Are your shoes non-slip?

Our outsoles are carefully engineered to provide excellent grip and performance for the specific activities they are designed for, such as outdoor adventures, running, or everyday wear. However, we do not conduct formal testing to classify our footwear as "non-slip."

This means we cannot guarantee that our shoes will prevent slipping in environments with a high risk of slippery surfaces, such as kitchens, hospitals, or industrial settings. These environments often have specific safety requirements due to the presence of wet surfaces, oil, or other contaminants.

Key considerations:

1. Purpose-specific grip: While our outsoles offer great traction for general use, their performance depends on the conditions of the surface and the activity.
2. High-risk environments: If you need footwear specifically designed for non-slip performance, particularly in hazardous or professional settings, we recommend considering shoes that meet certified safety standards for those applications.
3. Care and maintenance: Keeping the outsoles clean and free from debris can help maintain their grip. Dirt, grease, or wear over time may affect traction.

Our focus is on creating shoes that provide natural movement, comfort, and durability. If you’re unsure whether Vivobarefoot shoes are suitable for your needs, feel free to reach out to our Barefoot Buddies via our Contact Form.
