Good price, good product, especially the flexible laces are welcome
Reviewer Raymond Ooi
My fault that I didn’t get the 10.5 wide. I re-ordered and got the right ones.
Reviewer Katherina Bablenis
I am so happy these hit the mark. Excellent purchase!
Reviewer Brad McNeely
They fit perfect, really light
Reviewer JULI
My husband loves these shoes. They are well made and comfortable. However, the fit is about 1/2 size smaller than the chart suggests. They are also a narrow width for a "D". You might want to consider a "E" width.

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.)

They were alright/good for the first 6 months. There are two things I don't like about this shoe. They used a pink open cell foam under the insole that will get very petrydish like if/when you replace the insole. I wish they used closed cell foam and used a built in antimicrobial like microban silver phosphate. The tread makes a squeeling sound when walking on ceramic tile/marble it's somewhat embarrassing when your the only one with squeeking shoes at work. They are comfortable easy to put on I just wish they fixed those things & generally designed it to last longer instead of being a throw away item.

I ordered these for a Christmas gift for our son and they came very quickly and in great shape. They look great and fit like a charm. Vendor did a very good job getting them out so fast and they are brand new for a good price.
Reviewer Ziraben
Great shoe very good fit
Reviewer Mary Kathern Horn
Again, very good looking but very narrow fitting, especially for "wide".
