Are VIBAe barefoot shoes?

We are not barefoot in traditional terms speaking as we have an extremely comfortable Carbon Step footbed inside. We are zero drop as the footbed compresses with your body weight to level the toes and the heel, we do have thin soles (only 3 mm), we are light and flexible, and we have a wide toebox.VIBAe fits into the minimalist footwear arena because we use high quality materials that do not need all the extra backings needed to make a pair of shoes. This makes them feel very soft like a glove around your feet. We are FEEL GOOD shoes!

COMFORTABLE STEPS WITH

Carbon Step™ footbed

The soul of VIBAe footwear is the removable Carbon Step™ insole. The contoured 11/14/7 formula (11 mm of heel cushion, 14 mm of arch support, and 7 mm in the forefoot) provides the ultimate comfort and will naturally compress to follow your foot profile into a neutral position.

The open cell structure of the polyurethane composition retains the bouncy feeling and helps to prevent bacterial growth to combat foot odor. The cork shank works as a thermal insulator and provides structure and protection to the underside of the insole for longevity.

With Carbon Step™, you take comfortable steps towards a healthy and sustainable future.

Our Carbon Step footbed is built on 11/14/7 formula which means that there's an arch support of 3 mm and the toes are 4 mm lower than the heel. After using a pair for a while, the footbed adapts to your own foot and will naturally compress to follow your foot profile, giving the foot a neutral position.

Did NOT get them

Ordered two pairs in beige and black. Only the beige arrived. They are true to size but the band is way too wide. Therefore I sent the pair received back. Would consider sizing down if I ever will get the refund for the two pairs. Customer service is non-existent. No answer to emails or social media media messages. Cannot recommend because of bad customer service.

Good

These are nice quality. The sole is harder and thinner than expected. Not extremely comfortable but not bad.

Not confortable for walking

When we walk they slip off our feet. I mean the feet start do go back and don’t remain in place so these are not confortable to walk with.

Great look fashion forward slider

I really want to like these but the overall feel is rock hard and really snug. The sole is stiff like wood and uncomfortable. The size is true to size, The look is really great. Very fashionable. I imagine in a year of wearing these they will soften up.
