Awesome! My current favorite shoes are the Gobi Desert boot and the Sensus. If the RA is a bit too small, check out the Gobi Desert boot, it has more toe room. Stay well my friend.
These shoes are the same color as my beloved gobi desert boots, fabulous! I love the color of the upper, which has some imperfections, as real untreated leather should be! I also really like the color of the sole. I wear my gobi boots every day in this winter period, with socks in cotton that keep the cold well... excellent choice!👌
You have good taste Alice. Here in Tennessee it gets cold but not as cold as the states up north. It will get down to 30 degrees F or 0 degrees celsius on avg. and I've noticed if I wear warm lined boots or thick wool socks my feet will sweat. So I usually just wear my Gobi with cotton socks too. Cheers!
Good shoe, but the problem I ran into was that the insoles kept slipping to the front of the shoe making it pretty uncomfortable, so I had to remove them, making them go barefoot-max mode, which was a bit overwhelming
This is a common complaint with this shoe and the Gobi Desert boot. Vivo needs to either make a leather or wool insole or no insole at all. When I remove the insole, then the shoe is to big. Thanks for the feedback. Stay well my friend.
If you like barefoot shoes… I think you may like the company Wildlings as well. I have one of there wool made shoes and they are pretty comfortable… Im not sure if the sole is rubber but made out of something else rather…less grippy than vivo…but I did enjoy wearing without socks.
I've had other subs recommend this company too. I like their back story of how they got started. Family lived in Israel, and let their children run around barefoot, then they move back to Germany, and decided to start a company to make barefoot shoes. Looks like they use mostly natural materials. I'd like to order some shoes from them, but I think shipping is expensive, and think I have to pay for return shipping if i get the wrong size. Are you from Germany by chance? and Welcome to my channel Ken!
@@primalpassion you made a great video though, and your voice is perfect for narration. It's just funny to me, with the business leather shoes and very short shorts 😛😛? Sorry if it came off mean-spirited 😊
@@Lasse3 The world needs more laughter and if I can get you to laugh, then I'm doing something right. I don't take anything personally, and encourage critique from others. It's funny because I use to make fun of short shorts not to long ago, then I tried them and realized they are quite comfortable. This leads me to a funny story. Last summer I hit on a girl while I was wearing these same shorts. She was walking past me and I thought she was cute, and I said hey, and as she said yessss. I didn't know what to say, so i said: Do you think these shorts are too short? and she said no, I like them. and I got her number and a date out of the deal, lol! Cheers man!
Both shoes are essentially the same shoe, but I do like the Lux model better because it has vegetable tanned leather, and a natural rubber sole. I would choose the color you like best. Both shoes are great, but my one complaint with the RA is the laces do put a bit of pressure on top of my foot leaving red marks, so I have to remember not to over tighten my laces. Hope this helps!
Excited For receiving a pair of Ra II tomorrow,are my first Vivo shoes

Loving these reviews! I’m a huge fan of Vivo as well and your reviews have helped me pick the right shoes to order!
Awesome! thanks for the feedback, lets me know I'm on the right track! always feels good to help others out. Stay well my friend.
6:29 bro, you should make a footage with trouses or jeans on, for us to see how they look in normal office conditions they are made for....😮
Good idea! I will start doing that on future videos. Thanks brother!
I kept laughing... 😂😂
The short shorts with leather shoes and socks, and him dancing around with the continuous narration, had me in stitches
Really value your reviews, brother! Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words brother! Welcome to my channel!

Thinking about buying a pair, there on sale right now for $160
I think the RA is a great shoe, but I recommend the Gobi Desert boot. Stay well my friend!
@@primalpassion just ordered the Gobi , thanks for the information
@@papacos4745 Good choice! Here's my Gobi video: ruclips.net/video/3EVhhD5FzHI/видео.html

the phrasing of "meet some clients and do a business transaction" feels like it could be admissible in a court of law. ;-)
lol! I totally agree! Welcome to my channel!

I think the gobi desert boots and Ra shoes are the best vivobarefoot models for small or skinny feet🦶
haha! me too! It would be nice if Vivo would start making a medium width and wide width option.

This must be a joke😅😅😅
Glad I could make you laugh!

Would you recommend these or the RA 3 lux?
