We called them the vibram kso of Suck a few years ago and I was sure they were crazy. Friends, I’m here to tell you I was wrong. And I’m sorry. Here’s my story: I ran a marathon a few years ago. I got plantar fasciitis and couldn’t run after the marathon. I worked through that inflammation but by the time I was ready to run vibram FiveFingers Sprint again I had gained thirty pounds. Wham. Shin-splints. So I was a fat former runner with leg problems. The prognosis wasn’t good. So I tried a few things – the elliptical, weight training, losing some freaking weight – but the thing that saved me were these vibram five fingers shoes. I swore I’d never wear vibram five fingers.

We have been spying a bit on your site to see what’s next out of Vibram. Thanks for the repost. As for the shoes, I love them. I recently picked up the "Trek" version. Made more for hiking with its aggressive tread I still work out in them and wear them wherever my wife won't be too embarrassed by me wearing them. (They do get a lot of attention and questions). Amazing concept and I am definitely drinking the kool-aid. Justin,

It's good to get a CrossFit review perspective -- despite a lot of people using VFFs for CrossFit, I don't see too many reviews that talk about how Five Fingers function with stuff like double-unders. I will say, whacking your VFF'ed feet with the jump rope while doing d-us can hurt! I'll be picking your review up in my <a href="http://birthdayshoes.com/vibram-five-fingers/reviews/" rel="nofollow">weekly round-up of Vibram Five Fingers reviews</a> on birthdayshoes.com. It posts on Sunday -- just a little link love for good reviews like this. Happy VFF'ing. J Nice review.
