Please Help Me Get Rid of these FiveFingers

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

I posted before and had a lot of luck getting rid of a lot of my stuff but I've still got a  tooooon of FiveFingers left. I'm moving tomorrow so I'd like these all to be out of here tonight. (Although I'll possibly be around for pick-ups Thursday. At a different address.) If you're around and have always wanted to try these out: perfect opportunity! They retail for $75-$140 but the model of your choice is yours for $30. These are new, some have boxes, some don't. Models and address info follow 
All gone. Thank you!

OHHH!!! I wear a size 42 womens!!!!
I just connot get them tonight. Is there any way I could get them tomorrow???

OMG I LOVE Fivefingers...I have 3 pair already!!!

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

I moving tomorrow right after work (6:30ish to whenever I'm done) so things will be chaotic but you can swing by and pick them up. Which model did you want?

[talonvaki.livejournal.com]

Damn...I'm getting off work early, but I have to be someplace at 6. Crap. I was thinking tomorrow afternoon (not remembering that not everyone has a half day tomorrow...duh)
I'd have taken them both...but ARRGH.

I have to go offline now, but I'll take them both if there's a way to arrange something...

I think you can text me through LJ...

I'm tentatively interested in the women's 38 sprint. Would trying them on be acceptable?

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! I might even have some socks around here you can use.

[kelkyag]

I have toe socks! My fondness for them is one of the reasons I'd like to try out the shoes. Would turning up at ~8:45 work?

[squirrelitude]

I don't think people usually wear them with socks. I guess it would mean longer time between washes, but is it even physically possible? Might be kind of cramped.

Either way, you *definitely* need to try on the exact size and model you are going to get.

[kelkyag]

The socks in question have toes, like gloves instead of mittens, and are fairly thin. The shoes in question fit over the socks; I am currently trying to decide if I like the fit better with or without. I would want the socks if it were chilly out.

[squirrelitude]

Ah, I was aware of toe socks, but I hadn't seen any that looked thin enough. I suppose those are available now. :-)

I have silk toe socks that fit quite snugly over my tootsies, and my fivefingers fit over them comfortably. I can tell there is a slight difference in fit, in that my pinkie toe (which is most sensitive to any separation) starts to ache a little after a few hours in them with socks, but it is otherwise comfortable, and definitely warmer in the cooler weather.

I'll take the Men's 42 if they aren't already spoken for!
I only just got home from vacation tonight, but I can come by tomorrow 6ish if that's okay.

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

They're still available! Closer to 6:30 or 7 would work better tomorrow. I'll be in the middle of moving out but I can take a break to give you the shoes.

[nonnihil.livejournal.com]

6:30ish it is then! Thanks!

[squirrelitude]

How did you end up with all of those?

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

I work for Vibram. They chuck free pairs at us. This is just what a fraction of what piled up under my desk over the course of a year.

[talonvaki.livejournal.com]

I am so very jealous of that!! I just discovered Five Fingers and I am so very addicted...

[catling42.livejournal.com]

oh man. I am jealous, too! I wear mine to work (as a massage therapist) and LOOOOOOVE them. I'd love to have more for daily wear.

[pklemica]

Boyfriend is a Vibram men's 41! May I claim there to gift to him? I can come pay & get them Wednesday or Thursday evening.

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

The 41s are still available! You can come by tomorrow 6:30-8 during the movie or just come by my friend's place on Thursday evening.

[pklemica]

Ok, I am leaving work now - should be able to make it to Powder House Blvd. by 7 tonight or so. Will call your cell as I get off the T.

(if for some reason you are unavailable when I call don't fret too much over it, as it's a nice night and it's not too far a walk from Davis to my apartment anyhow)

Good luck with your move!

[abgator12.livejournal.com]

If the women's 38 is still available, I'd love to try them on and if they fit, I'd take 'em tomorrow after work!

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately I just gave away the last of the 38s. Thank you, though!

[pvfirenice.livejournal.com]

On the off chance that the women's 42's are still free I would love the chance to try them on (and I will likely take at least one of them). I haven't tried either of those particular models before.

Relatedly, since you work for Vibram can you pass the word on that they need to manufacture a women's **43**. The men's shoes are simply too wide and my monthly emails seem to not be making an impact. :P

[reprospering.livejournal.com]

The 42s are both spoken for as of today, but thank you!

And also, as a lady who only just barely fits into a size 42 (and even then only in some models): I agree! I've been fighting that fight since I started working there.

[hakamadare.livejournal.com]

i’d also like the men’s 42s, if you have any left.

[vibrantabyss.livejournal.com]

If either the 41 or 42 men's become available, I would like them. I will call around 6:45 to check status, I guess.

[enveri.livejournal.com]

Um, I need to check and see what size I wear, but I might be interested.

Edit: Nevermind! I see that both sizes of women's are claimed. :D
