We saw these at OR last summer and hadn’t really thought about them until recently. They are pretty cool and while they probably won’t have much of a direct application for most of us, they look like a great idea for something to throw on during the off-duty hours to let the dogs breathe. What sets the FiveFingers apart from similar footwear is their five toed “barefoot” design.
The photo above depicts the FiveFingers Flow which serve as an excellent water sock as the upper is 1.2mm Neoprene. Additional models include the Classic‘s minimalist design with an anti-microbial foot bed and abrasion-resistant stretch polyamide upper. Additionally, the KSO designed to “Keep Stuff Out” with its higher top and fore and aft closure. And last but not least is the Sprint, featuring a low top and secure fit.
They are available in a variety of colors depending on the model including camo.
