Vivobarefoot Sensus Mens Review/Thoughts 3 weeks in [NOT Sponsored/Affiliated] 

Points to Note: I didn't really include my own conclusion but I definitely recommend these shoes but only at a low enough price and with those special quick-tie laces (Unless you're not planning to use it as a slip-on!). The leather is incredibly supple and is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn, period. - I am not an affiliate/sponsor. This is literally my first video in this sphere :D - This shoe isn't a slip on despite the heel notch at the back and my direct comparisons to the Ababa IIs. - I haven't discussed user edge cases where some people's feet may meet an extreme (e.g really wide foot). I wouldn't be able to tell! I advise finding a youtuber who discusses this :) - If enough people ask, I can include a link to the quick-tie laces. They are NOT from Vivobarefoot. - The audio you hear at the end is despite the traffic and other general noise. You may need to increase the audio. - I've heard Vivobarefoot may contribute part of the sales to charitable causes. Haven't verified this myself. - Feedback would be great! Be as harsh as possible but conditionally just as constructive please!

Thanks for sharing! It’s so nice to see a concise impartial/unsponsored review. Keep the videos coming.

this was super helpful! i just placed my preorder. i've only ever worn their bulkier boots so im glad i found some sort of info on these

Thank you for the video, truly appreciate a much needed unbiased/not sponsored opinion. Definitely very helpful, as feedback I'd suggest to include some footage of you wearing the shoes from different angles (close up). Thank you again!

Useful vid thanks. I bought my first vivo (Primus lite III) in November but have not actually started wearing them yet. I used to be very addicted to New Balance Minimus Trail and I think bought my first ones around 12 years ago. I loved them so much I must have bought 20 pairs (different colours over the years). I found them the most comfortable shoe ever. Sadly they stoped making them a bout 3-4 yrs back. I bring those uo for a reason. I always bought a size 11 New balance. So I presumed the Vivo Primus would be similar, found then too big. I changed them for a 10 and they are good, with the finger width space (as you mention) at the top. I like the look of the Sensus and, prior to seeing your vid, have just ordered the olive ones. I think they may be suede. Also I think the all round stitching is a good feature. I hope the size is the same as Primus.

Great review would love to see more

Update on my Sensus purchases-Unfortunately I have had rather bad luck with them, it’s a shame because I really like the shoe. Basically I was finding that when I walked in them the right (left was fine) would make an audible flapping noise (or a bit like sound of stepping out of water) with each and every step. Customer service told me that there were a small number with a fault. Unfortunately, as I bought a brown leather pair and a green suede both had exact same problem. It’s not as if it was a looser fit on the right, I even tried tightening the laces, but problem persisted. A differnt agent at customer services stated that it perhaps I should try a different style and did not mention a fault. Anyway I decided to get a refund for the suede and have the leather ones replaced. I tried the replacements on yesterday and not only do I have the same issue the leather is torn (tight next to, not on) on the panel at the back. I have the Primus Lite III and there are no issues with them. Sadly I will have to return the faulty and damaged 3rd pair of Sensus I have tried.

Thank you great review and liked the walking at the end sounds from the shoes I also subbed due to a good review congrats😊

Really helpful video! 1 more question - would you say they fit the same as the Ababas? Thank you!

Great video, thank you for the valuable info. Do you think these could also be used to go to/at the beach, like slipping them on and off with wet feet (salty water)

Good review. Never had Barefoot shoes before. I tried their online sizing where you take a picture of your foot on an A4 peice of paper. It's coming back with a uk 7. I'm usually a uk 9 and sometimes a uk 8. Does anybody know how accurate the Barefoot size guide is?

Thanks for this video! Great job - to the point. Your tan shoes look much lighter than what's shown online. Is that the case? Considering the olive but if the tan are lighter than might go with them.

Can you show a quick video of what the shoes look like with the inserts? They look so hollow like this

Sold ouuuut. I really wanted them so bad.

Do you like them so far?

where did you get the quick-tie laces?

@Xana I notice after posting my update you do mention in your video that yours too make a sound when walking and I guess You didnt have a problem with it. Mine was only on the right and it bugged me.

How’s the ababa 2?

Ok that flapping sound is annoying. Do you still like Them?

These fit kinda strange at first but broke in really nice. i love all my vivos but the sad truth is that they suck when it comes ro durability. I wont be buying anything from this company till they stop sellimg shoes rhat last less than 5 months.

'PromoSM' 😡
