I don't think they were on the right track, lol. Those things always stank.

I think the main part of the barefoot benefit is the neural feedback from being able to feel with your feet. The many many muscles in your foot and legs can make the micro adjustments they cant do when in a shoe.

It's sort of like wearing gloves, sure you can type on a keyboard or write with a pen, but you are going to do a lot better when your fingers can feel directly.
