how does it feel walking in them on concrete/pavement? I have some merrell vapor gloves, and they're fun in the forest, but they're terrible walking on the streets. I wanted something that allows me to have proper toebox but I still would like some cushioning for walking, jumping, running

How long are the elastic shoe laces you got? 120 cm or 140 cm? :)

Hey what brand of the stretch laces were you using? Thanks!

How waterproof are they?

I so so love my Belenkas ❤

Hello! Did you use the dive case for the insta X3?

Why are some people tripping about the way certain barefoot shoes look i.e. "like clown shoes" ..... ????? I guess they've they've never worn Birkenstoks before. SMH 🤦🏾‍♂️

my barefoot transformation coincided with my carnivore transformation.

Shapen look similar, give them a check. However, my entire family is not changing to Belenkas and Barebarics.

They're great!

Hey bud, did you use primarily your Nevada there? Or which one did you use? For traveling there?

Hey mate, so I’ll be in Australia soon. I want to get some good Allrounder barefoot shoes. Over there will be around 10-15 degree. And raining. Did you do also hiking on these shoes? Can you recommend them?

Bought my first pair of barefoot shoes (Be Lenka Boots) a couple hours ago. Glad to watch your video. Thanks!

I feel like using high quality leather is a bit of a waste on a shoe that you cant get a new sole on...

Thank you Any knee problems?

Have you have some issues with squeaking? I have received recently my pair and they make noises that come from the upper back part, but on the inside of the boots.

Are these boots waterproof enough for snowy conditions? Thanks

Hows the zero drop (cuz i have a knee pain from wearing new balance shoes and found that only barefoot works for me)

Are they waterproof?

I have wide toe box and macadamia looks great for me. But is it waterproof? I mean in 1 foot snow, is it survive?

Have you inpregnated them?If so, than how? I see the leather doen't look like nubuk anymore, it's shiny :)

What size did you get for the Nevadas since you’re a 10.5?

Thanks for the review. I've been contemplating buying these so this is just what I needed to hear. How do you find the sizing - some people say size up with this brand, but do you find your normal shoe size ok with these?

cool

Awesome update! After your last video, I went and got a pair of Rangers from Be Lenka, I just love them so much and they have stood up to all conditions this winter, and it was a doozy! So much slippery ice and I walked to and from campus ~6 miles or more a day, they held up unbelievably well! The Nevada and Ranger models have the same outsole and it really stood up to the ice better than any other hiking outsoles I own, including Vibram!

Hey Tyler, thanks for the update. I’ve been eyeing these for a while, but haven’t been confident about sizing. What US size do you normally wear and what did you go with for the Rangers?

How long is your longest foot in cm? And which size did you get?

can i use them for summer insted of sneackers just for every day, no sport or smth?

Would you say they're too hot for summer?

Great review, very informative.

*supporting comment*

Tyler, thanks for the review. Sizing question, which I'm surprised many reviewers skip: Same size in Be Lenka vs Vivo, I'm guessing? Brands can vary wildly sometimes.

This was very helpful! Thanks!

Great review. I've been looking at this brand and wanted to see someone show the tread on the shoe more. I may have to pick up a pair of the rangers now.

Would love to hear a follow up review!

Are those laces made by Stretchlace? Curious what length?

Appreciate the review! A lot. But, Bro... Don't knock the Belenkas for being too wide. That's not a detriment of the shoe, that's a detriment of our --societal-- perception (indoctrination that narrow, pointy shoes look good -- they don't actually). Looking like clown shoes isn't a negative. They're healthier, more comfortable, more practical, and Oobjectively attractive looking (where attractive = practical & healthy). The reason Vivos don't look like clown shoes is because Vivos are very NARROW barefoot shoes (as are Groundies, Feelgrounds, Xero, Altra, Lems [except Primal]). I won't even touch the aforementioned, as I appreciate comfort and not deforming my feet. Some really good barefoot/foot-shaped shoe brands are: Belenka, Ahinsa, Vibram FiveFingers, Freet, Topo

Very informative. Thanks Tyler!

Great review! I have been looking into both of these models and literally just bought the Scott III yesterday! The Vivo Magna and Tracker ESC series have a Michelin rubber outsole, I just sent the magna's back as they were causing my toe some significant pain, but I have to say that rubber was something truly special. I guess I will be using the primus knit FG for snow/ice with a thermal insole and the scotts for dry cold for this winter and see how I fare!

I had the Tracker FG from Vivobarefoot. The soles started to delaminate from the shoe after my first walk and sent them back real soon ($250!). I bought the Belenka 'Winter 2.0 Neo and never looked back. Great quality, good fit, comfortable and quite a bit cheaper. As You said the soles are very grippy.
