Barefoot footwear designed for natural movement.
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. Built for men, women and kids, their barefoot shoes feature ultra-thin, puncture-resistant soles that let your feet move naturally, just as they’re meant to.
Vivobarefoot shoes and trainers offer lightweight, flexible designs that promote natural movement and ground feel. Featuring minimalist barefoot construction, these shoes improve stability, mobility and comfort, making them ideal for activities like calisthenics, bodyweight training and everyday wear.
As a B Corporation™ Certified brand, Vivobarefoot goes beyond footwear, driving genuine social and environmental change, creating products that support your wellbeing and help protect the planet. As a UK stockist of Vivobarefoot shoes and trainers, browse the selection at Healf.
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.
We usually recommend wearing socks with Vivobarefoot shoes for comfort and better foot health. 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 and purpose.
No, it’s best to avoid putting Vivobarefoot trainers in the washing machine. The washing machine can damage the bonding and materials, reducing their performance. Instead, clean them gently by hand with soapy water and a cloth.
