The Vivobarefoot Motus Flex Natural Obsidian Men's is made for sports where you prefer maximum foot mobility. Indeed, the ultra-lightweight barefoot training shoe was designed to allow your feet to move unhindered in any direction. This is perfectly possible thanks to the supple, knitted upper, but especially to the special Motus Flex outsole. This was designed in collaboration with calisthenics experts. This ultra-thin sole was split into two parts for full flexibility and mobility.
The upper of this Motus Flex Natural is made from 61% Tencel. Tencel is a brand name for high-quality Lyocell: a sustainable, soft fibre made from wood pulp sourced from sustainably managed forests. It is an environmentally friendly alternative to cotton, as producing Tencel fibres requires 80 to 90% less water. What’s more, Tencel absorbs up to 150% more moisture than cotton, is thermoregulating and antibacterial.

Sizing:
We are often asked what size barefoot shoes you should choose. Unfortunately the answer is not that simple. Each brand has its own size chart and even within different models of the same brand there are often differences. Therefore it is important that you measure the length of your feet. A minimalist shoe is at least 8, but preferably 12mm longer than your foot length.
Unfortunately, wrong/old measurement tables circulate on the internet. Therefore, we measure the length of the insole ourselves and add it to the size chart. This way you can determine your ideal size.
