VibramMen's V-Train 2.0 Sneaker

I absolutely love my new shoes! I've been tempted to buy this style of shoe for a while as I find traditional shoes quite heavy restrictive on my toes and love walking barefoot. They're so light that it's literally like going barefoot but with a nice protective and sole with excellent grip. The fabric is thin so whilst it does get wet running through wet grass, they dry quickly.After years of compressing my toes into shoes that have a different shape to my actual foot, I feel like these shoes are really beneficial to my foot health, being able to move my toes individually feels like I'm using my feet to their full potential and strengthening my toes.Ive listed a couple of cons to be aware of, but have still rated them as 5* as they're the best shoes I've ever had.Cons:1) I have found running on stony paths quite sore on my heels. Although I suppose that's the point to train my body out of putting too much impact on my heel, but my heels ached for a few days after one run so this wasn't ideal. No issues on pavement or grass.2) I get quite a few comments about the unusual look.3) It takes me about 5 mins to put them on.4) long grass gets stuck between my toes and the shoe trys to yank it out of the ground, this slows me a bit, but fine for walks or ambling runs.

Best things I’ve ever had thank you.

These shoes have revolutionised my powerlifting form, in particular thanks to the unrivalled grip, direct contact with the floor, and agility to adapt and adjust form from the ground up.

Have several finger type trainers, and liked the extra stability element, ground feel remains pretty good, but definitely slightly on snug side. Hopefully stretch out a little or will be going for larger size in next 1-2 weeks.

Love my shoes, today did 8k trail endurance assault course… loads of compliments. Super comfy grippy and cute

While I love the product itself, the problem here lies with how Amazon sells it. Describing the ‘UK size’ is not useful when seasoned wearers know the EU size they need. I wear EU 45, but ordering a UK 10 got me an EU 41(???) and ordering UK 10.5 got me EU 46 - as fit is everything with FiveFingers, this led to a long and protracted order/return/order again cycle with the final result that I had to go somewhere other than Amazon in the end.

Amazon needs to sort themselves out with sizes. Some pickers pick uk7.5and others pick USA 7.5. So I ordered uk7.5 was sent USA 7. Which equates to UK 6-6.5. So the next pair I ordered up a size and received a size smaller than the previous. Today I went much bigger in size UK 10 and actually received a uk10 which are too big, silly of me to think they would send smaller like previous attempts.
