SPRING/SUMMER 2014 Tested where it matters Talk More To The Five Toes Since 1937 Vibram has been known for its dedication to innovation, performance and durability. We set the bar high when it comes to these subjects and we would not accomplish this high level of quality without our attention to detail and ongoing testing of products. Every finished product that we bring to market is extensively tested and evaluated to ensure it performs at the highest level for the intended activity for that specific product. Nothing gets to the market without passing a series of rigorous tests, both in the lab and by the Vibram Tester Team athletes in the field. This catalog is a result of dedicated Vibram team members from all over the world who work hard every day to uphold the attention to detail we strive for. Each model within the following pages started as a concept in a design lab. The goal? To create a five-toed shoe that helps the end-user experience footwear that allows their foot to be as close to barefoot as possible while enjoying the outdoors, but still gives them the performance and durability they expect when they see the yellow octagon on the sole. So whether you are running a half marathon, doing your workout of the day or paddling into the sunset, there is a FiveFingers model to fit your needs. Rest assured that the shoe you select is going to perform at the highest level for the activity of your choice. You have our word on it.

    Impact of Alternative Footwear on Human Energy Expenditure

    Original Article Impact of alternative footwear on human energy expenditure CODY EDWARD MORRIS1 , HARISH CHANDER2, SAMUEL J. WILSON3, MARK LOFTIN3, CHIP WADE4, JOHN C. GARNER5 1School of Kinesiology, Recreation & Sport, Western Kentucky University, United States of America 2Department of Kinesiology, Mississippi State University, United States of America 3Department of Health, Exercise Science & Recreation Management, University of Mississippi, United States of America 4Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, Auburn University, United States of America 5Department of Kinesiology and Health Promotion, Troy University, United States of America ABSTRACT Purpose: Use of alternative footwear options such as flip-flop style sandals and minimalist athletic shoes are becoming increasingly popular footwear choices. The purpose of the investigation was to analyze the energy expenditure and oxygen consumption requirements of walking at preferred pace while wearing flip-flops, slip- on style shoes, and minimalist athletic shoes. Methods: Eighteen healthy male adults participated in this study. In addition to an initial familiarization session, participants were tested in three different footwear conditions [thong-style flip-flops (FF), Croc® slip on shoes (CROC), and Vibram Fivefingers® minimalist shoes (MIN)]. Then after a brief warm-up, participants walked a one-mile distance at their preferred pace. Immediately following completion of the one-mile walk, participants stood quietly on the treadmill for an additional period to assess excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). Results: A repeated- measures ANOVA that the following variables did not show evidence of a significant differently value between conditions: preferred pace (p = 0.392), average oxygen consumption (p = 0.804), energy expenditure per mile (p = 0.306), or EPOC (p = 0.088).

    Product Catalogue 2019

    Product Catalogue 2019 The strength of the human foot lies in its structural capability to adapt - depending on the movement, it changes from a very sturdy and efficient shock absorber, to a reactive and powerful propulsion source. There is an elementary function that is often overlooked; the foot performs as a sensory organ. Due to its flexibility and natural articulation, it can adapt and sense the ground with every step, much like the characteristics of our hands. The real-time data our foot collects and delivers to the brain as we step, helps us with instinctive and natural human movement. The mission of Vibram FiveFingers® is to engineer essential protective* footwear always aiming at allowing the human foot to move naturally and uncompromised. The human body is strong, by nature. Vibram FiveFingers® is a protective* tool and “articulated” rubber sole in the shape of the human foot. The glove-like upper respects the natural functionality of the foot, allowing you to feel the ground naturally with a level of protection*. All the outdoor styles feature our Vibram Megagrip sole compound for superior grip on dry and wet surfaces. We’re even innovating some of our uppers and liners to include a higher wool content, which keeps a more optimal foot climate. 2019: the next level of naturally “articulated” footwear. MAX FEEL AND INTENSIVE PRODUCTS MAX FEEL PRODUCTS You Are The Technology at its pure state: maximum articulation and ground feel combined to essential protection*. INTENSIVE You Are The Technology at its extended state: great articulation and ground feel + extended protection* for specific activities.

In addition, we highlight the existence of gaps in these concepts and propose possible new approaches. Methods: This review was undertaken in line with the guidelines proposed by Green et al., based on a literature search (until December 2019) of the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus and Google Scholar databases. A total of 23 papers met the inclusion criteria applied to identify the definition of running shoes. Results: Although there is a certain consensus on the characteristics of minimalist footwear, it is also described by other terms, such as barefoot-style or barefoot-simulating. Diverse terms are also used to describe other types of footwear, and in these cases, there is little or no consensus regarding their characteristics.

    Running As Nature Intended: Barefoot Running As Enskillment and a Way of Becoming

    Blaž Bajič: Running as nature intended: Barefoot running as enskillment and a way of becoming Running as nature intended: Barefoot running as enskillment and a way of becoming Blaž Baji~ University of Ljubljana, [email protected] Abstract In recent years, recreational running has been growing in popularity in Slovenia, and it appears that the trend will continue unabated. Simultaneously, practices of running and the meanings that people ascribe to them have also been diversifying. One such faction has evolved around and through running barefoot. Adherents of this particular way of running reject conventional running shoes as being potentially harmful to the human body and as an obstacle to an authentic way of running and perceiving the environment. Defined by its practitioners as the most natural mode of running, it necessitates a gradual accustoming to a barefoot running technique and the gradual development of feet to be able to withstand the demands of such running. Moreover, it requires novices to learn to perceive and to react to the contours of the ground in a specific manner. This learning takes place with the help of more experienced practitioners and with the help of exemplars embodied in some non-Modern peoples. KEYWORDS: barefoot running, body techniques, environment, popular culture, anthropology of sport Introduction Writing about the New York City Marathon, the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard observed that the overwhelming majority of the participants in the marathon were not running to win, running ‘without even a thought for victory, but simply in order to feel alive’ (1989: 19). For him, running the marathon was tantamount to suffering, a meaningless ‘demonstrative suicide,’ by which the runners proved nothing except the endlessly self- evident fact that they exist (Baudrillard 1989: 21).
