Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Do I need to wear socks (obviously five toed variety) with vibram five fingers footwear?

No, not necessarily, but you can. They're pretty comfortable, and shouldn't really rub much if at all.

Only if you don't want your expensive footwear to become stinky in no time at all.

They go through the machine lovely. As does other expensive footwear, like Inov-8. ;-)

Eventually even the washing machine doesn't remove the smell. Ask my blueshoesblueshoes how I know ;)

If I wore VFFs, which I don't, I wouldn't want to be faffing around with toe socks and would probably not bother.

There's really no need, unless you suffer from cold extremeties. I used my fake VFFs in snow, rain, ice. They're so glove-like that they don't really rub, this is Bikilas I'm talking about.

Got my buffs today. Very odd to get on! Think I've got webbed feet!or 6 toes! Very comfy without socks but will try them with socks for the smell and to ensure my ugly toe nails don't rip the fabric, thanks for all the helpful comments
