They are the lightest, thinnest, most breathable, least supportive, and most minimal versions available. Yet they are durable and rugged enough to protect you from basically anything you'd want to walk across.
One of my best reasons for having the shoe is having zero heel to toe drop, as all of my other shoes had significant heel lift in it (6 mm-10 mm difference). This helps improve posture significantly because it keeps your feet flat on the ground instead of having some plantar flexion (which tightens your peroneus calf muscles and restricts ankle dorsiflexion mobility). I also like how the individual toe pockets force the toes to remain separated as I wore very narrow shoes before. There is plenty of room for my feet to spread out as I have wide feet too.
My arches are a little bit stronger than before the switch. My feet are much freer than before and I experience less hip and back pain when walking because I land less on my heel and push off with my toe faster and easier. I've also tested these shoes for deadlifting and squatting-they have enough grip to stabilize me and are also as close to the ground as can be to ensure maximal hip drive.

Do you wear Vibram Five Fingers? Do you find them beneficial?

Yeah I do! Just got into them maybe 3 or 4 months ago. They helped me realize that my shin splints and knee pain weren't coming from the running itself, but the terrible heel-first stride. They're the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, and I've all but entirely replaced my normal shoes with them now. I also think they've helped me with my self-confidence. As I started out wearing them, I was looking around for people laughing at my silly toe shoes. After a bit, but I realized that most people weren't paying attention to my shoes, and I shouldn't let strangers affect my happiness. I've gotten several surprising compliments from random people too, which never hurts. tl;dr A+ 10/10 best shoes. V-Treks or V-Alphas on my to-buy list next.

I got a pair of EL-X two weeks ago, following your review (plus a little bit more research). I run both on and off road 5-10 km per day, 7 days a week. EL-excellento! They make your feet feel alive (note of caution: transition carefully from high heeled trainers through to minimal shoes then barefoot). Cheers Grow and Healthy.

Helpful insight, thanks! I've had the KSO's for about 8 years now, and I'm trying to pick a second pair. I think I'll give the EL X a try.

I have been struggling with my flat feet my entire life. I play basketball, volleyball and Do crossfit. I hated the fact the my flat feet was limiting me from jumping or squatting properly. Even though my body adapted to my flat feet, I still feel that my feet is limiting me. Could you please do a video about: 1- squatting with flat feet 2- increasing vertical jump with flat feet. And keep doing what you are doing. 👍

Would you recommend going up a size from KSO Evos? These look great for everyday walking around. Thanks!
@GrownandHealthy
@GrownandHealthy 3 года назад
You can try, with Amazon's lenient return policy. Vibrams seem to be a hit or miss, in sizing...but if a size up leaves your pinky to in limbo, get a half size smaller.

I've just bought kso-evo which came too big. They only have el-x in my size. I would mostly use them for powerlifting: deadlifts and squats. Would el-x work for me? I'm a total beginner in barefoot, I'm afraid they have too little support for me and maybe and my foot will move inside it, they will be too loose. Should I wait for kso-evo? Though I love to deadlift completely barefoot, with only socks on... Both sumo/conventional.
@GrownandHealthy
@GrownandHealthy 3 года назад
I would not buy the El-x for deadlifts, they do not have any lateral support..the shoes will roll outside and over...the grip is great, but the sock upper can't withstand the lateral force. The Evo's are better because of the laces providing upper stability. Check my wrestling shoe reviews and if you are purchasing soon, I would also recommend the Reebok mid tr powerlifting shoes, which were just re-released. They are phenomenal lifting shoes in a conventional shape.

which of the two are good for regular running on sidewalks and on trademills. i run 20 - 30 minutes a day and play squash. which one would you recommend
@GrownandHealthy
@GrownandHealthy 6 лет назад
Of the two.. If you mean the El-X's or the KSO EVO's for squash, which involves a lot of lateral movement, I would suggest the KSO EVO's the lacing provides for better bracing in lateral movements and if you sweat a lot , I would also wear them with socks, like Injinji

Can you do squats and lunges without any problems with the el x? Do they slip?
@GrownandHealthy
@GrownandHealthy 4 года назад
Yes, to a certain load, maybe 225 lbs, but for more lateral stability, I would choose the KSO EVO
