fivefingers barefoot shoes

i'm not sure if these shoe things are cool or lame, but i certainly would like to try a pair. the soles are made of vibram, the same stuff my chaco hiking sandals are made from [karma's favorite! heh]. those are super comfortable so i wonder if these bizarre looking foot-glove things would be too. although i could imagine it being a bit painful running on hard concrete, or getting beat up on the playground for looking like an idiot. but still :]
