# Hoffman 1905 - The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery

This is barefoot at its best.

No, it's not a misprint, this article was published in 1905, way before you started rocking Vibrams and Nike Frees .

This is a MUST read for anyone considering barefoot training, but even better for those that are opposed to it.

Enjoy.
