I have personally convinced or persuaded at least 4 people to get these five finger shoes over the past year by just wearing my shoes everywhere. I think that everyone who has these ends up converting some friends into believers of the shoe. A few days ago, my friends came over and guess what. We had more Vibram Five Finger shoe wearers than regular shoe wearers! So I snapped a quick photo.
Vibram Five Fingers are taking over the world!!!

It was bound to happen, but after 3 months my shoe developed holes in the top of the toes region. I don’t know how they got there. I don’t remember hitting or kicking anything. I was worried that these holes would get bigger and bigger like a small chip in the windshield and eventually ruin my five fingers shoes. So I took action. While this is not the prettiest fix, it certainly worked. I took some Plumber Goop, which you can get from Home Depot or Lowes and put a dab right into the hole.

I did a better job on the hole on the left. The one on the right I put too much. These pictures were taken about 3 months after I did the repair. As you can see, the holes have not enlarged and my shoes are still full functional. And honestly, I can redo it if I wanted, but I’m almost at one year on these shoes and it’s time for a new pair.
