Outwit. Outplay. Outlast. That is the Survivor motto, and contestants will do anything they can to get an edge in any one of those categories. So, it doesn’t come as a surprise that a lot of participants are now wearing FiveFingers to get an edge in the challenges. Last year we spotted Ozzy Lusth, Survivor […]
About a month ago we posted some picture from the Vibram store located in the SM Mall of Asia in Manila, Philippines. We weren’t really aware of this store beforehand, so we were all amazed that such a store existed and wanted to know more about it. As fate would have it, two weeks ago my […]
Vibram’s new ad campaign “What’s Your Story?” is, simply put, awesome. The production is really slick and they are finding some really interesting stories to feature. A few weeks ago we posted the Vibram Tattoo video which sparked a great conversation on the Facebook page and Twitter. This week Vibram is back at it again […]
Over on the MyFiveFingers Facebook Page we’ve been having a lot of fun sharing pictures of celebrities with FiveFingers photoshopped onto their feet. You’ve seen our Mitt Romney and Tim Tebow pictures, and now we’d like to present President Obama and Britney Spears. What celebrity would you like us to photoshop FiveFingers onto next?
Steven Sashen over at Invisible Shoes put together a riff on the latest craze, “Sh*t _______ Say(s)”. That blank has been filled in with everything from “my dad” to “silicon valley”, and now “barefoot runners”. We like this video because it pokes fun at us all, and we could all use that from time to […]

In 2011 Vibram started a marketing campaign titled ‘Your Story’, where they promote short videos of people with interesting stories involving their products. I don’t think it gets more interesting than Adam Downing, a gym owner and the man featured in our ‘Video of the Week’: He got the Vibram logo tattooed on his foot. […]
I snapped the picture below when I was at the Navy Exchange the day after Christmas (12/26/2011). I was rummaging through my phone today and came across it and remembered I hadn’t yet shared it. I’ve written about the Navy Exchange (NEX) several times in the past, but for those non-military folks, the NEX is a […]
When Steven Wylie sent us a video of his FiveFinger review via Twitter, we thought it was going to be a typical step-by-step reviews of why FiveFingers are awesome. What we weren’t expecting was to LOL throughout the review… this kid is funny: http://youtu.be/4oh8FdJetf8 We’ll even give him a pass for his mispronunciation of Vibram and Bikila, […]
You may have seen the photos we posted a few days ago of MyFiveFingers.com reader Maricel Ivy Pono-Woods wearing FiveFingers while riding an elephant (here and here). Pretty cool pics. In my emails back-and-forth with Maricel I learned that she lived in the Philippines, which I thought was cool because I’m half-filipino myself. I began asking […]
