Five fingers did me wonders. I don't run in them exclusively as they take some getting used to for longer runs. They certainly force you to run carefully and to watch your footstrike. I have had a couple of issues that I hope will be changed in the new models -
First the stitching came undone on mine - maybe as the sizing was hard to judge and I got some that are slightly too small.
Second - How do you get the stink out of them! Washing doesn't seem to do much.
Just finished my first marathon and I am going to return to training only in VFFs and see if my next marathon in september will be possible wearing them.
