Yes please, want both pairs asap! The road zero will make a cracking gym shoe. My only complaint with my current trail minimus is they now whiff rather bad and the wife wants me to chuck em out. My fault for wearing without socks, but they're so comfy! Definitely my favourite running shoe that i've owned, so got big expectations for the zero range.
And while we're at it you can add the 110 to the want list.

Do we know if these are going to be available in the UK?
Excellent!
Another helpful piece from iRunFar which adds to the debate on "what drop?"

Plenty of comments follow the article.

Ross Tucker of the Sports Scientist blog was along on that expedition. His account, including video diaries, is below. I might add that the Science of Sport blog is excellent and Ross' book "The Runner's Body" is required reading for anyone in our sport. Superb and very easy to read. It's bloody cheap from Amazon too.

Not sure if this has been posted before but it made me smile :closed:
Poacher turned game-keeper
I think the main problem with barefooting from a fell running angle is that so far (apart from inov8, and they just seem to fall to bits as you run!) no-one has come up with a shoe with enough grip.
The vivobarefoots aren't bad, don't have the resources to try any others but from what I've heard, they're all very much 'trail' shoes.
Once my vivo's wear down, mebbe I'll see if I can get them resoled over at LSR in Burnley?
