Not a runner, but I’ve got a pair in basic black. They’re super comfy and fun, but they definitely change the way you walk. Also toe socks are annoyingly expensive. (Although the options seem to have improved from the $11-a-pair when I bought mine.)
It’s kind of sad how the “that looks UNUSUAL and therefore I DESPISE IT” clique always crawls out of the woodwork for stuff like this. I keep expecting better of the BoingBoing crowd, at least.
