:D Barefoot Running

[Inov-8 Insider]

I'd love to try some VFF or equivalant but don't fancy paying up front for something I might use a couple of times and not like.

any one know of a shop that has test shoes to try??

Ian you could always see if Naked Ape in Sheffield have any test 5fingers, they seem to be the main stockist in the North.

I did see a lad running on roads today in 5fingers through Anniesland-Glasgow.

I'll try them Ta

Are you sure the lad just hadn't had his shoes pinched

Well I bough a pair of VFF classics and luved them so then got a pair of the KSO liked them also.

Yesterday I got a pair of Treks thay are just fantastic.

More grip than the others on wet grass and mud . A little less feel under foot which for me is good as I use them on some very rough trails.

I wear £6 canvas shoes at work, go barefooted at home and wear the classics out to the gym etc,

Have been using the F lite as a transition shoe but also run on the trails and road in the KSO, if your only going to get one pair go for the Treks and get someone to bring them in from the states for you as I did.

Where did you get your Treks from Loon?
I thought they weren't being stocked in the UK until next year?

He says in his post that he got them from the States

[Loon Dod]

Well spotted Richard.

Yea got them from sports city in New York and hand carried back.

Their are folks on the Vibram five finger birthdayshoes site site willing to purchase for you and ship to you as a gift and you pay them via paypal.

[Terry the Tortoise]

Bloody good idea! Sending as a gift means you don't have to pay extra, right? Did you find the Treks came up the same size as your KSO's?
