Hi everyone its Bretta Riches from RUN
Forefoot.com and today I'm going to be
doing a minimalist running shoe review
forefoot running. I'm going to be talking
to you about the vibram fivefingers
Bikila EVO. When your feet thrive your
running form thrives as well. Not only
that when you can feel the ground you
can focus better on your forerfoot strike
landing when you run helping you and
more cautiously and when you can fully
perceive and feel the ground and be
fully conscious of how your foot's interaction
with the ground when you run, this is a
strong stabilizing force to help you run
strong and steady and this is why i
really liked the Vibram FiveFingers Bikila Evo
not only for the shoes ability
to protect and strengthen your feet but
the Bikila EVO is a zero drop, grippy
long-distance running shoe that has a
long-standing record of reducing runners
knee, improving symptoms of plantar
fasciitis, alleviating shin splints as
per anecdotal reports all over the web
Llimited support features in the Bikila
Evo's makes them more qualified as a
clinical tool to improve abnormal
biomechanics, restore your foot function
at its best, better posture
alignment when you walk and run and
Overall, results in less stress on the
feet because the barefoot-nature of
Bikila Evo's stimulates healthy
structural changes within the feet. In
addition the outsole of the VFFs
Bikila Evo is super thin but
it's not as thin as the VFFs
kso classics but it is still
thin enough to amplify sensory input or
sensory feedback at the foot which is
what your feet are actually thirsty for
as the strengthening of the intrinsic
musculature within the foot is heavily
reliant on tactile or sensory
stimulation on the nerves that line the
bottom of the feet. This heightened
sensory awareness at the feet is going
to make it much easier for you to run
with better forefoot strike accuracy
when you run with low-level impact
patterns. You can feel pebbles and other
ground characteristics so these shoes do
deliver clear ground-feel. The
shoes are also a good alternative
representation of running barefoot. What
can be the VFF Bikila Evo's
be worn for ? The vibram fivefingers
Bikila EVO re durable for running long
distances on the roads so you can easily
wear these shoes for the marathon and
even longer distances as well as shorter
distances. Many wear-[ testers love the
vibram fivefingers Bikila Evo for 10 km
and half-marathon distances
they are also good for trail running but
how does the Bikiola EVo compared to
other be from five finger running shoes
the bikini Evo's are an upgrade of the
bieber fivefingers makela LS because the
vibram fivefingers tequila Evo's are
more durable in the outsole in the upper
as well according to anywhere testers
the tequila evil was rated one of
vibrams most comfortable endless running
shoes next to the beam five fingers kso
classic of Aquila evil are lighter
thinner and more flexible than the
bieber fivefingers Komodo sports tequila
Evos has eight millimeter maximum
outsole thickness which is thinner fan
from AMD evo which is V bronze marathon
shoe became to eva has an 11 millimeter
underfoot protection the key level is
made of thicker materials on the upper
the upper is made of heavier thicker
material so you can look forward to
wearing the bikini Evo's for running and
cooler weather
despite the thickness and toughness of
the upper be picky Evo's upper is still
stretchy so it wraps comfortably and
conforms over your unique foot structure
so they fit well if you have white feet
or a bunion the upper is made of a
polyester mash which is why upper is so
flexible is also tear resistance
especially at the toes the upper also
has some 3m reflective strips so you
stand out more when you run at night
releasing cord makes the issue here you
take on an easy to take off
overall the shoe fits like a glove just
like most vibram fivefingers running
shoes the key labels can be worn for not
only running on pavement and running on
wet pavement as well but you can wear
the bikini levels for running on the
treadmill cross-country running walking
boating weight training they're so light
it feels like you aren't even wearing
anything on your feet depending on the
size the tequila Evo's way about 4.2
announces their super durable so you can
at least get about 400 miles without
showing any signs of wearing you're
tearing on these shoes the toe sockets
are slightly wider so they're great if
you have wide toes
overall the thinness of the tequila evil
provides good ground field which will
really help you get the most out of your
running one of the most important
qualities of the tequila evo is that
they have zero stability support and
motion control features so they don't
have any type of possibility elements
wearing a shoe that does not immobilize
your feet improves your foot strength
and will fundamentally advance your foot
health making the tequila evil a
sustainable solution to reshape your
feet treating foot pain strengthening
and heightening collapse arches your
arches will get stronger if they are
being supported one of the major things
that really sets the demon five fingers
apart from traditional running shoes is
that their ability to prevent and help
common running related injuries
according to wear testers tequila Evo's
has helped with back pain pain plantar
fasciitis and me pain and I find that a
very helpful sign that the key level can
do the same for you and I know you will
reach the same conclusions if you try
these shoes of Aquila evil really sets a
president for being a complementary
asset to the human foot by activating
your feet not deactivating your feet
like the traditional running shield
based on the high injury rates and
runners traditional running shoes
clearly have an impressive record of
delivering real results traditional
running shoes have no place in our human
evolution hence why running injuries are
high and those who wear them because the
traditional running shoe causes you to
lose muscle power over time in your feet
which of course limits you're running
performance and progress
thankfully runners can liberate
themselves from chronic running injuries
with the barefoot inspired running shoes
like from Aquila Evo's which create a
more natural climate for your feet to
restore their natural functionality for
