If you have done any shopping online or in a store for FiveFingers, you have probably heard about the Injinji Socks. The Injinji Socks have individual toes, like the FiveFingers, and are specially designed to be worn with FiveFingers. There are three main reasons to buy and wear Injinji Socks with your FiveFingers.
1. Skin protection - Injinji socks are great for people with sensitive skin and blister problems. The Injinji Socks provide you with extra protection between your toes, preventing skin on skin rubbing. They also add an additional layer between you and the ground, helping your feet transition to barefooting in your FiveFingers.
2. Warmth - For those who like to run or walk in cold weather, the Injinji Socks are the best way to provide warmth to your feet while wearing FiveFingers. Normal socks can not be worn with Vibrams because of the toe pockets.
It is important to keep your feet warm when running or walking so you do not lose circulation. Also, if you live in a colder climate, a pair of Flow's and Injinji socks will have you running outdoors and "barefoot" with no problems.
3. Better Fit - Some of you may have a slightly loose fit and are looking for a way to fill out your FiveFingers a little more. The Injinji Socks may be your answer as they will give you a slightly (and we mean slightly) tighter fit. For the most part, Injinji's will not make your FiveFingers feel too tight, but they may help those with a slightly loose fit. Experiment with these socks and go with what feels the most comfortable. As a general rule, you don't need to size up on VFF's to allow for Injinji socks.
