[Touque]

I bought a pair of the Bikila's last year - really like them. Takes quite a bit of effort to get them on and with my foot shape, the little toes area 'almost' too long for my feet. Takes a while to get used to feeling material between the toes too. They're extremely light.

Don't buy them if you're self-conscious - they do look weird!

There's very little padding in the Bikila model as they're primarily geared towards running. I probably should have bought the Trek or something with a little more padding and aggressive tread.

Yes they do get smelly but you can just throw them in the wash and air-dry. I don't think that's supposed to be a problem with them. Thought about using the toe socks with them as masraum said but I couldn't get everything to fit my foot correctly.

Overall though, as I said, I like them a lot.
