Amazing comfort. They may seem a bit tight when you first put them on, but as the memory foam adapts to the bottom of your foot the fit is great for me.
Reviewer N Bissell
The fit, construction and materials all seem first rate. I enjoy a 3 mile walk several times a week & Adidas Strutter Crosstrainers seem to breathe better than my old faithfuls. Cushioning is good.

Christmas gift for my son. He wears a size 15. He says they are very comfortable and really likes them. Thank you for carrying these shoes in larger sizes which are hard to find.
Reviewer Why Not Dream
Not a bad shoe. Fit well & true to my size. They were a bit slippery when I first wore them, but after a few errands they were good. This company goes above & beyond to ensure your satisfaction—thanks guys

My second pair of the Walker and this time I went with high tops. Beautiful, comfortable and great all around. I do size down 1/2 size, or wear my dress shoes size, and the fit is great. There is some loose grain in the leather, but I don't get caught up in that stuff.
Reviewer craig kittles
the size was perfect and very comfortable, i am on my feet 10 hours a day and they feel great all day long.
Reviewer David Flitterman

My grandsons fav shoe!
Reviewer Lisa Stokes
It is a little long. I typically wear a 13. But I have lost some weight, so that's probably it.

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.)
