Ed Takes his FiveFingers Flow Treks out in the Snow

hi, took a few pics of my flow treks in the snow in the UK, after a run.

the flow treks seem pretty good so far, they take some breaking in, but once that's done they work quite well. you can't really bend your toes downwards in them like you can in KSO's though. so far they seem quite good for cold and wet weather use, they grip much better than KSo's in wet mud. i did start to lose the feeling in my toes towards the end of the run though.

thanks,

ed

Thanks, Ed!  One of these days I'll do a toe bend comparison across all the models.  Needless to say you get the most flex in the Mocs, then the Classics/Sprints, the KSOs, and the KSO Treks.  I haven't tried the Flows out yet, but I'd guess they're in between the KSOs and KSO Treks with the Flow Treks bringing up the rear as most resistant to toe contraction.

Sorry, that was a mouthful.

Glad to hear you're getting to test out the Five Fingers Flow Treks!  I know many people over here in the States would like to grab a pair for cold-weather use.
