My Running Wishlist #4: Zem Barefoot Running Shoes
A few more hours before Christmas and I writing one more wishlist. It’s another shoe designed for barefoot running: the Zem performance protection for barefeet. What I like about Zem are the colors and the unique design. This one looks more like a sock. One of their design has a split toe similar to the Vibram Five Fingers but only on the big toe. So it doesn’t look that weird.
I saw this first on the internet by searching about barefoot running products. But during the Barefoot Running Clinic held at ROX last November, one of the speaker Jessica Lee showed me her pair of Zems.
Okay, so it still looks a little bit weird. If you look like a gorilla with the VFFs, this shoe makes you look like a Ninja Turtle.
They have other colors and design. Visit their website at Zemgear.com.

I also want to have a pair of Zem shoes–looks nice & good for the feet. I saw this one while browsing about barefoot shoes. Sadly, I think it’s not available here in the philippines. 🙁
