I've had a pair of the KSO's in black for 5 months now, I haven't worn any other shoes in that time. I'm not kidding guys, once you get used to wearing them (your feet and calves will hurt badly for a bit) normal shoes feel so strange and constrictive. I go bushwalking and trail running with my girlfriend, you feel EVERY rock, stick, gumnut or small insect you run over, but the feeling is great! When bushwalking you can dig your toes in, grip over logs with toes and all kinds of stuff you cant do in boots. When on a bike you can grip the pedals with your toes, same thing on staircases.
I ride about 10km every day on my bike in them, and walk a further 5km or so around uni and work, plus trail running on the weekends. They have actually helped my knees, I used to get all kinds of running injuries, now 5-10km trails are a breeze!
I'm considering getting a pair of KSO treks, for hunting/camping purposes, as with the thin mesh on top of the normal KSO you are very vulnerable to scratches from sticks/rocks.
You do get an awful lot of weird looks though... But I'm used to that!
Cheers,
Alex
