Vivobarefoot Reviews

I’ve been wearing Vivobarefoot shoes for around 4 months now, i wasn’t totally sure at first if they were going to work for me. The first week was a bit rough because my calves were definitely sore, so I wondered if I’d made a mistake. But after sticking with them, my feet do feel stronger and less cramped. I think I’m also standing a little straighter without really trying, and I’ve had less lower back ache after longer walks. I wouldn’t say they’re some miracle shoe or anything, but for me they just feel more natural.

I had a small issue with my delivery update, so I reached out to customer service. They replied quickly and got it sorted without too much hassle!! It did take one extra email to clear everything up, but overall the support was really good. Would’ve been 5 stars if the first reply had included all the info.

I’ve been wearing these almost every day, the soles still look good. I’m not totally sure how they’ll hold up long-term, but so far they seem to be doing fine.

The return was just really quick and totally hassle-free. Easy experience overall.

I bought these Vivo boots mostly for winter walks, and they’ve been warmer than I expected. I was a little skeptical at first because barefoot shoes can look thin, but the insulation has been great. I’ve worn them in frost and light rain and my feet stayed comfortable without getting sweaty. The fit did take a few wears to get used to, but nothing major, and now I really like them

They showed up looking basically like the photos, from what I can tell. The color is accurate, though maybe just a little lighter when I looked at them in daylight. I haven’t really worn them around much yet, but the size and shape seem about what I expected.

I ordered a pair from Vivobarefoot after a friend recommended them, but the sizing just didn’t work for me. Sending them back was straightforward, though I did think the refund would show up a little sooner. I reached out to customer service and they got back to me, and the money came through a few days later. Not a flawless experience, but nothing too stressful. I’d probably order from them again.

I picked up these vivobarefoot shoes mostly for walking the dog, so they end up getting muddy almost every week. So far, they’ve been easy to deal with. I usually just wipe them down with a damp cloth or give the soles a quick rinse, and they look basically fine again. No major scrubbing or stains that seem to stick around. Overall, I’m really happy with them. It’s just nice having shoes that don’t feel like a whole project to clean.

I’ve taken my Vivobarefoot shoes out on a few hikes and trail walks now, at first I was into them. The ground feel is really nice, they’re super light, and on dry dirt or rocky paths the grip has been solid. I was walking along thinking, yep, these might be my new favorite trail shoes.
Then the mud showed up and my attitude changed real quick. On wet, muddy spots they felt a bit slippy, and sharp stones made my feet tire out faster than I expected. The thin sole definitely takes some getting used to. I don’t think they’re bad at all, but I’d be picky about where I wear them.

I wore these on a few warm days, my feet didn’t get all sweaty like they usually do. They seem to let air in well, which was a nice surprise. I was feeling mentally drained those days and didn’t want to deal with uncomfortable shoes on top of everything else, so I really appreciated that. They did take a little time to get used to, but overall I’m happy with them.

I’ve ordered from Vivobarefoot a few times now, and the best part is that they actually seem to have my size in stock, even in the colours I’m after. Checkout was straightforward too, with none of those annoying last-minute “out of stock” surprises. I’ve been really happy with the experience overall — and if they happen to send a little discount or thank-you my way for being a repeat customer, I definitely wouldn’t complain.

I mean, I’ve been using these for regular walks and some light trails, and they’ve been really solid overall. The grip feels great on dry ground and pavement, and I felt stable even on loose gravel. They can slip a little on wet, smooth floors, so they’re not perfect, but I’m still happy with them and would buy them again.

I’ve been walking in these every day, my feet feel way less tired now. They did take about a day to get used to, but after that, they’ve been really comfortable.

I was actually excited when these shoes arrived because I liked the idea of them and thought they might be a good comfy everyday pair. But when I pulled them out of the box and tried them on, they just looked different than I expected. They were a bit too wide and had this flatter shape that made them look kind of odd on my feet. I can see how they might be comfortable for someone, but style-wise they just weren’t working for me

They do move naturally and have that nice bendy feel, so at first I thought, okay, these should be good. I kind of went with the usual shortcut of assuming higher price means better comfort, but my feet got sore faster than I expected. For what they cost, I was hoping for more. Not totally bad, but I’m not sure I’d buy them again.

I bought these on a bit of a whim because I wanted that barefoot feel, and wow, they really delivered. You can actually feel the ground under you, but it’s not painful or uncomfortable. It took me a few walks to get used to them, but now when I put on my regular shoes, they feel super weird

These feel really stable when I’m lifting and they stay comfortable through my whole workout. I’ve been using them for training and they’ve been a solid choice...

I really like the whole idea behind vivobarefoot shoes, but the adjustment period has been a lot slower than I thought it would be. They felt odd at first, and even after just short walks, my calves were definitely feeling it. The quality seems good, so no complaints there, but they’re not exactly comfy right out of the box. I do think they probably get better once your feet and legs adapt, but for the price, I kind of expected the transition to be a little easier. Overall, they’re fine, not bad, but not something I’m blown away by either...

I was prepared for the usual waiting game, but the shipping was shockingly fast. One minute I placed the order, and the next it felt like it was practically at my door. Super impressed—thanks!

They fit true to size for me, just a little on the wide side... still comfy though
