Has anyone walked the Camino in Lems or any other barefoot shoe?
Your thoughts?

I haven’t, nor would I. I kind of like my feet.
That style of shoe is not designed, or intended, for long distance, day on day, hiking with a load.

I have not - but I have hiked long distance trails with people who have worn barefoot shoes and they would not use anything else! I also walked for a while during my first camino with someone actually walking barefoot... People do what people do! If you are used to barefoot shoes, you would be fine!
