FIVEFINGERS

NATURE IS WHERE YOU BELONG

Vibram
FiveFingers
“MOVE FREELY”

Vibram FiveFingers was born from the desire to rediscover contact with our natural environment, returning to the essence of the human foot becoming one with our surroundings.
When you wear Vibram FiveFingers, you facilitate a deeper connection between your body and the natural environment. When you Move Freely, there isn’t anywhere you can’t go. Whoever you are. Wherever you go. Move Freely.

What Are FiveFingers Shoes?

The idea behind the creation of the FiveFingers shoes was to manufacture shoes that could fit cozily and comfortably around the foot. The bottom of the FiveFingers shoes is made of thin plated rubber in order to provide the wearer protection and enhanced grip.

The shoe is designed in such a way that your feet will be completely protected if you step on a stone or any other pointy thing. At the same time, you will be able to feel the texture and shape of the ground and recognize the difference between surfaces i.e. a lush green grass, a hilly area or street with pebbles.

Benefits of FiveFingers Shoes

As per studies, the padding on the traditional shoes lowers the ability of our feet to sense what’s beneath it when it hits the ground. The dullness of this sense can lead to injury. However, with Vibram FiveFingers, your feet are in contact with the ground; the sense doesn’t get affected and it reduces the risk of injury.

The human body is structured in such a way that it gets adjusted to the way it is used for a number of years, which implies that our feet are to be utilized without shoes. As per mechanical point of view, the actual purpose of our toes is to give us extra grip while we walk on any surface. In such a case where you are barefoot and hit a turf, your foot will adjust accordingly and you will be able to maintain your position.

THE FIRST SOLE FOR MOUNTAINEERING SINCE 1937

For over 80 years, since the creation of the first rubber sole for mountaineering “the Carrarmato”, Vibram has been a guarantee of quality and performance, innovation and design. Designed in 1937 by Vitale Bramani to satisfy the need to raise levels of safety and protection in the mountains, our soles, featuring their unmistakable yellow octagon, are now destined for the world of outdoors, safety at work, lifestyle, orthopaedics and repair.
