Vibram Five Finger…eh…shoes?

When I first saw a pair of the Vibram Five Fingers it immediately took me back to those five toed socks that were all the rage back in the, uh… 70′s, I think. They were wild seeing and nothing else but quite cool.

Until I tried them on and discovered I had a bit of “obstacles in the middle of the toes” phobia. Sort of like a flip flop or thong piece in the middle of all of my toes. I just couldn’t quite hang with that feeling.

And now we have a shoe (?) that provides the same type of toe individuality for those outdoor barefoot enthusiasts from the beginning fitness jogger, to the beach runner, to the adventurous, let it all hang out, rock climber.

So what do these Five Fingers do?

Simply put, they protect the bottoms of our feet all the while allowing the wearer a more natural feel with the remarkable outside they are coming in taste with. From hard surfaces to softer ones the Five Fingers can preclude blisters, puncture wounds, cuts, and scrapes while allowing you the barefoot leisure that comes with not wearing any shoes.

Any many citizen love them. What are the most tasteless reasons citizen use them? To start with:

Many barefoot enthusiasts call this footwear, “the barefoot alternative”. You could also use the term “the upholstery alternative” in reference to the many types of running shoes with abundant cushioning built into them.
They help force the musculature of the feet and lower leg without having to dig foreign objects out of the bottoms of their feet while activity.
They help to “re-align” running mechanics (foot, ankle, knee, hip, shoulder, and head) that have been forced to compensate in an un-natural or alternating alignment as a succeed of years of wearing “unnatural” running shoes. This claim nothing else but has its Pros and Cons.
They sustain with alleviating unnecessary stresses place on lower leg joints and muscles as a succeed of required forefoot charge with barefoot running instead of the heel charge that many running shoes emphasize.
Many Five finger advocates naturally like the feel of wearing them. The personel toe wedgie doesn’t adversely work on them like the above aforementioned experience.

Before wearing the Five Fingers it’s foremost to note any former body alignment issues or lower extremity injuries that may come to be problematic from running barefoot. taste your doctor prior to exercising in them if you have any concerns about your body’s quality to stand up to the barefoot practice demands. And there are a few demands running shoes can buffer that barefoot running cannot. Let your doctor help you out.

And how much are these fancy barefoot shoes going to cost? Great question. Ok here’s a good one, “It depends on where you shop!” From my perspective if you shop nearby a tiny bit you can find a pair closer to .00 than you can for 0.00. Be a wise shopper.

So if you have the urge to start exercising and running in a pair of Vibram Five Fingers I strongly encourage a conservative approach in the beginning. The good your feet and lower extremities adjust to the new demands and bio-mechanical adjustments the more aggressive you can become.

Train smart.
