This is a review of the Vibram FiveFingers Speeds by Birthdayshoes.com
Unlike any other shoe, the Vibram Speed is designed specifically for a more natural walking experience.
Built on an entirely new platform, the Speed features a Dri-lex® covered 3mm polyurethane insole (thickest under the ball) and a 3 mm anatomical pod outsole design, that offers more plating protection and distributes forefoot impact without compromising important ground feedback, essential to a proper forefoot strike running form. A more athletic padded collar and topline, a lace closure and Mesh upper for improved ventilation.
SPEED IS BEST FOR: Light Trekking, Running, Fitness & Travel
What If They Don’t Fit? Our 14 Day 100% Guaranteed No Hassle Return Policy allows you to refund or exchange your fivefingers if they are the wrong size.

Need some advice on finding the right size?
Measure the length of your foot from the back of your heel to the end of your big toe while standing. You'll get the most accurate measurement if you have your heel against a wall - stand on a ruler or a tape measure, look directly over your foot and read off the end of your big toe.

9 Healthy Reasons to Wear FiveFingers
Vibram FiveFingers is different than any other footwear on the planet. Not only do they bring you closer to your environment, FiveFingers deliver a number of positive health benefits—by leveraging all of the body’s natural biomechanics, so you can move as nature intended.
1. Gently Spreads Your Toes – with a wider foot base you strengthen your foot muscles, increase range of motion, and improve general foot health.
2. Improves Range of Motion in Ankles, Feet and Toes – no longer ‘cast’ in a shoe, the foot and toes move more naturally.
3. Strengthens Muscles in the Feet and Lower Legs - wearing FiveFingers will stimulate and strengthen muscles in the feet and lower legs, improving general foot health and reducing the risk of injury.
4. Stimulates Neural Function Important to Balance and Agility - when wearing Vibram FiveFingers, thousands of neurological receptors in the feet send valuable information to the brain, improving balance and agility.
5. Improves Proprioception and Body Awareness – those same neurological receptors heighten body awareness, sending messages about body mechanics, form, and movement.
6. Eliminates Heel Lift to Align the Spine and Improve Posture – By lowering the heel, our bodyweight becomes evenly distributed across the footbed, promoting proper posture and spine alignment which can aid in lower back pain.
7. Enhanced Running Efficiency - research has shown that running barefoot results in a 4% increase in efficiency.
8. Diminish Risk of Bunions - conventional shoes press our toes together. Fivefingers gently spread them and encourages the big toe to work.
9. Allows the Foot and Body to Move Naturally, Which Just Feels Good!!. Go the FiveFingers!
