Steven Hiking Waterfalls in Hawaii in Five Finger KSOs

By Justin Owings on Sep 21, 2009 | In User Stories | Leave a comment »

As I sit in my gloomy* office listening to the rain, a sound I normally love but am beginning to tire of, in what is shaping up to be the Great Atlanta Flood of 2009 ("GAF2K9," for short), I'm find myself imagining how beautiful it must be in Hawaii.

It seems that Steven, photoed above in his grey/palm five finger KSOs, recently honeymooned in Hawaii. Here's what he had to say about his "birthday shoes shots:"

Hi Birthdayshoes.com,

My is Steven. Here are some photos of me on my honeymoon in Hawaii. This is from a hike through the rainforest and different waterfalls. These are my KSO ... They worked out great. Really well going from wet to dry. Plus gripped really well.

Thanks
Steven

Looks like you had a good time, Steven! Thanks for sharing and congratulations on your recent marriage!

* Been taking a bit of extra Vitamin D3 (about 10,000 iu/day) as I can feel the lack of sunlight (and thereby D3 production) starting to take it's toll on my immune system.

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. If you want to catch up with what I'm doing outside of the site here, follow me on twitter @bdayshoes or @justinno or check out my personal site JustinOwings.com.

Per FTC regulation, it should be assumed that products reviewed on BirthdayShoes were provided to the blogger(s) for free or at discounted cost. Though this is certainly not always the case, we'd rather be in compliance with FTC rules & regulations governing bloggers and product reviews under the assumed "most biased" letter of the law. That said, if it's not immediately obvious, this site is a fan site for minimalist footwear such as Vibram Five Fingers, which is to say that there is a stated bias in favor of these products. Despite our stated bias, between the hundreds of user-submitted stories, the thousands of forum posts (both positive and negative, warts and all!), and the in-depth resources and guides, we do our best to provide in depth information on all products reviewed. In the end, though we strive to be a helpful resource and believe in integrity and honesty, we expect you to do your part — reading the research and making educated decisions (Read: take responsibility for your actions!). We have also passed on reviewing products (not VFFs per se) that were provided to us for free but did not "cut the mustard." If you have any questions about this disclaimer, please contact us!
