ah....

let me updates you!

Vibram FiveFingers now is available in Running Lab @ Tropicana City Mal...... can try it out there!

btw, i got my VFF Bikila from Singapore last year May. smile.gif

It's available in Novena Square the OutDoor sport shop, 2nd floor, purchased at SGD200 (include GST 7%) and claimed back the GST refund in airport...

Im just loving it for workout... but too bad, I'm still not use to it with running for more than 15KM...

There's NO WAY Vibram selling this RM250 cheap!

Singapore is the only authorised distributor for South East Asia!

It's just sound NOT RIGHT...

Anyways, no one will stop you from buying.

Im using ORIGINAL VIBRAM BIKILA... It's been a year plus... still in good condition.

Corezone doesn't carry fivefingers.

Saw it there but the other day I went, no one entertained me.
So eventually went back to Yellowstone aka Lafuma to get a pair of KSO TrekSport.

Whoever getting the RM250 deal on KSO for sure is getting the fake one. The fake one is 95% identical to real one, why I know, cause I am the victim. But should functionally the same. I from reliable source running feel is the same. Of course I don expect it to last but still holidng well until now.

Cheap thing aint real, real thing aint cheap for VFF. smile.gif

Hi all!

Running has been my primary form of exercise for many years, and recently I started having what I suspect is shin splints.

So I'm going to try out this VFF to see if my shin splints gets better.

Any of you know which store carries the most selection and choice of VFF? Is it Lafuma Bangsar, Running Lab Tropicana Mall or Celebrities Fitness?

Hi...

Er... mind you, VFF is not cheap cost about RM400++ to RM500 if you get from SG and managed claims 7% GST refund.

A simple solution would be running barefoot of soft ground like field in park, beaches...
You can try jog slowly on the field, on the grass to try out how's your running feel and ur shin splints.

If this show improvement over time, then you might consider getting VFF to run on road and farer... .

this just my 2cents.

Glad to see you been into running and know what's you are getting.

Bikila - specific design for running.

KSO - lot of runners use this before Bikila is born.

Now, Komondo - new improved model from KSO.

I have friend get the VFF from US store under RM300, as you know VFF did not ship outside USA, thus he using 3rd party forwarder services which uses US address and from there ship back to Msia.

It's up to individual on which channel to get VFF.

anyway, no comment on your mentioned stores in KL.

get to know 1 of LYN runner who buy VFF from US online. he was using 3rd party forwarder....

he brought online and sent to US address and from there shipped back to Msia for around RM300 plus.

what to do... if someone no access to internet and some 3rd party forwarder, he have to pay the price.

to be honest, it's not encourage to mentions you have a replica vibram online.

you will never know when you are inviting trouble to urself.

that's on serious side.
