Inov-8 Evoskin = Vibram Five Fingers Imitation?

[ad#square-middle]

I came across this new product that looks so much alike the Vibram Five Fingers which just recently launched here in the Philippines, well actually they both looks like my foot.

Evoskin is the name of this product and is manufacture by Inov-8 (www.inov-8.com), it is made of silicone and weighs only 3.5 ounces per foot. With only silicone between you foot and the ground the Evoskin shoes are expected to behave just like your second skin, no cushioning, no support, your body is the one expected to absorb each and every impact.

For barefoot fanatics, what do you think about this pair of shoes? Forgive me for the term, but these shoes looks like condoms for the foot :’D.

Expected to be released in the US on February 2011, priced at $65 per pair.
