A new “Vibram Paris Academy” opened its doors at 20, rue des Petits-Champs in Paris on Dec. 6. The 50-square-meter shop is Vibram's first in France, while it is the third in the world, after the Vibram “academies” in Athens and London. This store concept combines a selling area with a space where customers can have their shoes customized on site. The brand is already sold across France at around 2,000 shops.
