We’re just not ready to make the leap into five-toed footwear. You can sit there and tell us the positives, and we’ll keep coming back with the negatives: They look ridiculous. For our lightweight footwear, we’ll turn to the new Nike Free 3.0’s. Launching on January 1, 2013, the new version of the Nike trainers clock in at a measly 9 ounces. It’s not just that they’re like duct taping a couple of feathers to your feet, they also happen to hug the middle of your foot while keeping everything comfortable for some hardcore training. Even if your idea of working out is lifting a heavy beer stein, they just look good too.
