Sizing
The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO is expected to fit true to size with laces and a mesh upper to accommodate to the specific volume of your foot.
Vibram Fivefingers uses EU gendered sizing and so the length between Men's and Women's will roughly be the same but the Men's sizes will fit slightly wider and higher volume and vice versa for Women's.
An important feature to note is the separated toes which cater towards a specific length and volume. This means that the shoes will only fit if your toes are the same shape as the shoe's toes. In addition, they favor a very strong slope shape toe box making the Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO less versatile for different foot shapes.
Fit Notes:
- The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO is not expected to stretch out
- The upper materials used in the shoe allow for some adjustability when it comes to the volume but overall they fit a medium volume foot
- The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO are most suitable for people with average to narrower feet
- The laces on the upper allow for a secure and snug fit adjusted to your preference
- The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO favor strong sloping shaped toe boxes
- Width in the forefoot area is: centered
Ground Feel
The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO offers some of the most ground feel you can get from a shoe with a total sack height of only 5 mm. This will allow you to navigate any terrain with optimal sensory feedback from the ground. The separated toes contribute to the increased mobility that allows for seamless foot movement.
If you are new to minimal shoes and used to thick, stiff soles, you may want to take it very slow in this model. It takes time to develop the mobility, strength, and gait required to use these shoes during any kind of movement. If you enjoy when shoes feel as close as possible to being barefoot, you'll likely enjoy the Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO.
Care
Vibram Fivefingers recommends machine washing the shoes on cold and then air drying afterwards. We recommend using a mesh laundry bag to wash them in to avoid unnecessary wear and tear, and to use the cold, gentle cycle on your machine. Handwash is also fine. Do not put them in the dryer.
Best Uses
The Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO are perfect for all kinds of athletic activities. They provide great support for functional firmness, plyometrics, primal movements, balance, and strengthening exercises. Get ready to take your workouts to the next level with these versatile shoes.
