My three year old Avi has had a couple months to test out the Merrell Barefoot Flux Gloves for Infants and Toddlers* — she’s worn them almost exclusively (even setting aside her custom kid’s “la-laches” — huaraches by Xero Shoes). Merrell provide…
The Lontra could be described as a ‘roid-raging KSO — outfitted with the most aggressive 4mm rubber, “lightly cleated” “Trek” outsole + 4mm EVA midsole and a wholly new water-resistant, tri-layered upper that’s topped off with a very aggressive ankle cuff to seriously keep stuff out.

The Vibram FiveFingers Speed XC started hitting retailers two weeks ago. I got my pair only a few days back and have been scrambling trying to clobber together an initial review of them.

Any day now the (new for Fall 2012) Vibram FiveFingers SeeYa LS will hit the shelves. When it does, you can expect to hear it here first — you might as well know that one retailer is already taking pre-orders with an expected ship date of October…
I have liked the stylish, Wallaby-esque look of the Vivo Barefoot pretty much from the first day I saw them some three years ago.
For that matter, I got my first pair of Oaks back in 2010 and did a “first look” on them here. Fast-forward and I pic…
