FiveFingers KSO

In just over a year, the KSO has become our most popular model for men. When you're scrambling up a rocky bluff or bounding along a riverbed, the last thing you want is gravel and grit seeping into your Vibram FiveFingers. The KSO is an all-new design with thin, abrasion-resistant stretch polyamide and breathable stretch mesh that wraps your entire forefoot to "Keep Stuff Out". A single hook-and loop closure helps secure the fit. Non-marking Vibram TC1 performance rubber soles and razor-siped for a sure grip. *Machine washable. Air dry.

Opinions of this product

I turned to my first pair of Vibram FiveFingers 'Classics' after I injured my back running the Knysna half marathon. This injury resulted in some intense research on running injuries and stumbled apon the benefits of barefoot running and Vibram Five Fingers. It always struck me how differently a child ran compared to a middle aged adult. That's when I gave Vibram FiveFingers a go. It did take a transition period of about 6 months. There is a period of an intense amount of stimulation your feet get - which quickly translates to INFORMATION which your feet use to tread carefully without you having to think about it! I got so hooked on running with Vibram FiveFingers that I ordered my second pair, the KSO's shortly after to participate in trail races. Obviously being the only woman in Cape Town to participate in 21km plus trail races does get its comments but the comments fell away when I happily skip ahead and recover quickly the next day. I feel like an absolute KID running on Table mountain with them! My feet, legs and running strengthened NOTICEABLY. I have now recently received a pair of Vibram FiveFingers BIKILA's in HOT PINK and all I can say is: sexy, sassy and deadly fast! These are now my road running/racing Vibram FiveFingers since I honestly don't have the heart to take these pretty ladies onto the trails... yet. So if you see a crazy chick hopping around on table mountain or on the road with neon pink Vibram FiveFingers with a HUGE grin on her face - its more than likely me!

Whether it is swinging Kettlebells or doing my Pilates practice, nothing give me that authentic barefoot feeling like wearing a pair of Five Fingers. Finally I can explore new training terrain without losing the benefits of being barefoot.

FiveFingers are the perfect shoe for me for hiking in and out of remote climbing routes. They are so light I barely feel them hanging off my harness while climbing. They are extremely comfortable and allow me to truly feel closer to nature.
