Closest feel to Vibram Five Fingers?

Try Mizuno Wave Universe 4. I have posted impressions on several recent threads.

I would try a merrel pace glove or roads glove.

Personally I find the arch support and springy cushioning in the Wave Universe to be too much but everyones feet are different.

Edit i should have read the original post.

Maybe try something like a Luna Sandal or Harraches

I logged on to tell you the MT10 Minimus do NOT feel like five fingers, but looks like you already know that. So I'll just second your opinion.

To others comparing the two this is not a knock on the MT10 by any means. I actually love mine and prefer them to vibrams, but they are not like running barefoot

Try the Altra Adams. I think they may be what your looking for. I did not care for taking the VFF s on and off and I needed to use toe socks to prevent blisters. The Adams have plenty of space for toe splay.

Softstar has some interesting choices now. with 2mm or 5mm soles. http://www.softstarshoes.com/running-moccasins.html

I like the Dash better than the original, but they even have some slip on ones now, which I haven't tried. I like them much better than the Trail gloves or the Five fingers.
