Overall impression
Vibram [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]’ new fall 2009 collection includes three new designs; we are pleased to review the Performa. I am thoroughly impressed with this new addition and find it an all around perfect indoor shoe. My feet and toes literally get the urge to dance while wearing them. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] has outdone itself with the Performas as they are extremely comfortable, are lighter weight than all their other shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and have extraordinary flexibility and comfort.
Comfort
These shoes are so comfortable, they feel like a second skin. The kangaroo leather is luxuriously soft against my toes and the tops and soles of my feet. While walking in the Performas,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my soles do not feel any stitching.
The only place where I feel them on my feet is on top of my foot along the first metatarsal bone where the elastic is attached to the vamp. It is not an uncomfortable feeling,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just an awareness of the material. The elastic,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with the convenient pull-tab,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], provides for an individualized fit that, once adjusted,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], can be a secured to the heel of the shoe with Velcro, a new addition to the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] lineup.
I am thoroughly pleased with the freedom of movement my feet and toes have in the Performas. I can bend my toes up and down and spread them out as wide as when completely barefoot. There is significantly more flexibility in the Performas compared to the Classics. My feet can bend in any direction,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unencumbered by the material of the shoe.
Uses
These shoes are for indoor use only. Although I realize that barefoot is best,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when barefoot is not appropriate or allowed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], these shoes are my first recommendation for an indoor shoe. These shoes would be ideal for any indoor activity where your feet’s soles may need a little added protection or traction; for example on any kind of carpet where activities demand twisting or any kind of hard surface where sweaty bare feet may lose traction. Suggested activities from [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] include yoga,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Pilates,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fitness training,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], martial arts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and dance.
Summary
The Performa is another impressive product from [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. This model evolved from feedback regarding the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] lineup and suggestions by their customers to develop an even more minimalistic indoor model. I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort and warmth of these shoes and I greatly appreciate the leather innovations included in the construction of these shoes. They are well ventilated yet warm,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], water resistant,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and have superior microbe protection. They have an unsurpassed barefoot feel and I intend to wear them as my indoor shoe of choice when barefoot may not be the best option.
