[@markorollo.]

These might be good for me for reasons you probably wont have thought of (no reason why you would) Im a wheelchair user and for one thing i prefer a softer shoe as theyre kinder to my sensitively skinned feet. but the main reason i think they might work for me is to be honest sometimes there are occasions, mostly around my house, where i have to get out of my chair and shuffle about a bit as my current house isnt 100% accessible (been in it since i was 2, im used to it), if i do that with 'normal' shoes on more often than not they come off my feet, i dont think these would. And when having a shuffle about i can risk scraping skin as i did not long ago, i think these would protect against that. glad i saw this lol.

[@renviluan2842]

I don't know why but reading your comment made me imagine a guy in a house using railings on the wall to go around fooling people he can walk. Peace, take care sir.

[@royfr8136]

I’m a triathlete. I use water shoes. Body glove. I just buy an inner sole from Walmart. The body glove water shoe is zero drop. And minimalist. But very cheap. The sole doesn’t last that long. I’d say 4-5 months......I’m not saying this in any way is better than vibramS just live in a place where they are not available in any shop and I don’t want to buy them online. ......well, water shoes have served me well, they are cheap and because they are zero drop I have had no injuries for two years......I kinda feel that all brand name minimalist shoes are grossly overpriced.

[@NTCReviews]

I feel you, Roy; The pricing is No Joke. Thanks for sharing your experience with us and I wish you the best with your upcoming Tri's! -Hg

[@rolfen]

Bought a pair of Vibrams five fingers a week ago, for $170, and they don't even fit well, I don't think that I want them anymore.

[@jimf1964]

There are several cheap options if you're running on flat pavement, but for uneven ground, something more stable is needed. Don't know if these shoes fulfill that, but Walmart water shoes do not.

[@DMX-PAT]

I wore inserts from the time I was a teenager through until just a few years ago, and it took me that long to realize they do nothing and go no-where as afar as health benefits go. They are a useless waste of money and by the time I stopped using them my feet hurt so while wearing them I couldn't even walk my dog around the block. I decided I would never go back to the foot insert place, I had no interest in arguing with them or attempting to get my money back. I stumbled upon vibratos being discounted heavily at a outdoors store and bought a pair. I was able to strengthen my feet to where they no longer hurt while walking and haven't had a problem since. I find the shoe itself you wear is the most important thing, there are good one and bad one's and everything in between. Support is key, especially with regards to the firmness of the material they use for the soles. I wear a pair until they just get blown out and have nothing left and they need to be replaced. These vibrates you've got look fantastic, didn't even know they existed. My favourite is running in them, but it has to be on grass for that added level of softness that can't be found on concrete. Great stuff!!

[@acereport8939]

I got some skate shoes because I liked the way they looked, however, I noticed that they were extremely comfortable and different from other shoes because skaters need to be able to “feel” the ground/deck through their shoes to perform certain tricks. With skate shoes, It feels like I’m walking around in just my socks but I have plenty of grip and they don’t have to look like ballerina slippers.

[@bmx2026]

I've found the exact same thing. A good fitting skate shoe is the way to go.

[@JohnMoseley]

Can you recommend a brand? I thought skaters just wore old school sneakers like Vans.

[@RdCrestdBreegull]

Skate shoes may be comfortable but they don't allow proper foot muscle development/exercise and keep your foot in a more confined space.

[@fabiozwei]

Hello, from 5 years later. What do you think this shoes for those who have flat feet?

[@NTCReviews]

It's tough to say, Fabiozwei. I really liked these shoes but I also do not have flat feet. Everyone is built differently so what works for one person may not work well for the other. The only way to truly know is to give them a try. -Hg

My foot is 27cm long, from heel to big toe what would equal exactly a 42/ 9.5 US, so i would then ideally gor for a 43 in the usual case, should I go for a 44 instead? .5 or 1cm play?

I saw a barefoot guy on the tube (subway) here in London and asked him about it. He said he was doing a week or a month or something barefoot for charity, but had started to like it. We had a nice chat. It's OK to ask as long as you do it in a friendly way.

[@detwins77]

Very useful review and the questions I had you answered them in the comments, thanks!

[@liquidmidnight1]

It's pronounced VEEBRAM, after it's Italian inventor Vitali Bramani. He developed it in 1937, to replace the leather and hobnail soles used by mountaineers. Regards. addendum: Teva isn't pronounced TEEVA. It's TEHVAH. Teva is a Hebrew word for nature.

[@universityofthrifting709]

I sweat a lot, do they slip when you sweat?

[@NTCReviews]

That was one of the only issues that I had. I do sweat a lot and definitely had some slippage during those longer, hotter runs. I began adding the toe socks for the longer runs and that definitely helped with that issue. -Hg

[@EssexCountyPhoto]

Nice video, do I need to order a size smaller for the perfect fit? Cheers!

