I was anxiously waiting for the attractive and lovely shoes. When vibram five fingers arrived, I thought the box looked too small. Once opened, I could see that shoes without all the bells and whistles, heels and whatnot don’t really require much of a box. I immediately took off my shoes and socks and tried on the vibram shoes, I found myself staring at my feet while I wore vibram fivefingers. I recommend using the enclosed instructions for trying them on, I would have had a much easier time with it had I done so, as there is a definite method for putting them on.
The tops of the vibram five fingers are a nice light grey colored neoprene; the soles a thick rubber in green camo. The interior EVA footbed is yellow in color. The rubber soles come up around the tops of each of my toes and along the outside edges of both my big toe and my little pinky toe. I hope these five fingers shoes will help a lot with preventing any stubbing of my toes when climbing on rocks or running on trails.
