On-foot feel:
"This is one of the most comfortable things I’ve ever had on my feet!" – Natalia
The Primus Lite 3.5 feels soft, flexible, and wraps around the foot in a way that feels natural and secure. The upper is made from a thin, breathable mesh material that allows for excellent airflow while forming nicely around the entire foot. The shoe delivers a clear barefoot feel without being harsh – perfect for those who want to feel the ground both in training and daily life.Natalia, who has a low-volume, narrow foot, finds the fit perfect – light, precise, and just where it needs to be.
Fanny, who has a relatively wide and high-volume foot, feels the shoe is slightly low over the instep for her.The shoes are ultra-light on the foot with a snug fit around the ankle and a roomy toe box – making them ideal for gym workouts, running, jumping, and fast movements. A modern classic in the Vivobarefoot lineup – and a go-to favorite for those who value lightness, breathability, and natural movement.
The materials breathe well and wick away sweat during training. This shoe is designed to be as little shoe as possible so your foot can work as naturally as possible – and it shows. The barefoot feel in Primus Lite 3.5 is excellent. These are the perfect barefoot shoes for the gym, running, or CrossFit, but they also work well for everyday wear thanks to the stylish, minimalist design.
Note: The outsole is flat and doesn’t provide much grip on rugged terrain. But on flat surfaces like asphalt and pavement, the Primus Lite 3.5 performs beautifully.
The classic Primus Lite 3.5 might just be the most popular barefoot shoe ever made. It’s a versatile training shoe that performs equally well at the gym, during CrossFit sessions, or out on a run – yet its minimalist design also makes it perfect for everyday wear. These barefoot shoes are vegan and highly breathable, thanks to the lightweight mesh upper.

Please note that Primus Lite is available in men's and women's models. The only difference is that the women's model is slightly narrower while the men's model is slightly wider. Men with narrow feet can therefore choose the women's model and women with wide feet the men's model.
To choose the right size, do this : Measure your foot. Place your heel against a wall and measure to the longest toe. This is your foot size. Add 0.6-1.5 cm to this measurement to know which size to choose. Keep in mind that when you exercise in the shoes, your feet get warm and swell a little, so choose closer to 1 cm extra, or slightly more. Check the size chart below (we have measured the insole here at Widetoes).
Example: Your foot measurement is 28.4 cm. Choose size 44 (29.5 cm) and you will have 1.1 cm extra.
