FIRST RUN IN THE Vibram FiveFingers!! Day 36 - 6.8.10

[Hawkproject98]

I am annoyed by normal shoes now. :D

[Diodilion]

day 36, nobody cares where the shoes!

[r2Kd0ugernaut]

@iceyflames7 a buddy I pk with wears the bakillas and he swears by em, I'm goin to get the kso today I'll let ya know how they do.

[JogBird]

the wobbling video is nauseating

[iceyflames7]

So, I was wondering which shoe I should get. I want to feel the ground, I want the shoe to breath, I want it to be light, have good grip, and don't wear out easily for i'll be using them for heavy training for parkour, but I don't know which vibram shoe I should get.

[martinkb10]

[adesa1]

[drummerhero4652]

I'm so glad I found this guy! I also live in Iowa and I just got into long distance running and I love it. I'm ordering some bikila shoes and I can't wait!! The first time I saw these shoes was at an amusement park and now I know what they are :P

[viewer409]

Thanks for the review; I love my VFFs!  PS, you look 110x better than Topher Grace, youza hottie. ;)

[MrHubbaBubba321]

bikila ls is a nice shoe

[Parrotpeople21]

So I just got the new Komodo sports and they fit amazingly but my middle 3 toes don't go all the way to the end of the shoe but as I said everything else is perfect. Any advice?

[LvsTheworld]

Im Glad. I just kinda walked into the store, the guy helped me figure out size. I found my size in like 5 minutes

[lougnut]

I have the exact same shoes and tips from blisters or any type of way i should run in these?

[MrGJHart]

vibram is pronounced "vee-brum" but it depends on where you live and your ascent.

[Marine052191]

Finally got a run in after breaking them in walking. I usually ran in Asics, but let me tell you. I ran only two miles with these Vibrams, and my calfs are very sore. I've been swimming a lot also, so I have not really rested that much. Its been about three days. Still a little sore.  Just need to keep stretching.

[TheDailyRUN]

@Marine052191 Yep! just keep stretching (gently) and take it SLOW. As you can probably attest to, even 2 miles is a lot in those shoes if you're not used to them! I also recommend just spending a lot of time walking around in them

[efil4aggin92]

how did you get the size

[TheDailyRUN]

@efil4aggin92 I actually used a ruler and measured my foot from heel to the big toe (they say if your second toe is significantly longer than your big toe then it may be difficult to get a good fit) and then used their sizing guide online to know which size to order. Check out vibramfivefingers[dot]com and click on their "size and fit" tab.

[Hilker123]

I order the bilkia and the top is baggy and a little lose, i'm afraid if i go a size smaller it will be to short. should i keep the ones that i ordered and is there a way to maybe shrink them.

[pianomanmaestro]

How do you like your Vibrams??? I just orderd the same ones in that color cannot wait to try them out....

[TheDailyRUN]

@pianomanmaestro I like them a lot! Fun to do the occasional run (mostly on grass) in them and also for just kicking around!

[ChocolateMoose369]

u look like topher grace :)

[Marine052191]

I found my pair online, KSO in blue! Well, I got all gitty, and I ordered the wrong size! BLAH! (Facepalm!) So... I am sending my KSOs back to trade in for a size 45 (US; 11 1/2) I oredered a pair in size 47, my traditional shoe size thinking that they would fit fine.

[lee3nfi3ld460]

LOL! they guy who sold me my 5 fingers said the same thing about being "connected to the ground" then apologized for getting all hippy :P. I'm not a runer but I ant tog et into it i have some knee and hip problems and i was told that these shoes will help with that so i;m goign on my first small run witht hem tommorow.

[FlipSnipeZ]

LOL @ the Caterpillar part

[ShaydeBand]

Ryan Adams! Go you!

[daniel238850]

We have the same shoes... Ps. You inspired me to do this as anew year's resolution. I'm going to make a page for it. thanks man.

[iceman241111]

Hey robert my name is Forest and i been running for years now i been thinking of Jenny and sometimes Bubba. Bubba really got on my nerves him and his damn shrimp and he really did need to tuck his bottom lip in before he got it caught on a trip wire. But anyway keep up the good work robert and remember life is like a box of chocaletes you never know what your going to get. You best buddy Forest Dump wait wait its spelled Gump.
