Welcome Barefoot running shoe: VibramFingers

One of the most innovative and “best inventions” to come in years, the Vibram Five Fingers Barefoot Shoe was developed with comfort, balance and athletics in mind. The shoes gives you the capability to be in motion in a more natural, flexible and FUN way.
The KSO, named for its new feature is designed simply to “Keep Stuff Out”. The stretch mesh added to the top of the shoes prevents gravel, rocks and other substances from entering your shoe and potentially irritating or injuring your foot. The hoop and loop closure mechanism secures your foot and provides you with a flexible fit.

In 2007 the Vibram FiveFingers (VFF) shoe was selected as one of Time Magazine’s Best Inventions of 2007. Why? Vibram FiveFingers shoes give you all the health benefits of running or walking barefoot without the actual physical risks of going barefoot in a modern environment.Wearing Vibram Fivefingers allows your feet to move naturally which strengthens your feet and lower body and prevent injuries.

 Dr. William Rossi in a 1999 article in Podiatry Management said it best with regards to going barefoot :
It took 4 million years to develop our unique human foot and our consequent distinctive form of walk, a remarkable feat of bioengineering. Yet, in only a few thousand years, and with one carelessly designed instrument, our shoes, we have warped the pure anatomical form of human walk, obstructing its engineering efficiency, afflicting it with strains and stresses and denying it its natural grace of form and ease of movement head to foot.
