## Description

Train hard while treading lightly on the planet. The Primus Lite III is our hero trainer and its minimalist design lets your feet move in the most natural way possible. Building strength for every run, walk and workout.

Review: Absolutely great -- my 5th pair - This is my 5th pair of Vivos and is equally great. I cannot understand why some people complain about the very features that make these shoes unique: the width of the front part (which matches the real shape of the foot, with the toes naturally splayed) and the barefoot sensation when you walk.
Review: Do t be put off by some of the lower mark reviews - For those saying the toe box is too wide or too long, this is by design. I did think so myself but after doing some research and reading the website it’s clear that barefoot shoes, especially these from Vivobarefoot are designed to allow your toes to spread just as if you are walking without shoes. I’ve been wearing more than one pair for a couple of years now and have found them to be comfortable and hard wearing. I’m a size 9 in all other shoes that have good sizing and I have a size 9 for these too - Euro 43 I believe

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely great -- my 5th pair
*by S***E on 7 March 2026*

This is my 5th pair of Vivos and is equally great. I cannot understand why some people complain about the very features that make these shoes unique: the width of the front part (which matches the real shape of the foot, with the toes naturally splayed) and the barefoot sensation when you walk.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Do t be put off by some of the lower mark reviews
*by M***L on 19 August 2025*

For those saying the toe box is too wide or too long, this is by design. I did think so myself but after doing some research and reading the website it’s clear that barefoot shoes, especially these from Vivobarefoot are designed to allow your toes to spread just as if you are walking without shoes.
