This week's latest VFF reviews includes a first review of the Moc!

  • Long-term use, and "Tribute" to Classic FiveFingers here at BirthdayShoes [Classics]:

    Given that most of our time is spent doing mundane, everyday things, the kinds of things that don't require a velcro strap, given that we are creatures of convenience and comfort, and finally that we desire the freedom of being barefoot but also need to find balance in a world with cultural norms (and broken glass), Classic fivefingers are must-have VFF model for any fan of this funky footwear. I know wouldn't give up my Classics for anything (and I want more).

    If you don't yet have a pair, you don't know what you're missing.

  • Review – Vibram FiveFingers Moc from LivingBarefoot.info [Moc]:

    This is another strong product from Vibram’s FiveFinger lineup. The Mocs are incredibly comfortable, pleasantly warm, and feel luxurious. They are the most pleasant feeling FiveFingers I have tested to date. They are appropriate for most indoor activities, and offer some protection and warmth in a comfortable package. More than any other FiveFingers model, these are truly gloves for your feet.

Last week's latest reviews are here.

About the Author — I founded BirthdayShoes.com in April 2009 on realizing just how much I enjoyed having "free feet" - I mostly wanted to use them for weights, sprints, and plyometrics (I'm not much of a runner!). I'm a Googler by day and minimalist footwear aficionado by night; you can find me 'round Atlanta.

MarneeI love my Performas and have worn them as my every day shoe for a couple of weeks. This means I wear them to work and shopping and whatnot. They are holding up nicely.

DeirdreeliseI just received my "violet"Performas from Travel Country,no waiting.I have to say they are more "cassis" than "violet" but I had to have them.Will have to have the black ones too at some point.A decadent foot indulgence for me...
