flip-flops?

Timothy sent in the above two photos of his black KSO fivefingers:

Black KSO's standing on hail after a freak hail storm in Pittstown, New Jersey, and I wanted to wear my KSOs and Sandals.

I asked Timothy about what he was using his KSOs for as well as what he thought of the the flip-flop KSO experience (and did he actually wear them like that?). Here's what he added:

I wear sandals pretty much 24/7 since I hate shoes, and living in south Florida makes that easy to get away with. I was ecstatic to find an alternative to my beloved sandals. Sadly they are not very comfortable if you try and wear both, but it did provide the girlfriend with a good laugh. I wear my VFF mainly for running now, and on the occasional chilly days. They also came in handy while in new jersey where the weather was colder then I liked and sandals were not a very warm option. I love my VFF KSO's.

Thanks for testing out your KSOs with sandals — I'm pretty sure you're not the only one who wondered how or if that would work!
