The Vivobarefoot Primus is a road running, race-specific barefoot shoe that’ll help your performance excel. The shoes unique signature is that its full of properties that go beyond minimalism and out of that, will help you develop a more robust and durable foot that’ll be well prepared to take on more miles and faster paces. Meanwhile, the incredibly thin outsole ensures a steady supply of the sensory ground cues important in keeping your posture and footstep stability reflexes engaged at a much higher level, thereby strengthening your balance control and helping prevent mechanical slip-ups as compared with traditional running shoes.

"I believe the forefoot strike is the engine of endurance running..."
BSc Neurobiology; MSc Biomechanics candidate, ultra minimalist runner & founder of RunForefoot. I was a heel striker, always injured. I was inspired by the great Tirunesh Dibaba to try forefoot running. Now, I'm injury free. This is why I launched Run Forefoot, to advocate the health & performance benefits of forefoot running and to raise awareness on the dangers of heel striking, because the world needs to know.
