On a trip to Provo Utah this past Saturday I leisurely repaired my Vibram Five Finger KSO’s. Today was my first run since the repairs were made. I did a fast and hard 10 mile run on both trails and asphalt. I have photographed the results of my repair job for all to see.
As you can see the toe is holding up quite well. I wish I could say that for the hole in the inside of the toe.
As you can see the repair is holding, but the fabric is so thin that it is disinegrating. 
I also sewed up the heal area and you can see that it has held up well, but now the stress has caused the fabric to open a hole above where the repair was made. Anyway see you all on the trail.

I was wondering how you made the stitches…it’s only my 4th day with my brand new KSO’s and they’ve got a tiny hole on the upper fabric of the middle toe.
Thanks!

If the seam came undone within four days of use and its not because of abrasion I would take them back to the store you bought them from. Have them warranty the shoe. I believe Vibram has a quality control problem with its seams. If this is just a pain in the but to do, then repair them. I just used a simple looping action. I tied the knot so that it would be on the bottom of the seam I was repairing Starting at one end of the hole in material that had not seperated I looped down then up using tight stitching, as if I was trying to put the thread next to the last loop. It is not hard and you will figure it out quickly. I hope that helps,
