VivobarefootGobi Hi IV, Womens Lace Up Desert Boot With Barefoot Sole

I ended up returning these but only because they looked to similar to my Peerko black “Frost” lace up boots. They fit as expected and were comfortable.

They'll fit snug when you first try them on but don't worry! They stretch out immediately, so much that you'll notice a difference in feel after only a couple of days.Side note, if they feel to snug when you first begin to wear them, try removing the insulate sole, you'll get tons more room.

Someone recommended these in a podcast so I got them. Very comfortable but the leather wears out and they scratch easily. For that price the quality could be better! Still very stylish and comfortable

Classy and comfortable Boot. Fit was good with a little wider and normal shoe size. I would not say these are super wide but seem wider than norm. I would have loved the style and fit and lightweight, but the squeak was terrible in both shoes and upper and lower parts. At over $200 I need something better. For half the price I might put up with it but seller (legend) had a lot of caveats (more than what i usually see and even mentioned no creases allowed) for the return condition to be acceptable so I didn’t wear them long.

Love this shoe. I can walk several miles without sore feet.

Not a wide toe box. If you’ve got wide feet this won’t due. otherwise they would’ve been great. Seemed to be good quality. Just wish they were wider.

I don't normally leave reviews, but there aren't that many barefoot boot options available for women, so hopefully this helps someone else.Pros:1) Comfortable, wide foot bed so your toes can move naturally.2) All leather, and seems to be good quality, although the leather may scuff easily.3) Flexible outer sole with a removable inner sole. The inner sole is supposed to protect from the cold, and I think it'll do that without taking away from the flexibility.Cons:1) Super late shipping - I need these for a trip and they didn't ship until after the Amazon stated delivery date and arrived almost a week after.2) There's a return label still on the box, white pet fur stuck in the laces and inside the boot, scuffs, creases, and scratches in the leather. Obviously not a new pair of boots, but sold as a new pair.3) Right boot is very loud - if you've ever ridden horses and know that creaky sound a saddle makes this is what the right boot sounds like when you walk.4) Very "shallow" across the base of your toes. If you have "tall" feet or a high instep, these are going to be tight across the top of your foot.Overall, I'm disappointed. I'm probably going to have to keep the boots because I still need them for my trip, but I won't buy from the Vivo store again. Even if I sent them back or ordered a new pair, I don't think they'd make it in time. (Something to keep in mind if you're planning on them as a gift.)I've had Whitten, Xero, and Vivo brands in the past and while this pair is more comfortable than my current Xeros, the quality (creaky noise from right boot), poor shipping time, and the fact that the boots are obviously not new means I won't buy them again.

I am SO sorry these boots couldn't work for me. Despite going up a size (they suggested a 6), these beautifully crafted boots were still too tight. If you are trying them on new from the box, PLEASE make sure you read the directions in case you have to return them! If they fit, you will love them.
