I have a pair of Treksports, and anyone considering running in these is out of their damn mind. I tried it, and my feet felt like they were gonna fall off after only a 1/2 mile. Even after walking on smooth terrain for a few hours, my feet get very sore.
I'm not knocking them though - they give you a very free, unrestricted feel, and I do feel that they've improved my posture... but running in them is just out of the question with barely any sole. I don't know how the hell Bikila did it.
@siciliano29 Switching shoe styles and trying to run the same way as before, or at full capacity without taking the (considerable amount) time to get your body used to the new experience will cause this.
The majority of regular running shoes on the market, have a soul that's flexible enough to allow you to run in the Pose style... I tried this for a month or so and found that I missed the stability of a regular running shoe. Plus, where would you attach a Nike+ sensor?!
@thealadar not if you have a lame Windows phone :| I guess I need to upgrade, but so far I like my Nike+, even though there are some things I wish it would do and post.
many white man not use to run or walk using barefoot..so that there are acting like so feminine ...i can run barefoot ,,,how much more i have vibram ....
@YoshiEatsWasabi That happen to my friend who put all his believes and trust in this company and start running in country side and end up in ER yes I wont recommend these to anyone
@bigboyburnsy didn't @MrBazzzzinga just gave a great example of what might happen with those running shoes? I thought that's what your eyes are for. To read comments that may suggest that these shoes are potential danger for people.
@YoshiEatsWasabi Well, i can't speak for these particular shoes that the guy in the video is holding (classics or sprints?) and i also can't speak for people who try these shoes as i have never even tried these shoes on or experienced them. I do however own a pair of Bikila's and will tell you thus far i am impressed with this minimalist running shoe. The main danger is when people do too much activity too soon, the atrophied foot muscles, weak ankles and calves need to be strengthened first
@YoshiEatsWasabi I can't agree more. However, YOU step on a nail, and you're fucked! So.... Let agree that we will both look where we step and be civil about this.
the design is complete and utter crap. Had they covered the toe area with a velcro flap or whatever it would've looked so much better than the gorilla paw it is now. Stupid product designers. Try taking that to the REAL streets. I wonder if someone CAN run a mile in those. I owned sports shoes with similar extra slim soles. I went for a run and came back home in a few mins looking for my regular trainers. Aaaand that was in Dubai, where they pave sidewalks with 15% rubber in their asphalt mix.
@DakotaJanes ... actually, a lot of people put a lot of miles on these. They're not for everyone, and you need to be committed to them. Also, you need to realize in order to run in these you will likely have to change your biomechanics and learn to forefoot strike rather than heel strike. The reason for separating the toes is a different issue, and the claim is that they allow for increased balance and road/path feel.
@sassamafracken That will completely depend on where you are running. I can run barefoot on many natural surfaces as well as track, but not on asphalt inside a city. Sweat in a pair then we will talk about it :o)
I use Vibram KSO's for running and thought I was pose running. I can find no real help anywhere on the proper method for using the pose method. Anyone have any info?
@airtexaco Check the rest of posetv. Furhermore take a look on the posetech website, there's a whole lot of info on there. Also check the thjeko YT channel for more vids and explanations.
I run exclusively in Vibrams. I try other shoes out periodically but nothing comes close to them. I just completed a 64km Mountain Race over some pretty rough terrain in the new Vibram Bikilas. Admittedly me feet got pretty tired and i was exhausted from watching every foot placement for the whole day, but they are the most comfortable shoe for running I have worn.
He's very right-leg dominant and carries his left with a bit of extra care. He's also developed different muscle groups in his left leg and it's obvious in his running technique why that is.
What exactly happened? An injury of course but did it never heal?
@Peekingduck Just like any other surface, really.... I mostly run barefoot now, but I remember it being okay, only easier on the soles compared to barefoot running, as my soles weren't fully developed at the time. They're good for breaking in your feet to barefoot running, but I don't think they were designed for urban running. They most likely won't last as long as if you were to run on grass or sand, but by that time your feet should be naked. :)
The easiest way to get these on is simply to leave the shoe on the ground and spread the toes as you slide your foot into the shoe....most likely each toe will go right where it belongs.
Love the 5Fingers and love Pose Technique Dr. R. Thanks for the review. Couldn't help but notice the external rotation of the left foot in the video which I haven't noticed from you before on the videos. Everything OK with that left hip?

@0gardner there are a few outstanding apps (eg Endomondo) for your phone (Android/iPhone) that do more than Nike +. Your phone is your sensor ;)

five toes in Italian(Vibram is an Italian company) translates to five fingers

I love my Vibrams. I started barefoot running, and now with piece of mind with VFF. No injuries of traditional running.

Brilliant !
I'm starting to understand what a genius Dr Romanov really is.
Any idea how the VFF's do on asphalt and hard surfaces by the way ?
Thanks for the upload.
Peekingduck 1 year ago
@Peekingduck there is nothing different about hard surfaces or soft surfaces, the impact is mostly absorbed by your foot and calves regardless
I've ran over 300 miles on asphalt in the past 6 months, no issues at all
