Vivobarefoot shoes are one of my favorite shoes and ones I highly recommend. When I look for shoes for myself or to recommend to clients, I look for several features. First, the shoe should be flat or zero-drop which means the heel is not elevated above the front of the shoe and the toes don't curl upward. Second, I want the shoe to be foot-shaped which means being widest at the toes allowing natural toe splay. Third, I look for shoes that are flexible in all directions allowing normal foot function. Fourth, I look for minimal stack height which allows you to feel the ground under your feet giving you better proprioception and stability. Fifth, I want the shoes to be comfortable and stylish. Vivobarefoot shoes check all these boxes which is why I love them. Check them out here.
