Vibram FiveFingers Women’s Trek Shoe Review

[i0love0u]

Regarding the fit of the Trek,womens reebok shoes, they fit much looser than other VFF products,reebok easytone price, which allows them to work really well with socks. There are absolutely no tight spots anywhere around my feet. That being said,reebok and shoes, I have experienced hotspots on the bottoms of my feet,reebok zigtech shoes green and black, specifically the bottoms of my big toes,1991 d brown reebok shoes, because the shoes do move around a bit while running on rugged terrain and the friction of repetitive slipping inside the big toe pockets eventually leads to a blister. This is probably a question of my toes being too small for the big toe pockets and would probably not affect everyone. The VFF design is made in such a way as to accommodate as many foot shapes as possible and this is one aspect of my feet not being ‘average’ in this dimension. Despite the hotspots,reebok walking shoes, I still love the comfort of these shoes. I appreciate the extra room because of the activities that I do in these shoes, specifically a lot of trail running, when my feet tend to swell after long distances. These shoes really are ideal and extremely comfortable on rocky terrain, which very few minimalist shoes can claim.
Regarding the feel of the Trek against my skin,reebok classic shoes reebok walking shoes reebok tennis shoes, the leather footbed and sock liner inside the upper feel soft and practically seam-free. Although my hands can feel seams on the inside of the upper,reebok shoes stores, specifically within the toe pockets,skechers shape ups running, my feet definitely do not.

Weight
Each size W39 Trek weighs just under 5 ounces,reebok tennis shoes hit bg, or 140 grams. Although this is the heaviest of the VFFs that I own, they are far from heavy as a minimalist shoe. Even after relatively long runs,reebok premium shoes hit bg, I do not feel the weight of these shoes on my feet.
Flex / Sole
The sole is comprised of a 4 mm EVA midsole,1991 d brown reebok shoes, which offers plating protection from stone bruising,reebok zig zag running shoes review, and a 4 mm Vibram performance rubber outsole with considerable lugs (for a minimalist shoe) to improve traction on rugged terrain. Although it is not as flexible as the KSO and other VFF models’ soles,reebok zig energy mens shoes, it is still quite flexible when bent in any direction. The total 8 mm sole is the thickest sole I’ve tried on a minimalist shoe but considering the rocky terrain that I’ve run on with them,reebok zigteck shoes, I do not have a problem with the thickness in the least. I have experienced stone bruising while running on trails in my KSOs and after running on the same trails and gravel roads in the Treks, I have never experienced a similar problem. The 4 mm midsole definitely does its job protecting the foot arch from stone bruising.
I must admit that the first time I tried the Treks on,reebok pump shoes hit bg, I did feel noticeably higher off the ground than in any other of my minimalist shoes. However, his was on concrete,skechers shape ups fitness group, once I stepped onto a trail,reebok zig tech basketball shoes, this feeling disappeared.
