The Vivobarefoot Achilles Sandal is very much like a modern Huarache running sandal with its zero-drop, 3mm flexible rubber outsole that is very barefoot-simulating which allows you to move with optimal mechanical precision thats safe and efficient. The outsole is also puncture-resistant and is durable for all terrain, especially trails and grass and are ideal for obstacle course races because the sandals do not trap in water, mud or dirt!

"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.
