VIVOBAREFOOT Motus Studio Sneaker Leather.
Designed for Studio activities such as Yoga and Pilates where you may need to keep your shoes on.
The sole is designed to give you maximum flexibility just like the Motus Flex.
Compared to the Flex the Studio Sneaker has a knitted tongue and waxed cotton laces for a better fit.
The leather versions are easily worn for work or social outings too, a nice all rounder shoe for Autumn and Spring.
Please be aware that we will be closed Wednesday afternoon 5/11 and Thursday afternoon 6/11.
A small window Thursday morning 10-11.45 and 1.30-3pm for order collections and shoe fittings.
Business as usual from Friday.
New stock uploading Thursday and Friday!

Be Lenka Kids Energise!
White & Multicolour or White & Iridescent.
Wide, flexible, and durable.
Fun colour options. Our kids love them!
If your kids are used to Vivobarefoot, Be Lenka runs a tad larger. So if they're looking like they're outgrowing a 27eu, you may find they have more length in the Be lenka in the same size.
Local? Please make an appt via the website for a fitting.

How do they compare?
Barebarics next to Vivobarefoot
Here we have the Barebarics Zing size 39 next to the Vivobarefoot Gobi II Sneaker Premium Leather size 39.
Vivobarefoot definitely have the most flexible and thinnest sole.
Barebarics are definitely wider with more room for toe splay on broader feet.
Vivobarefoot a thinner shoe overall
Barebarics have a bit more padding to them around the heel and under foot.
Both zero drop. Both wide.
Neither is better or worse.
It really depends on what you feel you need.
