Our Vibram Five Fingers have been available in our shop more than one week,but i didn’t know how to introduce them to you till i received this review:

So far I’ve been wearing the Vibram Five Fingers SPRINT model few days.  Here are some general observations:

• They’re comfy!
• Your toes are forced to be slightly separated from one another which, depending on your foot and the flexibility of your toes, can vary from “mild discomfort” to “torturous pain.”  My toes are abnormally tactile so it felt like a very mild stretch.
• You have to get used to walking in them.  Actually, to be more accurate, you have to get used to walking around barefoot.  Thunderous heel-strikes and shuffling your feet are just two of the bad walking habits you’ll be forced to leave behind.
• Walking on soft, natural surfaces like grass, dirt trails and, surprisingly, even gravel is a much nicer experience than walking on concrete…
• …However, after few days of using these as my day shoes, my feet feel quite a bit tougher and the concrete doesn’t bother me anymore.
• They’re sturdier than they appear. I do a lot of walking  and after each outing I’ve checked the soles for signs of wear and tear.  Each time I been pleasantly surprised.  Even on the couple occasions I stepped on a sharp rock . I didn’t notice any cuts or marks on the sole.
• You may not think of your feet as being asymmetrical, but when you’re wearing identical, tight-fitting gloves on each of them you will become much more aware.  My pink toe completely fills out the right root but leaves some noticeable space on the left.
• I’ve only done actual running in these things once and even only on the trails.The good news? There weren’t any lingering “bad” pains the next day.In fact, I could tell that certain muscles in my feet and ankles were getting more burn than they usually do, which is a big selling point on our shop.You have to use a slightly different technique, and for me this made my run considerably slower, but I could see myself getting used to this and running regularly with them without issue.
• Don’t think I could “sneak up” on someone which I tried.  A week in I can avoid the heel-strikes, and I am stepping softly/gingerly/differently than I was before, there’s a noticeably “fwap” when my feet hit the ground.  When I was running, it was quite loud.  In shoes I’m actually a soft-stepper, but it hasn’t translated with my Vibrams yet.  Maybe as my foot strength builds it will happen.
• These things are delightfully funny looking and people will notice.People tend to look at shoes much more than you would think.
