Vibram FiveFingers Women’s Trek Shoe Review

Regarding the fit of the Trek,authentic chanel bags outlet, they fit much looser than other VFF products,Chanel white cc frame transpartent lens sunglasses, which allows them to work really well with socks. There are absolutely no tight spots anywhere around my feet. That being said, I have experienced hotspots on the bottoms of my feet,chanel handbags replica 2010, specifically the bottoms of my big toes,France coco chanel black red pump 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, I still love the comfort of these shoes. I appreciate the extra room because of the activities that I do in these shoes,Chanel 2.55 bright blue leather colorful logo handbags, specifically a lot of trail running,latest chanel sunglasses 2011, when my feet tend to swell after long distances. These shoes really are ideal and extremely comfortable on rocky terrain,France coco chanel flap white color leather handbags, which very few minimalist shoes can claim.
Regarding the feel of the Trek against my skin,chanel bikini peach swatch, 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,chanel star necklace price, specifically within the toe pockets,chanel sunglasses 2011 women, my feet definitely do not. I do wear socks for the most part when I run with the Treks,chanel 2011 cruise collection handbags, though,France coco chanel black with white logo handbags, and have not spent much time in them sockless.
Weight
Each size W39 Trek weighs just under 5 ounces,Chanel gold with pink crystal cc earrings, or 140 grams. Although this is the heaviest of the VFFs that I own,chanel classic handbag price, they are far from heavy as a minimalist shoe. Even after relatively long runs,Chanel 2.55 deep black leather drum handbags, I do not feel the weight of these shoes on my feet.
Flex / Sole
The sole is comprised of a 4 mm EVA midsole,Chanel silver watch cc Necklace, which offers plating protection from stone bruising, 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,leaf earrings, 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, 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,Chanel gold key diamond Necklace, 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,chanel handbags suppliers, I did feel noticeably higher off the ground than in any other of my minimalist shoes. However, his was on concrete,France coco chanel lap red with gold button shoulder bags, once I stepped onto a trail, this feeling disappeared.
