The Vibram Five Fingers Trek Ascent LR is zero-drop (0-mm heel-to-toe differential) and is one of the best trail minimalist running shoes for the winter. It goes way beyond being winter-proof. It is full rock-protected and made of kangaroo leather/hemp, keeping your toes toasty, especially when paired with toe socks. My full review here!

"I believe the forefoot strike is the engine of endurance running..."
BSc Neurobiology; MSc Biomechanics candidate, ultra minimalist runner & founder of RunForefoot. I was a heel striker, always injured. I was inspired by the great Tirunesh Dibaba to try forefoot running. Now, I'm injury free. This is why I launched Run Forefoot, to advocate the health & performance benefits of forefoot running and to raise awareness on the dangers of heel striking, because the world needs to know.
