[ NEW ON THE MARKET ] KELLI’S REVIEW FIVE FINGERS Five Fingers by Vibram are the closest thing to feeling like you are barefoot with the protection of a ﬂexible slip-resistant sole. Its unique individual toe pockets help strengthen and stretch foot muscles, improving balance and agility, and a tab in the back lets you customize the ﬁt. They can be worn in the water and can be used for a variety of sports. When your feet are in them, you get the sense that it’s natural and good for your toes to be separated versus scrunched together in a traditional shoe. www.vibramﬁveﬁngers.com, 978.318.0000 Boot Camps are Popular Now you can Profit Boot Camp ChallengeSM is a complete turnkey business model that produces immediate income for you and results for your members.
