The shoes like gloves

Updated: 2006-06-13 13:46

It's easy to get a pair of five finger socks and it's comfort to wear it. But how about a pair of five finger shoes?

This shoe fits like a glove, literally. Vibram's FiveFingers is touted as a water approach shoe and an after sport recovery shoe, but it's also great for just kicking around. The experience is like walking barefoot while being protected from the elements.

Walking with FiveFingers shoes also helps relieve foot stress. While it looks similar to an aqua sock, this shoe will not stay on during aggressive water activities. There are plans for an aqua sock in the near future. The sole on the FiveFingers is similar to that of a climbing shoe and is razor siped to provide additional traction.

So this summer, put on a pair of five finger shoes and to enlarge the treatment of walking barefoot.
