Chose standard shipping and it is still essentially 1 day shipping.

I'm impressed.

Bought a pair of under armour shoes to work out in probably 6 months ago and they have been good for lifting, running, any type of physical activity.

I want to get me a pair of those comfortable looking moccasin things to wear around the house. Have been looking at Finish Line/Foot Locker whenever im out for another pair of casual shoes too because my jordans are starting to fall apart but havent found anything I like. any suggestions?

Wanted an extra pair so I picked up these bad boys (Skeletoes) this afternoon. Got them for $50 and they are very comfortable. Only difference, IMO, between these and the Vibrams is that the "pinkie" and "ring" toe are merged versus separated...
