You don't have to bend over backwards to find the perfect sporty gift — unless that's your style. We've got the right stuff to play faster, harder and better, and longer.
TV? Who needs one. Fashion? Just made to get dirty. If you're gifting to a guy or gal who can't be bothered to stay inside, the perfect present can be tough to find. But you don't have to bend over backwards — unless that's your style — we've got the right stuff to play faster, harder and better, and longer. These fitted-feet shoes might look odd to the untrained eye, but the barefoot running craze is sweeping the nation, with fans touting the natural design keeps the body and joints in line as you run, eliminating backaches and shin splints. Whether it's a quick walk with the dog or a jog around the neighborhood, FiveFingers owners are believers. Trust us, this gift ups your cool ante.
