A Vibram Five Fingers Introduction

by TonyDasilva on January 25, 2012

Vibram FiveFingers isn’t a product, it’s a community. And when we asked you to help us make a video introducing newcomers to Vibram FiveFingers, boy did you deliver.

By the end we had over a thousand submissions, and picking 100 finalists was no easy task.

This project just confirmed what we’ve known all along: we’ve got the best fans in the world. - Vibram
