Hello All,
A few days ago, I got my first pair of VFFs. While they are very interesting to run in, and I feel like I am getting a better workout in them than shoes – I am not a fan of the fit…
After reading through all the numerous guides out there – I decided to go with the pair that would fit my larger foot. While the larger foot fits great – the other foot kinda has some slack and is annoying!
After remeasuring my feet throughout the week I have found the difference in my feet length is constantly more than 1/6" – the maximum difference that Vibram suggests when buying fivefingers. My difference is 1/4" – a whole fivefinger size. – the only solution appears to be getting another pair in the smaller size….
Researching more about this phenomenon – I find that 60% of the people out there have one foot noticeably bigger than the other.
Long story short – I was thinking I could start a venture where I could offer Vibram Five Fingers by the foot – you could order one size for one foot and one size for another. In the end, they would cost 35-50% more but thats better than paying 100% more.
I am just seeing if this idea would pan out – and see if there would be any interest?
Thanks!,
Bob
