Vibram FiveFingers Bormio Shoes - Ugliest Pair of Shoes...EVER

Vibram FiveFingers Bormio Shoes - Ugliest Pair of Shoes...EVER for $109.93 + free shipping

Jan 18, 2012 2:58 PM

I just threw up in my mouth a little. Why? Because I stumbled upon this pair of shoes from Vibram. Fellow men, we all know that our feet are gnarled, crusty, smelly, yellow, and generally unsightly. So why in the world would someone make a shoe that resembles our mangled flesh nubs that just so happen to take us from place to place? It just doesn't make any sense.

I love my FiveFingers for running, but I don't pretend they are fashionable. These things are so awful they make mine look normal.

What do y'all have against tanned skin feet?

My five fingers leather boots are made from REAL FINGERS!

It puts the lotion on its skin or it gets the hose again...

You should see the cod piece this company makes.

Man, I would hate to wear shoes that are super comfortable, healthier, and over time make my knees and back hurt less. I mean seriously... could you imagine the horror?

I wear these on my annual run with the Tarahumara in the Copper Canyons. They work great!

edit: I guess whoever is downvoting all the "ugly" comments is having feelings of inadequacy?

@j5: You run that race? That's incredible! I just finished Born to Run and it was enough to get motivated to start my training program in Vibrams.

@minion1021: Noooo, I'm a big fat liar, for dramatic effect. :)
But I did read the book and it is very motivational and made me change the way I run recreationally.

@j5: hahaha.... it did the same for me.

Haha, a friend is from Bormio, Italy.

He will be so ticked these ugly shoes are named after his hometown!

BTW, Vibrams ARE comfy good shoes to run in!

what if you have flat feet? can you stick orthotics in there?

@at1003: NOO! I had extremely flat feet before I started wearing Vibrams and going barefoot more. Orthotics are a crutch that actually weaken your foot and arch. Your feet will be sore for a few days but eventually they will be stronger. I have completely eliminated all orthotics and even any arch support from any and all of my shoes.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
