Vibram Five Fingers >

Welcome to Vibram fivefingers shoes world!

When Vibram founder Vitale Bramani invented the first rubber soles for mountaineering boots in 1935, it was the beginning of a revolution. More than 70 years later, Vibram is still known around the world as the undisputed leader in soling technology for a wide range of quality performance footwear. Today, Vibram manufactures more than 34 million soles annually for more than 1,000 premium footwear brands worldwide.

Vibram FiveFingers is the latest example of our relentless commitment to research and product innovation at Vibram. Industrial Designer Robert Fliri first proposed the idea of FiveFingers footwear to Marco Bramani, grandson of Vibram founder Vitale Bramani, who immediately embraced the concept. Soon, Fliri joined Vibram and began working with a team of footwear professionals and product engineers who helped him to refine and realize his vision. That original concept has evolved into a premium collection of barefoot performance footwear known simply as FiveFingers.

Vibram FiveFingers is a radically new paradigm that could only come from a company with our dedication to product innovation, integrity, and genuine performance.

VIBRAM is proud to attend to Expo 2010 Shanghai showing VIBRAM FiveFingers, its revolutionary barefoot product that better underlines the knowledge in foot biomechanics and walking technology. FiveFingers is the perfect proof that VIBRAM is really a step ahead in inventing and designing solutions targeting new trends and attitudes.

VIBRAM is also proud to be one of the sponsors of the Italian pavilion, because the company meets the Country values and history, based on respect for the past and looking into the future, through innovation, creativity and a long lasting faith in the human friendship.

During Expo 2010 Shanghai VIBRAM will also sponsor a major event to underline the strong partnership with Italian, international partners and especially Chinese authority and exhibition visitors.
