The Perfect Paws

[Fieldy]

I was recently reading the "freepaw" thread and I figured out that I am definitely a freepaw. I dislike shoes and I freepaw whenever possible. But there are some obvious problems with freepawing; stepping on sharp objects, hot surfaces, cold surfaces, and some businesses that require shoes for you to enter. I found a fabulous solution to all of these problems! I promise I am not working for this company or anything, but I found "shoes" that fit on your foot like a foot! The shoes have toes in them!

When I wear these I literally feel like I have paws and I am more connected with my animal self. They feel amazing too! You can feel the ground under your feet, like if you are stepping on rocks you can feel the rocks, if on grass you can feel the grass, etc. They are kind of expensive but if you are anything like me they are definitely worth it!
I promise this is not advertising, I just think it will help out a lot of freepaws like myself.

I'm pretty sure Hayaikawa already mentioned about those somewhere in this thread here:

yup, linked, posted, bought, and supported lol : P

phffft. Who needs paws when you have hooves? Hot, cold, sharp, etc. Who cares? When you're a hoofer, you have no worries about all of that.

Yeah,  but then you have to worry about other hazards like steak sauce and deep fryers.


Has anyone here used Tabi boots?

[Fieldy]

Oh, sorry for reposting something that was already here! 

[Shabbernigdo]

not even if they were the only shoes left on the planet.

lololol same here.

As for the ungulate comment with steak sauce..kinda won't end well in your favour if said ungulate was an angry bull..or a bull elephant. >.>

Haha, I guess I am weird. 

[Scrimno]

Meh, I'd try anything once. But I don't like the feeling of things between my toes, so I'm guessing I won't like those. I don't like those socks with the individual toes for the same reason. But I do like water shoes, which are thin and flexible and kinda look like those. Except for the toes.

Orly? I have doubts as to their ability to resist the deep fryer... >.> Or orbital bombardment for that matter.

Anyways, I remember seeing some guy with shoes like these around campus a few days back.

[Choky]

Oh oh oh! I have some and love them! Ive wanted them ever since they first came out in the classic style,more so when they released the KSOs,but I only actually got a pair a while ago...
When people ask me what theyre like I say "Its like walking in really comfortable house slippers,outside"

Heres a pic of mine

And yes,I do know,I look stupid in that hat -_-U No need to point it out.

[Fieldy]

Awesome! I have those exact ones and they are amazing. I should take a picture of me wearing mine eventually.
And you don't look stupid in that hat! I like it.

[Choky]

Awesome! I have those exact ones and they are amazing.

Well all the cool furs have those ones Hahaha.

I have been told before that they make me look like I have paws,every other time its "Dude! What shoes are you wearing?!?"

 

I should take a picture of me wearing mine eventually.

Yes,you should!

 And I still dont like the hat

[Serra Belvoule]

Haha, those look hilarious! 
I would certainly not enjoy them, but I suppose it's a taste to fit the ones that aren't accommodated to current paws...

[Sky Striker]

I tried them once but was kinda in a hurry and they only had a few. Also I have long toes and the shoes there were too tight. If I found a comfortable pair I may buy one, they are really light and would be good for DDR, but I don't really do anything else that would warrant me buying those. They aren't cheap.

[Ol Rab]

 Maw claws pown.

 They are pointy...

[Rift]

Lol... i didn't know they had stuff like that, i need to pay attention to commercials more lol lol lol... a great invention if u think about it

[furtopia02]

phffft. Who needs paws when you have hooves? Hot, cold, sharp, etc. Who cares? When you're a hoofer, you have no worries about all of that. So go ahead, step on a few toes, you won't feel it and if they do, meh, they shouldn't have been standing so close anyway. I mean you're an Ungulate, other species should yield to you anyway.

I'd give you two thumbs up but it might be too foreign of a hand sign for an ungulate to understand. 



Yeah, those have been mentioned here before. Pretty fun I'm sure but they look pretty goofy hehe.

[SoulFox]

those are amazing!!! i want a pair soo bad now. i want the Komodosport LS because those look so sick to me, and also im very athletic ^w^ on top of i love barefeet i can ware these anywhere and nobody can say anything, except "where did you get those?!"  time to start saving i guess, haha
