Vibram Fivefingers Spyridon LS Mens Hiking Shoes Military Green/Grey/Black (M4125), 43 Review

I bought these specifically for trail running and they're good but not the best VFF option out there. I really like the sole, but I'm not a fan of the upper. I think they should ditch the laces and make a version of these that just have the straps. I've tried a few other VFF models for trail running and these are good but not the best. Here's a head to head comparison of both the soles and uppers of Spyridons vs. other models.

Soles:
The Spyridon sole has a very rough tred that makes it ideal for running in mud and loose dirt, provides a lot of traction.

Spyridon LS vs Komodosport: The Komodosport have a lightweight sole but offer very little traction in mud. I bought the Spyridon specifically for its treds and it really delivers in that department. They get excellent traction on a variety of surfaces. The spyridon also has much better rock protection. Winner: Spyridon.

Spyridon LS vs Treksport: These are really similar in terms of the amount of traction they afford, but the Spyridon sole is a lot more flexible than the Treksport. The Spyridon seems to do a slightly better job of rock protection, but again it's still pretty close. Winner: Spyridon.

Uppers:
The Spyridon upper only comes in the "LS" variety, meaning that it has laces instead of straps. I really wish there was a strappy option. The laces are short enough that you don't get much room to adjust them, and just below the laces there's a leather band that prevents the shoe from stretching properly if you have a wide forefoot.
Another drawback to the laces is that there's nothing stabilizing your heel. If you make the compromise I do of buying shoes that are the right width but a little bit too long, expect your feet to slide back and forth a little bit. Hello blisters.

The material composing the upper is also very thick and stays wet longer than I would care for.

Spyridon LS vs Komodosport: The Komodosport are still without a doubt the best upper on any pair of VFFs I've tried. They fit snugly and the dual straps are a killer. A shoe with the Spyridon sole and the Komodosport upper would be the ultimate trail running shoe. Winner: Komodosport.

Spyridon LS vs Komodosport LS: They're pretty similar from what i remember. I took my Komodosport LS back after one run, and traded them in for the regular Komodosport, because the upper sucked so bad. I share that same sentiment for the Spyridon LS. It's a tie.

Spyridon LS vs Treksport: The Treksport upper is light and breathable, dries quickly, but it lacks the dual straps of the Komodosport. Still miles better than the Spyridon.

So I'm going to say again, the Spyridon sole with a Komodosport upper would be the perfect trail running shoe. Get on that, Vibram.

Until then I'm sticking with the Komodosport except for rare circumstances where the Spyridon sole is necessary.
