My Vibram Five Finger Shoe Site

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.
