Vibram FiveFingers Barefoot Shoes
Posted by kim on October 7, 2009
I first wrote about Vibram FiveFingers Barefoot Shoes over two and half years ago. Since then they have released both Men’s and Women’s versions and styled them up a bit…
Vibram FiveFingers KSO Barefoot Shoe (Men’s, shown left in Blue/Grey/Camo) $84.95 from RockCreek.com
Vibram FiveFingers KSO Barefoot Shoe (Women’s, shown right in Grey/Fuschia/Grey) $84.95 from RockCreek.com
The Barefoot shoe is based on the age old concept that being barefoot helps your balance, your connection with the earth and energy, and gives you the ability to move in a more natural, healthy way. The KSO is designed to “Keep Stuff Out” with its abrasion resistant stretch polyamide and breathable stretch mesh that wraps your entire forefoot to keep out gravel, grit, mud and other possible irritants.

I still wouldn’t be caught dead wearing them. Just sayin’.

Oh come on — surely you’re curious as to what it’s like to wear fivefingers after having contemplated them for two and a half years.
You don’t know what you’re missing.

Hey Justin! I can’t believe you have an entire website dedicated to the “barefoot shoes” – impressive site. But if you’ve read any of my previous posts, I hate ANYTHING between my toes, including flip-flops, so I just can’t fathom the thought of something between every toe! And I hate being barefoot.

Ha people *love* their VFFs. I’d say “but they don’t bother your toes” but if you don’t like being barefoot and you don’t like flip flops … well you’re beyond my powers of persuasion!:)

Oh no! Kim you are really missing out if you won’t even try the Vibram FiveFingers! I wear my pink VFF sprints aaaaall the time and i absolutely love them! I often people commenting on them and asking me questions! Love it!
Its a great way to experience the joys of going barefoot without getting your feet dirty
justin said,
So you tried these out yet kim???
kim said,
Nope, I haven’t tried the VFF’s out, and I don’t have them penciled in for a date anytime soon.
justin said,
Dang! Well maybe this next summer
If and when you do, I expect you to let me know!!!
