After hearing the rumors and catching a glimpse this past summer at Outdoor Retailer, I have finally managed to get my hands on (and feet into) the latest New Balance concoction: the Minimus Zero.
A video review of the VIVOBAREFOOT Neo Trail.
Besides Huaraches, never have I worn a shoe that has given my feet this much freedom. While many minimalist shoe companies are starting to get the toebox right, some of them are a little narrow through the mid foot. For most people this is probably fine. However, if you are like me and have a wide mid foot it can be problematic. The Sole Runner last not only provides a wide toebox, but ample room in the mid foot as well...
The Aqueous is an ankle high waterproof boot, currently only available as a men’s model. I purchased it for hiking but VIVOBAREFOOT describes it as a street boot. Find out how it fares on the trail and around town...
Compression wear caught my attention when Paula Radcliffe, woman world marathon record-holder, showed up on the racing circuit wearing compression knee-high socks. As a marathoner myself (though my running achievements weren’t ever going to make front page news), I wondered if wearing these could help improve circulation, reduce stiffness, relieve pain, etc. like the claims made by companies promoting such products.
