Yeah I do. I bought a pair of KSOs last year and they are my shoes of choice when I have to wear them.
I do all my running barefoot now though

Very nice article Gene!
FYI the Qixing Tanglang master you learned from in Yantai was Yu Tianlu, brother of Yu Tiancheng and disciple of Lin Jingshan (who was also the master of Yu Hai, before he created his sports wushu version of Tanglang). Yu Tianlu passed away in 2013. I have some of footage of you guys learning Beng Bu that day, sent to me by Eric. Great to see this pic. Eric was definitely a great guy. As you indicated in the article, he was a mantis nut through and through. Probably the most obsessive and thorough researcher of his day. Very open and generous too. We exchanged lot of material over the years. May he RIP.
Cheers,
BT
