Vivobarefoot runs the code VIVOAFF15 takes 15% off regular-priced orders if you’ve been putting off a pair of wide-toe, thin-sole, zero-drop shoes because of the price, this is the cheapest window I’ve seen on the Tracker line in a while. Vivobarefoot-com has marked its Tracker hiking boots and Primus trail shoes down by as much as 25%.
Vivobarefoot’s idea hasn’t changed since the start. Give the foot room to spread, keep the sole thin enough that you can feel the ground, and keep heel and forefoot level. You either love that or it takes a few weeks to get used to. Nothing on this sale page changes that, but it does lower the cost of finding out.

The sale page at vivobarefoot.com/us/sale covers hiking boots, trail runners and everyday barefoot shoes. The tiles show several colorways per model. Not every color is discounted equally, so click into the one you want before you settle on a size.
Tracker Leather AT Low At $165 Or High At $202.50
Both versions of the Tracker Leather AT sit at a full 25% off. That makes this the headline of the sale. It’s an all-terrain leather boot, which is the category where barefoot brands usually charge the most.
The $37.50 gap between low and high comes down to ankle coverage. Your trails decide that, not the discount.
Which one would I buy? The low, for most people. A high barefoot boot feels odd at first because the ankle is wrapped but the sole underneath is still thin, so you get support up top and ground feel below. Some hikers love that combination. Others find it confusing on rocky descents. If your walking is mostly packed trail, city streets and wet grass, the low version covers it and costs less. Save the high boot for mud, snow or scree where the extra leather keeps grit out.
The leather upper will need some wear before it softens. Keep that in mind if you plan to use the 100-day trial, which comes up further down.
Colorways Sell Unevenly
Deal tiles on the page list multiple colors for each Tracker. In practice, the neutral browns and blacks usually lose common sizes first during a markdown. Oddball colors hang on longer. If you’re flexible on shade, you’ll have more sizes to choose from.
Primus Trail Knit FG Drops To $136.80
This one’s a different buyer altogether. The Primus Trail Knit FG is a trail runner with a knit upper and a firm-ground outsole. It’s lighter and more flexible than the Tracker, and it’s meant for moving fast rather than carrying a pack.
At 24% off, it’s the cheapest way into Vivobarefoot’s trail range on this page. Both men’s and women’s fits are included.
“FG” means firm ground, so on soft mud the lugs won’t bite the way a dedicated soft-ground sole would. That’s worth knowing before you buy it for a wet autumn.
Working Discount Codes Are
Three codes are floating around for Vivobarefoot right now:
- VIVOAFF15: 15% off regular orders
- WELCOME15: 15% off, aimed at first-time purchases
- SAVE30: $30 off qualifying orders over $150
Do they stack with the sale prices? Test it before you count on it. Plenty of footwear brands block promo codes on items that are already marked down, and Vivobarefoot’s checkout is the only thing that gives the real answer. Put a sale item in the cart and try the code. If the total doesn’t move, the code will still work on full-price styles.
For the sale boots, compare the math. SAVE30 knocks a flat $30 off anything over $150, while 15% off a $165 order is $24.75. On orders around that size, the flat $30 wins, if the code applies to your cart.
Entering A Code At Checkout
- Add your size and color to the bag.
- Go to checkout and find the discount or promo code field in the order summary.
- Paste the code in and apply it.
- Confirm the total dropped before you enter payment details.
Only one code usually goes through per order, so pick the one that saves the most on what’s actually in your bag.
100 Days To Decide If Barefoot Suits Your Feet
Vivobarefoot runs a 100-day trial. You can wear the shoes outside, on real ground, and still send them back within that window. For someone coming from cushioned running shoes, this matters more than any code on the page, because calves and feet take a few weeks to adjust to zero drop. A 30-day return window would close before you really know.
Free standard shipping applies once your order passes the threshold shown at checkout. The sale boots clear it easily at these prices, but check the figure for your region.
There’s also ReVivo, the brand’s program for refurbished and resold Vivobarefoot shoes. If the sale prices are still too high, it’s worth a look.
A 25% cut on a $270 leather boot is a real discount, not a rounding trick. Still, barefoot footwear is a bet on your own feet adapting, and no coupon makes that bet for you. I’d start with the low Tracker, use every day of the trial, and only then worry about whether the high boot was the better buy.
