Vibram Men's Five Fingers, KSO EVO Crosstraining

Good luck getting the right size for your Vibrams. I was advised to get a size 6 by the Vibram UK store as I am normally a size 9 in trainers and 6 in Vibrams would be most fitting. Amazon had suggested size 9 which I was told would be way too big. I got these in 6.5 to wear barefoot. They were way too tight and made my feet hurt. I ordered size 8 and they are a little loose when barefoot so I guess you need to try the shoes on first before working out your size. The fit is quite wide - which suits my feet. The shoes are very well made and look like they're will wear for ages. I'm using them just for gym and circuits and they are great for that. I have wondered several times if they would come off during exercises like burpees or jumping jacks but they stayed firmly on, though my feet did move a little inside. I never wanted these silly looking shoes before but trainers didn't give me the feeling I wanted and actual barefoot training was causing skin to blister or just scrape off during exercise. These have done the job of filing that space between barefoot and trainers. Great grip too.

These are the second pair I have - one for inside and garden, and this pair for town, going to the shops, etc. With both pairs, it took a few days to get used to when new. I was a little worried that they were a little too long for the width, but I do have wide feet, so by tightening the lace, and wearing them in, the fit improved. I did try a size smaller size, the length was good but too narrow. I go running a lot, and I now find that my feet feel much better in this type of shoe than anything with a heel to walk around in after the run. I wear this type of shoe everyday. These with the red soles a little less because I'm a little self-conscious of the bright colour. My feet are getting used to uneven, stony roads/lanes, and overall walking feels comfortable. In hot weather, my feet get sweaty so I often put talc/foot powder in them. The first pair, that I have had for over 6 months, is starting to show wear and tear with the sole starting to come away. Some people might be annoyed about this because of the cost but, for me at the moment, the benefit for my feet outweighs the rubber sole problem.

These are wonderful shoes. Fit is good look good and they wear well. I only use them in the gym as I bought them for mainly squating and deadlift. They work better then the chucks I used to wear for this purpose. Washed them a few times in washing machine and they look good as new. I sweat a lot but these haven't picked up the smell much. As long as you let them dry out naturally not stuck in your gym bag. I have sensitive skin and I get sores and dry skin on my feet sometimes. These alleviate that problem.

I have wide feet, and I buy traditional trainers a size or two up to compensate rather than shop from the limited selection of wider fitting shoes. In the Evo's I bought how my feet measure and they fit like a glove although I found conflicting size chart info on the official Vibram store site and the UK stockist Barefoot Junkie which made deciding which size to order difficult, as a result I had to return my first order. I'd recommend following the official Vibram size chart. I'm a month in and I can feel my feet getting stronger and my bunion discomfort has reduced. At first it feels as though you have put in a 12-hour shift, on your feet all day, and I have an office job. It was a relief to take them off at the end of the day but as your foot strength increases, they just feel like you are barefoot. I am still building my strength, so I haven't completed a full workout in them. I have briefly tested Double Unders and Kettlebell work. I did get ever so slight knee pain on the foot I have a bunion on which I use as a guide to know if I have been overdoing it before my feet are up to strength so only time will tell if that goes away eventually. If it does, I am barefoot for life. I will get a trail pair with water resistance between the toes next time as you are limited to indoor or dry days to wear them. If you do go outside when its dry in winter your toes get very cold.

This is an eye catcher, everyone loves to look at your feet. I've jogged 10 miles with these and felt good. If you're looking to buy one, get the exact measurement of your foot and use that. For example, I usually wear 10 UK size, but my real measurement indicates that my size 9.5. Also, it's best to wash often.

I bought 2nd pair as the 1st one I had it for years. And after 2 months and this what did happen to my new vibram. The rubber part separated form the material. I am using vibram for gym training only!! Please see my old pair photo.

they smell when wet and my feet have never smelt before and don't smell when I wear sandals, or shoes with socksso prefer using Xero shoes open sandals for running though would prefer something that gave a better feel of the ground. Still nothing like walking or running barefoot but better than big heavy trainers or padded footwear, but the smell when wet stops me wearing them even though I can out them on the washing maching. It's too much hassle

I have run in Vibrams for years, so I will not focus on comfort, etc. since that is dependent on each individual. Rather, I will say that this is the first pair of Vibrams I purchased online, and I did so after checking a couple of sizing guides. The shoes fit as expected, which is great. The shoes are also standing up to my workouts (lots of outdoors offroad running). Given the cost of these minimalist shoes, I expect them to last a while, and so far they are lasting as expected.

Also ich muss sagen das ich positiv überrascht bin. Meine Füße sind beruflich doch recht belastet und haben dementsprechend probleme. Ich habe gleich festgestellt das die Schuhe perfekt gepasst haben. Habe die größe nach der vibram website gemessen. Nun dachte ich mir pack mal vorsichtshalber die wanderschuhe und socken ein und gleich ab in den wald. Bin mit den vibrams den fränkischen dünenweg zum teil gewandert und noch einen abstecher ins unterholz gewagt. Es ist ein erstaunliches gefühl und ich wollte die schuhe garnicht mehr ausziehen. Die sohle ist zwar dünn aber man hat keinerlei probleme oder schmerzen wenn man nicht auf den spitzesten stein stampft den man finden kann. Absolut klasse und ein versuch wert. Vorallem bei dem preis. Vielen dank vibram.

E' il mio terzo paio dei Vibram ed e' anche quello piu' comodo. Questo modello lo avevo gia provato durante il viaggio a Oslo e mi sono ricordato il nome e la misura. Consiglio a tutti comunque di farlo con i Vibram, e' fondamentale. A differenza degli altri modelli che ho, questo delinea proprio l'arco laterale del piede. Si sentono davvero come un guanto, non pesano quasi nulla e forniscono eccesionale controllo e trazione. Perfette per gli scatti e palestra.

I gave it a 3 star coz 1 week after using them, the adhesive sticking the sole near the big toe came off, that’s annoying given the price of the shoe, coz I’ll have to spend some more on repairing it. Overall, I Love them, it takes your foot a week or 2 to get comfortable in them, you’ll need comfortable five finger socks as well coz the sole is thin.

Super cómodos y se adapta muy bien al pie, muy prácticos para entrenamientos ya sea corriendo o estando en el área de pesas, sin duda volvería a comprarlos.

One of the best V5F's ! Comfortable, Stylish, and flexible . They fit great! Feel out of this world. They do run a bit small so (wear a 43 go 44). Socks fit great a size larger!
