Vibram Five Fingers Jaya LR vs. Jaya

Vibram Five Fingers Jaya LR vs. Jaya

There are not major differences between the Jaya LR and the Jaya.
The body of the two pairs of shoes are really the same but Vibram wanted to spice up the LR alittle and added fancy leather stripes across the top. These leather stripes make the shoe more dressy vs athletic. The rest of the shoes are the same but the LR also had some padding removed from the heel.
