How the hell are people allowed to misrepresent themselves in a study? I'm not sure, but Xero shoes are, wait for it, SHOES not barefoot. Nevermind the fact I don't see anywhere on here where they altered the order that the one singular person wore the shoes. As one runs longer, the more tired they may get and the higher their heartrate may go. A 5 minute break is not much if the subject is already tired. Also, it's only one subject and we have no idea if the person is used to running in shoes or in sandals or barefoot. This is a quack experiment and I would not trust it at all. They have too many variables loose which could affect the outcome of their experiment.

Good Lord... Possibly the worst one yet.

And, we call them 'shodshoes' now?

This is what Steven (Xero Shoes founder) had to say about this study: LOL... it was a meaningless study since the guy had no barefoot experience.

And let's assume even less Huarache experience, as opposed to lots of shodshoe experience... Really stupid
