Review:
My second pair of Vibrams which I bought mainly for running use on grass or road (as much as you can run on the road with Five Finger shoes). The Bikila LS model has a very comfortable and snug fit, making it ideal for running. The sole is fairly thin and without much profile, so not ideal for off-road use (although grip is excellent on dry ground despite the low profile). Really happy with this model and would certainly buy another one. So far it has been very durable despite frequent use. Use with Five Finger socks is recommended for additional comfort and sweat absorption (I use the Inji brand).
Pros:
- Super-light - the true barefoot feeling
- Great for running on grass or paved surfaces due to low profile
- Snug fit
Cons:
- None
Comment:
Best running Five Finger shoe I have tested so far, highly recommended if your intention is primarily for running.
