I bought these Asics for my son because he was wearing through his K-Swiss shoes every two weeks on hard courts. The Asics will probably last 5 to 6 times as long.

These are far more comfortable then typical canvas sneakers, but they offer a similar casual look. The sizing is very accurate, so order your normal size, regardless of whether you plan on wearing them with or without socks.
I've seen some reviews mention that they run narrow, but I don't agree. Compared to your typical canvas sneaker, they actually run wide and probably run wide compared to many other sneakers, as well. They have very ample toe room.

Was hard to wear due to my toes crunching up at the end of the shoe.
I wear a size 8 and ordered a size 8, had to return them and get another size.

My husband loves these shoes and has been wearing a pair for about 2 years. He pronates pretty badly and the old shoes needed replacing because they were losing stability. We ordered this pair knowing he wanted the exact same shoes. They are perfect, with "new shoe" support for his ankles. He loves this shoe because due to Parkinson's he has difficulty tying shoes and wants to be able to step into his shoes. These look and feel like lace-up shoes. He wears them to walk for exercise, but he also wears them to go out running errands etc.

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.)

I bought these for my boyfriend on his birthday. He really likes Converse and thought it would be a good gift. He says that they fit fine and are comfortable to walk around in.

Very happy with the product now that I have replaced the insole with one that adds to the arch support. the insole has also improved the fit which was a little loose. Easy shoe to wear.. comfortable and light weight. I did reverse the shoe lace coming through the top eye .. comes in from below the eye instead of going through the eye from the top of the eye. Not sure how that might have impacted the fit but it does make it easier to get in and out of the shoe. For me .. being able to remove the insole and replace it with one providing more arch support and cushioning has made a big difference.
NEW DEVELOPMENT .. after less than two months of not very frequent use the thin dark grey outer sole(that part that hits the ground) has worn off. Did not realize that the surface that hits the ground was so thin and quick to disappear. This new development has changed my evaluation of these shoes. So .. shoe fits, feels good and looks nice but disappoints when it comes to being worth the money.
