Currently running outdoors in my Vibram Spyridon LS's outside. When I go to the gym i normally just use the elliptical or a bike. Anybody using Vibrams on a treadmill? If so what kind and have you had any issues. I love running outside but when the weather is bad I like the other option, my Vibram's are more for outdoor running and trekking so am interested in a pair just for the gym... any ideas?** preferably something that can breath so I don't get really sweaty feet*

    I use my vibram KSO's on the treadmill. I only had problems before I corrected my running posture, have no problems at all now. the thin soles of the KSO's heat up slightly where I land on my outer foot but it isn't annoying, it actually makes the shoe fit better.

    I just bought a pair of Altra brand zero drop shoes. They are a minimalist shoe, but will still offer you some support for the treadmill. I use mine exclusively for my treadmill runs.
