Thanks for the discount code! I just picked up a pair of Gobi IV and am excited to check them out. I've had a pair of Magna FG's for almost three years that I've used consistently and they're still comfortable and hold up great!
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
Right on! They're a nice compliment to each other, so you should be well covered for pretty much any terrain. Have fun out there!

Thanks for the discount code, been wearing nothing but barefoot shoes for 3 years, my first pair of Vivos though. I’m going with the Sensus.
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
Ahh, nice! The Sensus is rad, it feels soft like a baseball glove for casual use, but works for running/training too. Happy barefooting out there!

Thanks for sharing! I just ordered some Vivo's to replace the Lems I have. Hopefully the size/fit will work!
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
Right on! Which Vivo's did you go with?
@NCSUmagnetАй бұрын
@AndrewFolts I am going to try the Ra III Lux to replace the Lems 9to5, Gobi Lux to replace the Lems boots, and the Gobi sneaker to replace a Lems sneaker. I have some toe spacers, but my feet are starting to feel squished when I wear them in the 9to5. I hope the Vivo's are wider than the Lems. I'll find out soon. It has been hard to find good barefoot style office work shoes.
@NCSUmagnetАй бұрын
@@AndrewFolts what would you suggest for a wider office shoe? Just got the Vivo's in and they don't seem any wider, and with socks, they feel narrower than the Lems 9to5 (even with the insole removed). And also looking for a suggestion for a wider casual shoes and boots.
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
@@NCSUmagnet If Vivo's are too narrow, then maybe check out the Realfoot City Jungle. bit.ly/3QQelzF Softstar Chelsea bit.ly/3UJxxRt would be another good option, although it's insulated. Any style you like from Be Lenka would work too, since they're all extra-wide. The Synergy is a good pick. bit.ly/411LGgN

Hi Andrew, I have the same pressure point problem with my Tracker Forest Esc. After some fiddling I found the solution in a terry cloth wristband around the ankle. Can simply be slipped over the foot when you are already wearing your sock. Try it out!
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
That's very clever! I had thoughts of cutting a ring out of an old pair of thick Smartwools, but the wristband is probably a lot more durable. Great tip.

Those Magma FGs aren’t water resistant at all, just stepping out into my front garden in damp grass and they’re soaked through. Have you found the same?
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
They're not waterproof, but mine have stood up nicely to wet grass and minor puddles. For more water resistance you can treat them with some beeswax/lanolin, which really helps seal them up. Vivo sells some bit.ly/3QU7EeV, but you can buy it lots of places.
@gvarph7212Ай бұрын
Does the leather on the Magna FG get softer? I've tried them in store, and the leather was pinching my toes when I bent my foot. The leather on the Magna Forest ESCs felt much better, but the lugs are overkill for my needs
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
It does, yea. I was getting annoying pinching on my ankles the first couple weeks, but they softened up nicely over time. Beeswax can also help soften the leather.

When there was ice in the road after snow, my Vivo Magna Forest esc could not provide enough grip. It was so slippery.
@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
Really no shoe or boot can provide any grip on slippery ice. There's just nothing for the tread to hold on to. The only thing I've see actually work is those Nano Spikes amzn.to/40LbSMw, which feel clunky and get worn down fast on bare pavement, or that Vibram "Ice+" sole, which is like sandpaper, but also wears down quickly. So, overall, the best thing to do is just be mindful and use a short stride on icy terrain, as well as keep your hands out in case you do slip.

That's the original Magna FG. They only have the Magna FG Leather in stock right now, which is the same thing but with more sheen and a bit better water resistance. Not sure if they're going to keep carrying the original Hopefully!

@AndrewFoltsАй бұрын
My guess is that Vivo doesn't do discounts for countries with high import taxes. I looked it up and Germany charges an 8-16% import duty, plus an extra 19% for shoes, so 35% import tax plus a 25% coupon would be 60%, which is crazy.
@ekjellgrenАй бұрын
@@AndrewFolts it works in Sweden, I think we have even higher taxes
@HokanaMatataАй бұрын
@@AndrewFolts Hmm. There are no import taxes when ordering from vivo:) When ordering from Germany for example the shoes are sent from their warehouse in Netherlands which is inside the European union. Perhaps this guy is using a VPN service or if the code is limited to certain countries for no reason.
