Vibram FiveFinger Sprint
Falling between the Classics and KSO’s, the FiveFinger Sprints provide the best of both worlds. An open-top design combined with dual heel straps and an over the foot strap help provide a more custom fit, while making them much easier to put on than KSO’s or other closed-top models. Combined with the same thin sole as the Classics, the Sprints are basic minimalist form with plenty of function.
A word of caution: Sprints have been known to size a bit smaller than KSO’s, so you may double-check your size if you’ve fitted FiveFingers in the past.
What These FiveFingers Will Help You Do
Just like the KSO’s and Classics there’s not much you can’t do in the Sprints. Here’s just a few things they’re good for:
- Running
- Light hiking/trekking/bouldering
- Weightlifting
- Aerobics/yoga
- Casual wear
- Travel
- Watersports
People Who Should Buy the Vibram FiveFinger Sprint
- Runners
- Athletes
- Hikers (on milder terrain)
- Boaters/Watersports enthusiasts
- People with higher arches, but want a more secure fit than the Classics
You Shouldn’t Buy These FiveFingers If…
- Just like the rest of the older models with razor-siped soles, there is not much tread if you’re on rocky or rough terrain.
- If you don’t like your feet wet, don’t wear these in the rain or damp conditions.
