Vibram FiveFingers Men's Classic Barefoot Shoes & Toesock Bundle

So, I'm a toe shoe enthusiast, much to the irritation and entertainment of many around me. I was reticent to purchase these since the last two pairs of Vibram brands products I bought on Amazon were Chinese fakes, and they only refunded one of them.Thus far, these seem to be legit, the iniji socks are comfortable (and given the price of iniji products they're a deal being thrown in), I like the slipper design of these, and you can feel your muscles wear differently as you walk in them.For the important stuff, I wear an 11.5, ordering a 46 (I think, whatever the guide says is equivalent) was perfect. There is exactly enough room to wear them without socks and have a little slipper mobility, or with socks and have them be snug. These are true barefoot shoes, like most vibrams, there is no arch or heel support, if you need that, use compression tape.Be aware if you not walk around barefoot much, or are used to exercising with standard shoes on, there will be some discomfort when switching to these. If you're overweight, be careful wearing barefoot shoes as they have no padding or support and you'll feel the full brunt of the world trying to support you.

Excluding raining days and if you can tolerate cold temperatures well (extreme cold is another issue), put in your favorite marks this kind-of-shoes (but not shoes-as-usual) and live your life very happy.Some things to consider:-If you are not minimalist-adapted and you wear this product one entire day, you will arrive at home extenuated. Please analyze in an introspective way if you would allow this scenario to happen in a day-to-day basis. If not, is not a reason of be ashamed. Only to train if you want to archive a non-hurting or painly foot health. In my opinion it can be locked with Nike "look at this heel it seems the Everest" shoes. Minimalist / 0-drop is not a hierarchy or something like that standing to the top and looking at the above the <funny mortals> with Asics and so on. There is no practical reason of wearing something "evolution-based" or another trendy brand if you suffer all along-In the "adjustable" part of the back of the shoes there is a kind of cordon with an expandable measure. Can bother sometimes (let's say in a step out of hundred done) if you step it on but for me no big problems-If you stay stand / sit and immovable during long time (more than 1 hour in a row) there is a great chance that the top-part of your feet "feels" compressed. For an administration job with no organic-dynamics associated (e.g. walk) I do not recommend classic 5fingers barefoot. Well I do not recommend this kind of work-torture but reality is not perfectIf you are not adapted, train. Starting today (not walking barefoot but hiring physiotherapist evidence-based and updated) is my free advice. If you don't tolerate any amount of cold, my recommendation is the same (train). If you have boring and static (in terms of movement) job, get some Skin in the Game (Nassim Nicholas Taleb's last book, but will be good to start with his tetralogy 'Incerto').Till another review, see you space cowboy [cool song with badass saxophone in play].

Vibram FiveFingers running shoes have been my favorites for several years now. I love the feeling I get running on grass, dirt, concrete, or any other surface. They are exceptionally good running shoes and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants the feel of the earth beneath them when they run.

I am happy with my toe shoes. One pinky toe must be longer than most peoples-it is a tight fit.I agree- you can’t expect to wear them for walking in until your feet have adjusted.Also glad for five finger toe socks!

It is much flimsier than previous Vibram shoes I had purchased.The top edge of the help cup dug into the skin harshly; even an undersize shoe should not ...; even an undersize shoe should exert pressure rather uniformly over the help cup surface and into the toe wells.I was surprised that I had to bear the cost of returning the product, even though the total order (two different pairs of shoes) was large.

I have many pairs for various activities. These are for the beach! Vibram is one of the best for most every kind of activity you can think of!

very good product

Excellent
