Here is a typical review: I cannot say enough good things about these shoes. I am active, but have never ran in shoes with a minimum to no sole before. I suggest trying a pair on in person before ordering these online. I was worried about the length of my toes being crunched in these like most toe socks, but its NOT the case. They help align your posture, almost train you to stand/walk/run the correct way. I tried running in a minimum sole shoe for a couple of weeks before I bought these, to help the transition and it helped, however I am sure no matter how experienced you are, it will STILL take a beating on your calf and feet muscles. Make sure you buy a pack of moleskin though, the inside of the shoe has some areas where it rubs (mine was in the heels of both shoes), but this should NOT be a deterrent to buy these shoes. They are AWESOME.

Here is a typical review: These are my first pair of Vibrams Fivefingers. I received them from Fusion Apparel. And I am very smitten! Once I ordered them I began doing the foot training exercises that are listed on the Vibrams website. I’m assuming that helped my transition when I wore them today. They are so much more comfortable than my sneakers which started to hurt my feet after I began the exercises. I was a little sad to take them off.
Needless to say I’m already planning on my next pair. I really think they should make a new pair that is insulated for the winter months because I honestly don’t want to think about going back to normal footwear.
