We've all voiced concerns about Vibrams recent focus on expansion rather than on their current line-up. I figured it was time to stop waiting for something to change. I created a petition for Vibram to show them what their repeat customers are interested in. I'm hoping to get about 250 signatures before sending it to Vibram.

Good idea. I am tired of sub-standard quality and design flaws (KSo strap, trek glue, trek toe tread) while they still roll out new products wihtout fixing what's wrong.   Angry

Thanks for the petition. It's a great platform for the many of us who have struggled with VFF quality lately.

The Vibram quailty issues have changed how I pruchase my VFFs. I now either buy locally and inspect for defects myself, espeically the too thin sole defect, or I have to buy online from a site that I can contact and get them to personally look for defects. This saves me the trouble of getting new VFFS and find they have defects and then sending them back. Such a pain!  Angry

Now you have to assume that all VFFs are defective until proven otherwise. Sad

Whoops. I also don't like that petition site. I can't see who's signed.

Sorry Hawkeye, it just looked the best done when I googled petition sites. Maybe I should shopped around but it looked pretty good to me.
