Barefoot footwear designed for natural movement, foot strength, and improved balance.
Founded in 2012 by Galahad and Asher Clark, seventh-generation cobblers, Vivobarefoot redefines footwear with minimalist designs that reconnect you to the ground beneath your feet, promoting natural biomechanics, improved posture and long-term foot health. Built for men, women and kids, their barefoot shoes combine wide, anatomically shaped toe boxes, ultra-thin flexible soles and zero-drop construction to let your feet move and work more naturally.
Vivobarefoot shoes and trainers offer lightweight, flexible designs that promote natural movement and ground feel. Featuring minimalist barefoot construction, these shoes are designed for stability, mobility and comfort, making them ideal for activities like calisthenics, bodyweight training, running, hiking, and everyday wear.
As a Certified B Corporation™, Vivobarefoot is pushing footwear towards a more circular future, using lower impact materials and extending the life of worn shoes through ReVivo, its refurbishment and resale platform.

Vivobarefoot trainers should fit securely but comfortably, with enough room for your feet to naturally expand, especially in the toe box. The fit should feel snug around the heel and toes, but there should be some space in front of your toes for natural movement and toe splay.
We usually recommend wearing socks with Vivobarefoot shoes for comfort and better foot health, especially when first transitioning to barefoot footwear. Socks can help improve the fit and reduce odours. However, if you prefer not to wear socks, that’s okay too.
Yes, some Vivobarefoot shoes are water-resistant. Shoes made from leather naturally resist water, but those with mesh may not handle very wet conditions as well. The level of water resistance depends on the specific shoe style, materials, and intended activity, such as hiking or everyday wear.
If you’re used to highly cushioned or supportive shoes, give your feet time to adjust. Start with shorter periods of wear and build up gradually as your feet adapt to the increased movement and ground feel. There’s no need to rush it; Vivobarefoot asks more of the muscles in your feet than conventional shoes.
