There is an interesting video on Japaensegeta.com of walking and standing in the Ippon ba. I am sure I could walk in them, but knowing my periodic gracefulness I would probably get so comfortable I would forget their limitations and walk to fast or take to long a stride and end up on the floor or with an ankle damaged (again).

I love my standard ones, but Amercians don't seem to care for the noise they make, so I am considering getting a few pair of komachi geta with the synthetic sole plates. I know they are designed for bette traction, but I am thinking they will muffle my steps a little bit.

Anyone know of a source for tabi socks that go up over the calf like knee-highs?
