Review on Enhanced V-Trail 2.0 Trail Running Shoes for Men by Vibram FiveFingers by Victor Pinckney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

vibram; Masterful design for runners

I have been using Vibram shoes for a long time. It is a true running and outdoor shoe that gives the wearer the optimal minimalist feel. For me personally, the Vibram Alpha is the lightest and most minimal shoe that can be used for running. I asked a question about Alpha. I wanted to know if it's good to be part of the Revain community. Some people said yes, but only on the trails. Others said to walk with them but be careful because of their thin soles. I've been using Alpha for about a week. They are amazing! I usually get the Vibram trace. I bought the Vibram Trails 2.0 because it was the last time I used the Trail Edition. I received my "Trail 2.0" today. I tried them on and they fit perfectly. I was usually 12 in shoes. I have wide feet and I have flat feet. I order 11-11.5 or 45 in European sizes. I would like other reviewers to mention this information in their reviews. I would like other reviewers to mention this in their reviews. The feeling of the shoes is that the shoes were made to order for my feet. I have both Alpha and Trail 2.0 and can say that both shoes are excellent. It depends on what you're looking for in terms of performance. I would NOT recommend Alpha for a new user of minimalist shoes. Maybe top athletes who practice athletics, or ballerinas who are used to keeping on their toes. With minimalist shoes, you're forced to stay on the balls of your feet as you run. This is really the correct posture for running. Why do you think many Vibrams users who initially had knee pain while running or plantar fasciitis no longer have these problems. Vibrams for hardcore running. You use every muscle in your legs to run. If you are serious about running or want to start running, choose Vibrams. Explore each shoe type by visiting the Vibram website. Use Revain or the Vibram website to shop for shoes that match your ambitions. I run a lot on cement, so the Vibram Trail 2.0 suits me. Alphas also work well on cement. Maybe I'm used to the minimalistic feel that I don't mind the feel of cement. Running on grass with Alphas is phenomenal. Today I walked a bit on the grass. If you're not used to these shoes, let me warn you that your feet will be EXTREMELY sore after you run. When people walk in traditional shoes that don't properly train all muscles. The Vibram Trail 2.0 is a 5 star shoe in my opinion. Some of the reviews that give it less than 5 stars are for reasons that don't necessarily indicate the performance of the actual shoe. The Vibram Trail 2.0 are comfortable and secure [I've been wearing the previous Trails for years]. These aren't the most minimal running shoes (I think Aplhas) from Vibram. Once you get used to these shoes, you will NEVER go back to regular shoes.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • The list goes on.
