    What do you wear when not running?

    I wear a lot of really soft, I wear a lot of really soft, flat-soled leather flats. I always get mine from Aldo or Steve Madden - they're the only companies that make them out of that nice and soft leather that doesn't cut into your feet. They also have a wide toebox, which is good for me...

    Skeptical of returning to Vibrams.
