They are five finger shoes with an attractive, yet unusual look and feel. They are like a sturdy glove that surrounds feet and toes.
As they are flat, they help to maintain the natural posture of your body. More traditional shoes, with heels, don't do this.
Vibram shoes allow you to walk like barefoot, but have your sensitive foot soles protected at the same time.
They are especially great for sport activities such as running and jogging due to their comfortability and good grip.
Vibrams come in different models in order to allow you to choose the right one for each activity. They cost an average of $80 per pair.
If you look around online shops you can find them for lower prices, such as $60 or below.
If you like healthy feet and barefoot walking, but want to have your soles and feet well protected, Vibram has models you should consider looking into.
