Running Shoes

Barefoot shoes are the new "it shoes."  The market was pretty well established before New Balance entered it. With the bar set high with the likes of Vibram FiveFingers and Merrell Barefoot, New Balance carved out a unique place for itself with their Minimus Shoes.

The New Balance Minimus is a hybrid minimalist shoe.  It is ultra light, has reduced padding in the sole, but unlike other barefoot style shoes, provides the type of support you would find in a high quality running shoe (while remaining true to the barefoot philosophy)...with a slightly raised heel.
