Very comfortable! I still have to use my SuperFeet inserts, but I'm quite satisfied with my shoes.

They fit like all converse. On the narrow and long side. Knowing this, I went a half a size down when ordering for my husband. So instead of his normal size 11.5, I got him an 11 and they fit perfectly.

Read the many outstanding reviews and bought a pair, love them. They are perfect for casual shoes or for mild athletic use. I use them for walking and sometimes biking.

In my experience, Vivobarefoot has created one of their best shoes yet with the Primus Lux. I have been enjoying the Indigo version for a couple of weeks. Out of over a dozen pairs, it is the most comfortable and best feeling Vivobarefoot shoe I own, requiring zero break-in. The glove soft, finely perforated, unlined leather top allows my foot to breath and feels wonderful against my bare feet. In truly hot weather, nothing beats a sandal or bare feet for coolness, but I think I'll be able to wear this shoe all summer without a sock liner.
I also have the Stealth 2 Lux with this same outsole, which is my favorite of the various types by Vivobarefoot. Somehow, It feels even better in the Primus Lux, perhaps due to the thin leather footbed. This is a very flexible shoe which seems to have a tad less internal volume than most other models, but it fits fine since I don't have a "thick" foot. The tongue is not too long and does not rub the tendon on top of my foot where it bends up to my leg.
The upper wraps snugly around my ankles and heel, yet doesn't feel tight. This has the unexpected benefit of making it hard for those little pebbles that are seemingly everywhere to bounce into the shoe, irritating my bare feet. With most other low-top shoes, this minor annoyance sometimes makes me have to stop frequently and take off my shoes to empty the pebbles. For this reason, though I love my Xero Z-Trail sandals, I avoid wearing them in many kinds of terrain because I constantly have to stop and dislodge pebbles and other debris stuck between my feet and the top of the footbed.
For me, the Primus Lux is an attractive shoe that I can wear almost anywhere. I like how the subtle "V" logos are embossed in the same color, rather than made of contrasting dots as with the related Primus Trio model. The glued (not sewn) outsole has tasteful, wavy undulations where it meets the side of the shoe. Up front, this gives the appearance of a slightly flat front toe cap, but it is actually rounded.
As for the white sole color, I realize that white soles are very popular now for athletic and casual shoes. I like it, but would prefer a dark blue or black color for the simple reason that those colors don't show dirt and grime like white does. Perhaps Vivobarefoot will be good enough to offer this fine shoe in all black? A medium-toned red top with the white sole would probably be popular, too.
I am glad Vivobarefoot continues to innovate and offer barefoot, minimalist shoe enthusiasts so many attractive and functional shoe choices.
Thanks for reading.
(Btw, I purchased these from Vivobarefoot at regular price.)

My oldest son loves his new shoes.

I liked the shoe but my granddaughter had the wrong size. It received the shoes but they were way to big. I returned them (I thought) but when I tried to mail them back I was told they were shipped from Fife, UK and it would cost me
$58.00 dollars to mail them back. Can Amazon give me another address in the states so I don't have to pay that? I have since ordered the right size.

Looks pretty nice. Canvas upper is tough, but also took about a week to break in and become comfortable. Until it broke in, it felt a little tight and rubbed a bit. But for the money this was a pretty nice everyday casual shoe. A size 11 was fine for me (a size 11 Merrell, Adidas, Rockport, or Babolat is a perfect fit on me). There's no arch support, which was OK for my medium arches, but people with higher arches should consider getting an insole. I have to lace it a little snug or it creaks when I walk.
I wore the sole down a little faster than the Merrell shoes I usually wear. It's lasted me 5 months so far with a minumum of 6 miles of walking per work day. I expect it'll last another month or two before the sole wears down too far. (I wear out the outside heel and inside toe first.)
Reviewer S Ashby
I love Merrells, they are far and above my favorite shoe brand. Their barefoot stuff is amazing, and their other shoe styles are all excellent. Now this shoe, wow, it is fantastic. Comfortable, stylish, I just love it. Another amazing job Merrell!
