The Worlds Best Barefoot Alternative. 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. 
5 Key Reasons to Wear or Train in Vibram FiveFingers:
1. Enhanced proprioception improves balance and agility – when wearing Vibram FiveFingers, thousands of neurological receptors in the feet send valuable information to the brain, improving balance, agility, body mechanics, and posture.
2. Healthier feet - conventional shoes not only cast the foot, they often press the toes together and limit range of motion. FiveFingers gently spread the toes, enhance range of motion, and encourage your feet to move in a more natural way.
3. Stronger foot muscles - wearing FiveFingers will stimulate and strengthen muscles in the feet and lower legs, improving general foot health and reducing the risk of injury.
4. Reduced back pain - by removing the heel lift, FiveFingers enable a more natural hip and spine alignment, helping improve posture.
5. It just feels good - we always stress how important it is to listen to your body – most folks tell us wearing FiveFingers just feels good!
