I picked up mine at REI (I went with the black with the urban camo sole) and have been wearing them around the house to test them for comfort before I go outside and make them non-returnable. So far, they feel far less weird than I anticipated. most of my toes don't even come close to the end of their "finger" but that doesn't seem to be an issue so far. I can say that you feel what you are walking on through the sole, which is an interesting sensation. It is like you are walking around in dress socks (from a sensitivity standpoint). That's the best way I can describe it.
I will try them out over the next few days as I begin my trail work. I already know I will have to adjust how I walk in them, just from walking around the house. So, it should be interesting. Worst case is I have a pair of really nice water shoes, but I think they will be okay.
One thing I should point out... They look really dorky :-)
Stay tuned.
