- Today we are looking at two potential replacements for my Hi-viz vivo shoes that you have probably seen in some of my previous Vivo videos. They are over 5 years old now and time for a fresh pair. But which ones? Let me know in the comments!

You're probably the only person on TH-cam who has those kind FGs that I can see lol mine are shipped super excited to use them 💪
Glad I could help
I got the primus trail knit also and im in love with them. If you go running give them time to break beforehand.
Thanks for the info for Revivo! I'm new to barefoot shoes and wont be going back to 'normal' shoes any time soon!
Happy to help!
Thanks for the comparison. However, I would have appreciated a deeper dive into the difference in performances between the two (ie. how they differ in feeling when you are doing the same activities, whether it is hiking, or working out, etc.). The only difference you had mentioned was size, tongue, and laces, which are all frankly side by side comparisons, not actual performance.
I have had primus trail FG knit for few days . so comfortable. Never felt so at ease when doing my day to day activities plus i use them for work . i still get aches on my feet. I know the more i wear them . the more beneficial they are for me.
Depending on what you do for a job its not bad to wear a supportive and comfortable shoe. I wear my Knit FG vivos for day to day use because im moving around and not on my feet all day.
Thank you for this video!
I love my primus trail 2 FG’s. I wish the string was shorter though!!!
You could always cut the laces and tie m up the regular way.
I'd be interested how the sizing of these feel side by side. I've seen many comments about the knits being long and here other ppl say the regular fgs are short.. your experience. I definitely want one of these pairs.. Cheers
Well, I’m sure you decided by now, but I just watching the video I would never pick the net I have always found out after a while that knit stretches a little bit and when you try to tighten up to shoot the lock yourself in it is all bunches up on you and it’s not a lot of fun
Any update? which ones do you wear now? Pros and cons. Please share!Thanks !
I know, he said he would make a video saying which ones he kept.. one year later still waiting for that video :P
How long does the tread last on those trail fg 2? Can they be re -soled ?
i've tried both in a shop and both felt very comfortable. then i bought the knit. (i alredy have two other pairs of vivos).
and i have blisters on my heels beacuse the foot slips inside. i didn't find (yet) a way to tie the laces so it will be both comfortable (not too tight) and cause my feet not to slip. i think it is beacuse of the like-a-sock construction.
i'll give it a try for a few more days, and if it is not getting better maybe i'll try to switch (if the shop will agree, hopefully)
Try an extra pair of insoles, should take away the volume for you :)
@@nettigoodman6354 i buy barefoot shoes for the thin sole, using an extra insole kind of oppose the idea.
Anyway, i returned them and took the regular FG and they are just GREAT!
Same I have thought of adding some padding to deter blisters, I have been grabbing the standard trail till then
@@Tacchi3 Did you buy the regular FG true to size? Or did you have to size up a whole size?
Recommended in the city, and how many degrees Celsius is it warm?
How’d your return go? I have a few pairs I’ve been trying out and need to send some back. Hoping it will be relatively easy.
Mine was relatively easy to return 2 different pairs of shoes
which one did you end up keeping?
They don't like to get back to you about returning them because they sent you the wrong item / color. I've emailed them weeks ago and have received no replies.
Does anyone have a pair of Primus Lites as well as Trails? If so, do you have any experience with size differences between the Trails and the Primus?
I do have both of them and I did experience a size difference. My primus 3s fit like all my other vivo shoes and I’m usually a size 10 (41EU). My primus trail fgs run a lot smaller. To the point where I’d even size up a whole size in them because they were up against my toes so bad to the point where it would hurt if I bend my feet or crouched down or something. But I was worried about the size up being too big. I definitely feel a size difference though.
@@esternascimento6363 can confirm this! Have both in 39 and the trail II fg is so much smaller I‘d size up next time
Any recommendations for an alternative to these laces? I find them quite annoying, but am reluctant to replace them with 'proper' laces, in case it upsets the comfort, or fit (which is fantastic!)
I saw some other reviewers say they come with alternate laces with the shoes
@@IanOcampoPodRider2016 I have the Primus Knit FG and they only come with those quick adjust laces. No normal laces. Great shoes, by the way.
@@iakona23 I recently bought a pair of primus trail ii all weather in obsidian. They didn't come with alternate laces either 😅 can always replace them though
So, which one *did* you keep?
Could probably cut the laces on the non-knitted one
anyone know how does the Knit FG preform in the gym? I'm getting one anyways but just want to know what other people thinks about these? Thanks. XD
Was looking for this as well. Any thoughts after a year? Do you also run outdoors/indoors? What kind of gym workouts did you do? Any issues with not enough stability during dynamic movements due to the knit?
Any recommendations on waterproof barefoot boots?
If you have a particular brand in mind then just look for one made from water repellent materials such as leather or faux leather. Vivo have plenty of choices along with many other brands.
I recommend the Freet Mudee.
Vivo Tracker FG or Forest ESC are good options depending on terrain.

Video interesting, but way too long even at 2x speed. Could use pretty dramatic editing.
And maybe any sort of review?? But let’s talk about the long lace for 2 minutes
Why don't you just buy the womens versions? They are not as wide and the design is basically the same.
Someone told me they look like socks with armor. I stopped wearing them -.-
You care too much what people think bro lol these aren't for looks their for being able to strengthen your feet and stop cramming them into normal kicks. Like I got every foamposite there is but they destroy my feet so I got these to fix them lol
I embrace it. I call my RA II's leather bound socks.
Pretty snide taking advantage of their amazing 100 day return policy like that. It’s for people who have never had a pair before and want to try them out. Not for someone to just test whatever pair they feel like. Basically you’re just wasting a pair of trainers. Typical of todays society.
Its the vivos policy. Its one of their marketing strategy to get consumers buy in. If people want to take advantage of it then so be it. Im sure if there’s some policy thats in your best interest you will do exactly the same thing.
When they make shoes that fit differently from model to model, and only come in whole sizes; it’s kinda important to buy a shoe that fits when they are nearly $200. Throw in the fact that you can’t try them on almost anywhere…
