Vibram Fivefingers Bikila

When I bought my first pair of Fivefingers, I barely run. Then I bought another pair... And another... And another...


Before you know it, I had 4 Fivefingers; that's likeTwenty Fingers... I had 2 Sprints and 2 Bikila. And still, I rarely run...


I bought all my Fivefingers from Vibram online. And if you want original, please don't bother with eBay. And if you don't know how to buy from USA, try ComGateway. Be warned, it's highly addictive.

Today I only have 2 pairs left; Bikila and Sprint; sold the rest. I alternate my Bikila with my Adidas when I run. The first time I ran in my Bikila, I had blister at the back of my foot. So I only run with socks now.


And since Injinji cost like RM50 a pair, and the RM5 ones at Daiso look too cheap, I spent RM19 at Sox World when I was walking around in 1U.


Another alternative is cheap socks with scissor.

Salomon XA Pro 3d Ultra 2

I'm a fairly outdoor person. But I never had hiking shoes. When I go camping or trek around to fish, I'll jus wear sandals or even slippers.
So since I'm running now, I may as well pick up trail running too. And since I'm going Mount Kinabalu on 31st January, I may as well get myself some nice trekking shoes. :-)
I was shopping around for Adidas, but the ones I like didn't have my size. So after much ding donging, I decided to go with Salomon.
They are a well established brand. They spend time and money to improve their products. Their designs are NICE. And they have a lot of RED.
I bought mine at World of Sports Subang Parade. Signed up for their membership which cost around RM40, and I got discounts of up to RM100. Considering possible future purchases, I think it was a good deal. Price was below RM500 after discount and membership fee.
I thought the Speedcross was cool, but the colors they had were just a bit too out there.
And I'm glad I didn't get the Speedcross because that would have made the Fellcross redundant!!
And also, I needed a proper tracking shoe that's rugged with the tracks and durable with the design. Nothing fancy; it's gotta scream Serious Business.
And after much walking in almost every Salomon models, I settled for the XA Pro 3d Ultra 2.
It was very comfortable. The color was perfect; 'serious' with my favorite red. Weight was just nice. It looks durable and not too bulky.
After a few runs with it, I'm proud to say, I Love Salomon.

Adidas Hydroterra Shandal

Saw them in Adidas Mid Valley. Look damn nice, and light. And the upper mesh is interesting, although a bit plasticky. Price slightly below RM300. Should be good for jungle trekking, stream crossing, etc.



Rugged tracks.



Step Down Contruction, turning the shoe into sandal. Adidas call it Shandal.



Here's an extract from http://backcountry.com

There is something unsettling about putting dry socks and shoes back on your wet feet after fording a stream. The amphibious Adidas Hydroterra Shandal Shoes move from land to water and back again, so you don't have to waste time taking your shoes on and off every time your trail hits the stream.

Single-layer mesh uppers are ultra-breathable and quick-drying, so wet feet dry fast. EVA footbed and sock liner provide cushioning and won't feel water-logged. Speed laces are secure and easy to adjust.

Bottom Line: Crossing streams doesn't have to require pit stops.

Extract from http://practicaltravelgear.com

They’re mesh water shoes that fit like sneakers, but are made to work well on slippery rocks and dry quickly when you’re done.
