Toe shoes
|Just before the holidays I bought my toes shoes by Vibram. The Vibram FiveFingers ® ™, is a “Glove” for the feet. In this toe shoe each toe finds its own place. This unique construction, it is possible the environment in a whole new way of “Walk”. The special sole protects the feet from injury and allows free movement on all surfaces. The KSO has to the shoe top over a mesh material, which prevents the penetration of foreign bodies largely.
Through the use of a rotating fastener he comes without rubber dam (classic) out, which further increases the comfort. The foot and the toes to move freely and fit perfectly to the ground. I took another addition to Toe Socks, I was not sure, like my toe webs would absorb the.
The sensitivity and flexibility of our feet walking barefoot makes us safer and easier. In this case, all the muscles and joints to work with. The foot is alive, stronger and less prone to injury.
When Moving with FiveFingers many muscles and tendons work which must initially develop again until, because they are not required by the wearing of shoes. The foot is again stable and powerful. Suitable for those things are in- und Outdoor als After-Race Schuh, für Joga, Pilates, for jogging, Hiking, Rock climbing, Sailing, Windsurf, Canyoning, etc on holiday.
The Five Fingers is suitable for many applications and is also becoming more common in the orthopedic shoe range.
What can I say? I have gone so all the way to Zeus's Cave, run, it was a wonderful feeling, als ob man barfuß liefe, but still had a meter-thick calluses on the sole. Der große Zeh wird wieder sehr stark eingebunden und unbewusst wurde er vermehrt eingesetzt, wenn es darum ging, sich bei rutschigen Bodenwurzeln einzuhaken und festzuklammern. Also throughout Catania Valletta and I ran with toes shoes, and have to say, it felt wonderful, one does not just walk across the heel but rolling out more about the bale in the forefoot from. Would really like it our structure within the evolution actually provided.
Certainly not bad for the spine.
My Conclusion: After I slipped back into a normal shoe he felt much closer than before. Either the leather has shrunk, or my foot has become broader. 😉
Excerpt from the manual:
Before wear the Five Fingers for the first time, go barefoot for a few minutes. Your body is so instinctively to barefoot walking a. Pay attention when tightening it, that each toe is in the compartment made for him. Tightening takes a little practice at first – though: after frequent wearing you can feel already how much more skilled and more flexible, the foot and the toes are particularly. Do not trespass on their feet they initially – get used to it slowly to the barefoot with Five Fingers.
I wear the KSO Trek for two years and will not go into other more. Only for the winter, they are not suitable, because they do not hold heat. They are super lightweight and well ventilated, so there is no sweaty like other shoes.
Overall, the Five Fingers are highly recommended, but for winter you need warm shoes.
