Things to do in VFFs
What can you do in Vibram fivefingers? You name it.
Last updated 8/21/09
- In to running? Go run a 5 mile race, a 5K, a half-marathon (in New York or Chicago), marathon, triathlon, or ultramarathon. Or just sprint! And yeah, you can POSE in VFFs, too.
- Want to take things slower? Go for a walk.
- Discover your city through the lens of your feet.
- Maybe you're tired of the ground, so go skydiving or hang gliding in your VFFs!
- Or you can get vertical and climb a waterfall, a random rock wall, street light, or tree.
- If you prefer the watery depths, VFFs work with scuba fins, too! Or just go rafting (FiveFinger Flows a plus, but KSOs work fine!).
- Or perhaps you prefer fishing? What about kayaking?
- And then there's hiking, which is a great way to get grounded (And many, many VFFers are enjoying the sensations of being almost barefoot in mother nature!).
- You can even go to work with KSOs modded for "dress mode!"
- How about wearing KSOs on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart?
- Need a break from the grind? Go explore Grenada, vacay in Hawaii, or relax in Jamaica. Or perhaps you'd rather play shuffleboard on a cruise or go camping in France.
- If you're flying anywhere, sometimes you can even get through airport security without having to take off your fivefingers.
- Your "dogs killing you?" Then you must not have VFFs! Dogs give two paws up for fivefingers.
- Think fivefingers are funny? Then try improv in them!
- Watch some fireworks, grill out, and chill out on Independence Day.
- Go to a baseball game at Fenway Park or play a game of kickball.
- Go long-boarding.
- Want to lift heavy things? Be a "hard living comrade" and swing a kettlebell! Or try kettlebell certs and boot camps in them!
- You can march in a parade while playing the fife or, if you prefer, grab a trident and paint yourself blue.
- Not only do fivefingers work for putt-putt (or you might know it as "mini golf"); they also do fine for golfing.
- You can even impress your girlfriend by getting her a pair of VFFs!
- If that's not enough, you can even get married.
As you can see, it's really not "What can I do in my Vibram fivefingers?" It's "What can't I do in my VFFs?"
Am I missing something you're doing in your VFFs? Tell me about it!
