Customer Reviews Vibram FiveFingers Vi-B

5-Fingers what were you thinking? NOT VEGAN. Arrived with a tag saying the shoe had been treated with Aegis, which is animal tested and was banned for use as a pesticide. It is also ineffective against odor. Aegis is a useless health and environmental risk and unethical. I’m returning these otherwise well designed shoes because of the Aegis. Nice shoe. Light. Flexible. Therapeutic. Good for warm weather. Almost cute. The fabric is soft enough. Machine washable. Brannock size 7 ½ = size 38 in this shoe, but size 39 stays on comfortably too. I would recommend sizing up only if you have a bunion or long toes. The big toe and little toe should have a bit of extra space in length because, unfortunately, the soles under the toes are not toe shaped. Instead, the soles are shaped to conform to an over all round toe shape, which means that the big toe soles and little toe soles are slanted at the tip and would slant the wearer’s toe if the shoe is worn too small. The soles of course do not stretch but the top does stretch a bit, which would be fine if the individual toes were toe shaped. This is not a problem at all so long as the size you choose has a bit of space at the end.

I love, love, LOVE these shoes! I have been wearing Vibram Fivefingers for several months now and find I do not want to wear any other shoes, and in fact, have not! I now have two pairs of the Vi-B's and get compliments every time I wear them! These are hands down the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. (All of my Fivefingers are!) . My feet and entire body are so much happier, not to mention with a LOT less pain, and that makes me feel better overall, plus my feet and ankles are stronger and far more flexible than ever before. I recommend them high!

I was looking for yoga shoes. These shoes are lightweight and comfortable. I like that there was no straps or buckles. I wear an 8.5 wide shoe/9.5 wide sneaker and tried the Vibram size 41. The shoe and toes were too long. Didn't expect a custom fit on all the toes I read a few reviews that said size up, for me this method didn't work. Will try one size down.

?I have three pairs of Vibram and lucked out getting leather before they quit selling them in the US. I have this pair in orange because I needed a cooler summer pair. Love them!! I wear stilettos for work and heels the rest of the time, but my feet were getting tired, so I gave Vibram a try about ten years ago, and now I feel like I am a Vibram rep every time I wear them out. LOVE THEM and plan to buy more pairs. I recently severely broke my right big toe and damaged the toe next to it. I can wear my Vibrams, and it is helping the healing and positioning in my foot so much! I highly suggest. I have very narrow heels and wear a size 8.5, and a 39 fits perfect! You will love them too!

Love these! I generally don’t like wearing shoes, and these feel like walking barefoot, only better because of the cushioning that the soles provide. The top mesh comfortably hugs my feet. I feel more stable in standing and forget I’m wearing them!!

These shoes completely relieved the pain on the bottom of my foot from tight shoes/ bunions. I had a tear that caused so much pain from walking on hard floors. These shoes instantly took my pain away - unlike any other slippers, shoes, or tennis shoes I have worn

These were my first pair of five fingers that fit really nice. I have a C width, with 3 stubby toes and a well padded instep that makes most shoes with straps very difficult. I loved that there were no straps, and my little fat baby toes slipped right in. Other styles I could not fit my baby toes in them. The sizes are really wonky. I measured my foot in inches (10 1/4) and sized this shoe accordingly. I ordered a 43 which according to Amazon was a 9.5 to 10, and here the 43 is a 10.5 -11. The inside shoe states that this is a 10-10.5. The width is great, the mesh conforms great to my pudgy foot. My big toe and 2nd toe fit nicely where as the other 3 toes there is room to spare at the top. I was afraid to size down as the shoe would be to small. I have worn them for a few days now and they feel good and look cute with pants or shorts when I want to go and do some quick shopping. I like the fact that they come with a mesh bag.

I usually wear an 8 1/2 - 9 in most shoes/boots. And I have a pair of 5 fingers in size 40, which fit well and I LOVE. I just rec'd a size 40 in this style, which says its equivalent to a size 8. That is TOO big, as in too long. The heel is slipping, and nearly sliding off. Feels sloppy. I'm going to return these and try a smaller size.

I had to exchange the first pair I ordered for a half size smaller, but I'm happy I gave them a chance. The more I wear these shoes, the more I love them! I have problems with my feet, ankles, knees, and hips... But everything feels so much better since I've made a habit of wearing my vibrams.

I love these shoes for the feeling of being barefoot, but with protection. This is my 4th pair! I wear them inside the house when I first get up, and also outside to do yard work. I think these are the most comfortable of all the five-finger shoes, and my daughter, who also has a pair, agrees.

I was looking forward to a new pair of Vibrams for pilates workouts and quick jog to car in parking lot. However, these mauve Size 41, which overall fit my foot, have a manufacturing defect of the rough seam under the R big toe. Left my toe sore with just two trips across my home. Upon inspection, the Left side does not have this defect, with the thickened seam being turned upwards along side of toe band. Right side feels like rough, ropey "something is caught my toe space". Returned.

I love them. My feet get cold when I walk with no shoes so this is perfect

Sized down one whole size and that was perfect. However, I need a shoe with some cushioning and this had none.

Love these all summer!

The fit was good so I ignored the suggestion to start wearing them slowly— my foot hurts today. So I recommend starting slowly.

Took a while to get there, but once I found it a good fit these were golden!

The sizing is way off on these. I wear a 10 in every other shoe which should be a 43 10-10.5 by what it says in the shoe. That was huge in this and the v soul model. I ended up needing the 41 which says 8.5-9 inside the shoe. Just crazy. I did end up choosing the v soul over this for comfort.

These shoes exceeded my expectations ... very comfy and cute. They rubbed a little at the heels when I first put them on, so I was all ready to buy little heel pads, but they settled into place and didn’t rub once I started walking. I put a few miles on them this morning, on concrete and a dirt trail, and my feet are happy and so am I. Great job, Vibram and Zappos!

Very comfortable.

I miss the previous version which was brighter colours.

My toes didn't work in these. If they'd been comfortable or fit I could have lived with how ugly they are. Instead, they're going back.

I thought these would be white but more similar to ivory; already look dirty new.

I love the look and feel of the shoe. Unfortunately I have to return them because they are too loose on my feet. I got the recommended size 40 from the Zappos website. I have two pair of the size 39 CVT Hemp that are a perfect fit. Thought I'd try a different style, but this just doesn't work for me.
