Golden Toe note
Why it earned a Golden Toe note
I would offer it in more colors. The best thing about them are that I am almost barefoot all day! Its great to be that in touch with my surroundings. I love the different surfaces that I walk over because I can "feel" the grass, the gravel, the concrete, all of it.
