Vibram FiveFingers

Vibram FiveFingers, thousands of neurological receptors in the feet send valuable information to the brain, improving balance and agility. those same neurological receptors heighten body awareness, sending messages about body mechanics, form, and movement.
The typical human foot is really a miracle of evolution with 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments. Like the rest of the body, to keep our feet healthy, they need to be stimulated and exercised.Many experts believe the shoes we wear not only cast the foot in a protective form, but also weaken our foot and leg muscles.
leaving them underdeveloped and more prone to injury. And while there are many occasions where traditional footwear is essential for protection, safety, and security, it is equally important to stimulate and exercise the foot in a more natural state on a regular basis. That’s why we recommend wearing FiveFingers for exercise, for play, and for fun. Stimulating muscles in your feet and lower legs will not only make you stronger and healthier, it improves your balance, agility and proprioception.
