Feet First Into the History of the Vibram FiveFingers
conspicuous FiveFingers toe shoes have been the bastion of the barefoot shoe movement for over 15 years. While it remains a phalangeal curiosity for many, the story of the inimitable model’s uncompromising adherence to function over form is definitely admirable. Dipping a toe into the FiveFingers is not an option – you gotta enter its world feet first!
Despite their alternative aesthetic and performance-focused ethos, the Vibram FiveFingers has left its footprint on the world in just over 15 years. As it continues gradually wriggling its way into sneakerhead consciousness, perhaps the idea of wearing toe shoes isn’t as crazy as it used to be!
