The fit is decent, very low top - the color in person is a little washed out, which you can see in the pictures. It's just that you don't realize how desaturated the color is until you're wearing them and that isn't necessarily a bad thing it's just something I didn't think about until I saw them in person - I actually think I prefer it. I'd love them if they were just a tad darker and more "true" red but that is my preference not the fault of the product.

I bought them for my father for Father's Day he said it's the best pair of shoes he's ever owned. He loves them

I now have 4 pairs, fit comfort and wear are perfect.
The price is more then worth it. Finally a shoe wide enough and
adjusts to high archs on my large foot. Blends with sport to dress
casual.

Very comfortable and nice fitting. Very happy with the product.

In my experience, Vivobarefoot has created one of their best shoes yet with the Primus Lux. I have been enjoying the Indigo version for a couple of weeks. Out of over a dozen pairs, it is the most comfortable and best feeling Vivobarefoot shoe I own, requiring zero break-in. The glove soft, finely perforated, unlined leather top allows my foot to breath and feels wonderful against my bare feet. In truly hot weather, nothing beats a sandal or bare feet for coolness, but I think I'll be able to wear this shoe all summer without a sock liner.
I also have the Stealth 2 Lux with this same outsole, which is my favorite of the various types by Vivobarefoot. Somehow, It feels even better in the Primus Lux, perhaps due to the thin leather footbed. This is a very flexible shoe which seems to have a tad less internal volume than most other models, but it fits fine since I don't have a "thick" foot. The tongue is not too long and does not rub the tendon on top of my foot where it bends up to my leg.
The upper wraps snugly around my ankles and heel, yet doesn't feel tight. This has the unexpected benefit of making it hard for those little pebbles that are seemingly everywhere to bounce into the shoe, irritating my bare feet. With most other low-top shoes, this minor annoyance sometimes makes me have to stop frequently and take off my shoes to empty the pebbles. For this reason, though I love my Xero Z-Trail sandals, I avoid wearing them in many kinds of terrain because I constantly have to stop and dislodge pebbles and other debris stuck between my feet and the top of the footbed.
For me, the Primus Lux is an attractive shoe that I can wear almost anywhere. I like how the subtle "V" logos are embossed in the same color, rather than made of contrasting dots as with the related Primus Trio model. The glued (not sewn) outsole has tasteful, wavy undulations where it meets the side of the shoe. Up front, this gives the appearance of a slightly flat front toe cap, but it is actually rounded.
As for the white sole color, I realize that white soles are very popular now for athletic and casual shoes. I like it, but would prefer a dark blue or black color for the simple reason that those colors don't show dirt and grime like white does. Perhaps Vivobarefoot will be good enough to offer this fine shoe in all black? A medium-toned red top with the white sole would probably be popular, too.
I am glad Vivobarefoot continues to innovate and offer barefoot, minimalist shoe enthusiasts so many attractive and functional shoe choices.
Thanks for reading.
(Btw, I purchased these from Vivobarefoot at regular price.)

My husband wore these so much till they were falling apart but that been like 3 years now. I wish I could find a woman's pair with the pocket on the side like this that I like. I would love to have a pair for myself.

Reviewer E MCKINNEY
Love these shoes, supper comfortable. If you are going for long 3 mile plus walk running shoes are more comfortable, but for everyday wear these are great.
Reviewer Kristy Brown
These shares are a classic look and similar to other See Vee's shoes I have purchased. They meet my expectations and the price was reasonable.
