    I've been wearing my Xero Hanas to work (FedEx) for about 2 1/2 to 3 months now. My feet hurt in the beginning since I'm walking on concrete floors and handling ICs most of the day. Thankfully they have gotten stronger and I don't have pain anymore. Unless I drop a box on my foot. :)

    I have 8 pairs of these and exactly where you pointed to them rubbing is exactly where every single pair I have owned has got a hole after a few months. I LOVE them but I´m done with them. Too costly to keep buying only for them to all have the same issue.

    I tried these back when they were at their height like a decade ago, and found that, like a lot of shoes, they just weren't designed for my foot shape. In order to get a pair that would fit the front of my feet I had to go up to a size where there was maybe an inch of extra shoe at the back of my foot behind my heel.

      Ya, that’s a hard thing for these toe shoe brands to account for. My brother is having a hard time with some of them. I’m lucky I guess 😂 my foot shape fits them relatively well 🤷🏻‍♂️

      It's a perpetual problem with me, I try a lot of shoes and they will be both too tight in the toes and very loose in the heel.

    This was a good video review of your 5 finger shoes man. I am looking into getting me this pair. I have so many pair of them going all the way back to when the KSO & the Classics first came out. I do wear my 5 finger shoes to work to as well as flip-flops 🩴. I don't own a pair of shoes or socks at all. I am 95% of the time barefooted 👣 but when I do have to wear something it's Either 5 finger shoes or flip flop 🩴. I am surprised that Fedex let you wear them there & i think that is so cool man that you wear them there. I think it's a good work out on your feet 🦶 & toes man. Question do you know what are the other toes shoes are? I would like to check them out & get a pair of these too cuz i like the way they look on your feet 🦶 too. Good video buddy thanks you for sharing this video buddy.

    Have 2 local contractors out of the nearest FedEx center that are offering 200/day w/ no benefits & "100-150 parcels up to 200 at holidays" or 900-1020 per week w/ benefits "~120 stops per day", both include poss of bonuses according to the postings, both 5 day work weeks (Mon-Fri or Tue-Sat). Either one of those jump out as a "better" offer than the other? I know there's a million other variables at play I could type here plus all the other unknowns (like how good are the contractors, etc.), but just comparing those raw numbers above, any opinion on which sounds "better?"

      I have a couple different brands of toe socks I have been using. That’s another video that we are going to do on the other channel with my brother. But the ones I like best are from a company called creepers. And then the other ones that I really like are actually from Vibram.