[@NTCReviews]

Thanks for the feedback; it is appreciated. I generally go with a size bigger but these are one of those "personal" items so everyone will have their individual preferences. If possible, try them on at a location near you, before you buy. If not, most online stores offer free returns. Good luck! -Hg

[@stekusthefishhunter]

I live in the arctic so it's mostly rather cold. Would you say it's possible to wear them with socks (I use merino wool socks 10 months of the year)?

[@NTCReviews]

I would say that you have to look at these shoes as offering "zero" protection against the cold or even wet weather. They would make a good outer layer for traction purposes but you would get little to no protection against the weather elements. I hope that helps. -Hg

[@savannahlexiabadillo5245]

stekusthefishhunter ...look at the different websites that sell this brand, they also sell neoprene insulated boots in different shaft heights by the same brand. I hope that helps!

[@dreimann]

The hiking vibrams I have get fairly cold by comparison to regular hiking shoes/boots even with wool socks. Even moving around a lot, your feet are going to get cold in the snow (unless you're a Wim Hof disciple or something :).

are the sole and heel made of the same rubber? I landed a pair of white on blue and found that the sole is nearly as stiff as a hard plastic, yet the heel was grippy

[@NTCReviews]

Hello Darren, the heel and sole are one piece, made of the same rubber. These soles are definitely flexible as you saw in the video. They are not made from hard plastic. There is definitely some traction and grip on the soles that work quite well on the trail. I hope that helps. -Hg

[@DarrenLeung]

Oh, that's interesting. I actually thought the heel portion was glued down. In any case, it's obvious I bought a counterfeit pair, because the sole on mine was plasticky! So let this be a lesson... don't buy from sogooddeals and any company named Flamemobi ! Thanks!

Glad that I could help, Darren and thanks for the head-up on those sites. Have a great day! -Hg

[@Andrew-ry9be]

I’m honestly thinking of these as my normal shoe I use everyday, and I’m also thinking about them for parkour. Would these be a good choice?

[@TripleDDDD]

Go for the ones with toes, you get more grip amd more side stabilisation. For Parkour, I would prefer something that deals better with the impact.

[@pandamilkshake]

What if you're walking and you step on broken glass or a very sharp rock or or a rusty nail or somethin like that?

would you recomend for boxing? im looking for something as close as possible to batefoot, would your foot slip around in them from pivoting etc?

[@NTCReviews]

Hello Matt, I think they may have a bit too much slippage once you begin to sweat. Look into Sambo Shoes with proper sizing. Even the Vibram five fingers will give you a bit too much friction for the ring. Take a look at these as a basis. rmaxinternational.3dcartstores.com/TACFIT-Shoes_p_263.html -Hg

No, these are designed to pack small and dry quickly when you get them soaked. Hiking is for five fingers model. But if you have weak feet and would want to climb rocks and steep hills you need ankle support so go for Salomon or other trekking shoes.

[@adoboFosho]

Vanessa VanAlstyne hike the vegas strip? 😅

[@Cynthesis21]

+Mrnjaou That is not good advice. If you want to do some class 3 terrain or just steep hiking, you are much better suited with low cut shoes. You need the flexibility. Higher cut hiking shoes are best for longer trips on class 1 terrain. For hiking on rocks, steep terrain, or class 3 terrain go with either approach shoes or low cut hiking shoes that have a contact patch on the toes (flat spot on bottom underneath the toes with no tread for maximum traction on rock).

Hello July, I'm not sure how well they will perform for you as far as dancing goes. I guess it depends on the type of dancing as well as the floor that you are utilizing. As far as shin splints, It depends on the person and the cause of the shin splints... many variables come into play.

[@NTCReviews]

They certainly are built to last. The tread is thin when comparing them to a hiking boot. But as far as minimalist shoes go, this is some of the thickest tread that I have seen. I have a pair of Vibram Bikila's that I used to train for and to run the NYC Marathon in 2011. The tread is much thinner on the Bikila's than the Furo's and I still use them for hiking & running.

How do you feel this shoe compares to the Fivefinger version in terms of foot slippage in high traction movements (steep down hill/suicide sprints)?

Hello Jack, I would definitely take my VFF's over these for those activities. The fit on the VFF'S is more precise so they handle those activities a bit better. I hope that helps. -Hg

Can you wear these in Rain?

I have a couple of pairs and although they are very comfortable to walk in there not great for running. They slide and it may cause blisters on your toes.

[@boodro2122]

I may get some of these. They look great!

[@kingkunta9505]

I think they look pretty cool

I've started a pressure washing business to make a little money on the side, do you think these shoes would be OK with all the water?

[@NTCReviews]

Hello Michael, they may be a bit to much "slippage" when they get soaked. They are fine when exposed to water for a bit but for the long haul, they may not suit your needs. I hope that helps. -Hg

Comment l'obtenir svp

[@Gmoney0436]

Guys if you are looking to purchase these buy them off the wish list app. The official vibram site sells them for about 110. Wish sells it for 20+(depending on which deal you come across) they look exactly the same as the original. They even come in a vibram box and the little bag. I've had them for 3 weeks now and have used them for crossfit. They are still in really good shape only thing is that the bottom rubber is dirty(what do you expect).
