Why You'll Love Them

The Barefoot 2 construction is engineered to keep the foot in its natural position throughout the gait cycle, which can support better proprioception and more efficient movement on technical terrain. Vibram Ecostep is a sustainably formulated outsole compound that maintains the grip performance Vibram is known for while incorporating recycled rubber content - a meaningful detail for eco-conscious runners. The bellows tongue and external heel sling work together to keep the fit secure and debris-free, so you can focus on the run without adjusting your shoe mid-trail.
