Vibram KSO Field Notes: Day 1
Unboxing/First Impressions
Packaging
Comes in normal shoe box
Build Quality
- Can see glue around the edges of seams
- Not sure if that is a sign of poor build quality or not. Will have to see how well it lasts over time
- Vibram sole appears like it will protect well
- It should as they are known for their soles
Fit
At store
- Good fit
- Snug – feels like a sock. Very form fitting
- Just short of constricting
At home
- Pain!
- Left pinky toe (Right pinky toe was snug, but not painful)
- Every step on tile floor in apartment
- Why? – Possibly because sole of shoe grips much better on tile floor
- Solution (possibly) – Cut toe nail down
- Much better, not as much pain, but still a little. Need to wear longer to evaluate.
