I haven’t tried Vivo. But I forgot to mention Xero. I have a pair and they work pretty well for me as a workout shoe indoors. So far they’ve stood up very well and they’re comfortable.

I have three pairs of vivos

Primus Lite IIIs: I’ve had them a little less than a year. The part where the shoes crease when you flex your toes are wearing out quick and I can see them getting holey pretty soon. I’ve used them everyday for walking, hiking and skating around. I suspect the wear comes from skating because the shoes bends the most at that area. I would personally get another shoe from vivo or a different brand for an everyday shoe of that type

Magna FG/Trail: hiking boots, not as much wear I only use them on hikes or when it rains. Probably the most comfortable boot I’ve ever worn (also the most expensive). I don’t see any signs of testing just normal wear.

Gobi IIIs: I haven’t really worn them much yet, but I hear their the more durable shoe from vivo because of the leather and stitched soles. Hopefully they last a longer time

I am on my third pair pf Gobi IIs (one canvas two leather). The soles have worn thin sooner than I like in the heels. Been trying to keep them going with shoe goo and e6000 but despite wiping w alcohol first, the goo starts to peel on edges of goop/sole within days.

Ahhh shit. I was hoping for a more durable shoe. Might look for another brand then
