Wow! News at birthdayshoes.com ...There is a new kids on the block for minimalist shoes...This time is FILA and its called Skele-toes....one glance at it and is....definitely Vibram FiveFingers look-alikes
Birthdayshoes.com gives a good sneak preview of it and you can read it HERE.
And certainly interesting to see the pricing to be much cheaper than VFF at cometshoes.com with wider variety of colours .
Vibram is master of making rubber outsoles...thus I do not think Fila's skele-toes outsole can be as durable as Vibram....but..no harm trying if it is available
But...will Fila Singapore bring them in???

Merrell Minimalist Shoes coming to Singapore!!!
At least, the price is more reasonable than VFF & Terra Plana in Singapore.....
I wonder if RSH is willing to offer a pair for me to do review on it since I have ran 82km in MR trail with Vibram FiveFingers Treksports during last year MR25 Ultra...It will be a good comparison between 2 minimalist shoes....my email is insanetaz@gmail.com....hmmmmmmmm :-p

Barefoot shoes making splash in 2011
Just like the tablets are going to make a splash in the consumer electronic world, the Minimalist Running Shoes are going to try and invade the billion $$ traditional running shoes market.
Below are few which are coming out soon in 2011 :

The Tara Lite for men takes the best aspects of the Tarahumara sandal and adds the protection, stability and traction benefits of our Class I trail runners.
