excellent service

I bought a pair of shoes for hiking. I really enjoyed those shoes, but after a couple of months a hole formed, which seemed wrong to me. I reached out and Sukaina from Vivo responded quickly. They sent a return slip and rapidly processed a refund. I was so pleased I immediately bought a different pair of Vivos (which seem like they will be tougher).

Thanks so much for sharing this, and for choosing Vivobarefoot for your hikes!

We’re really sorry to hear the first pair didn’t last as they should have, but we’re glad Sukaina was able to jump in quickly and get the return and refund sorted for you.

It means a lot to hear how smoothly that experience felt, and even more that you felt confident to give another pair a go straight away.

We hope your new Vivos serve you well on many adventures ahead, and thanks again for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback!

Super slow customer service

I have been waiting for a refund for over 3 weeks. The customer service (which is a Vivi named AI bot) is a nonsense. I will never buy from you again.

I wanted to share my experience with…

I wanted to share my experience with Revivo at Vivobarefoot, particularly the outstanding support I received from Thomas E.

In the past, I had a disappointing experience that left me hesitant about using the service again. Communication felt lacking, and overall it didn’t meet the standard I was expecting. However, I recently decided to give it another try—and I’m genuinely glad I did.

Thomas E completely turned things around for me. From the outset, he was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in resolving my concerns. He kept me informed throughout the process, handled everything efficiently, and made me feel valued as a customer. It’s rare to come across someone who takes such pride in delivering excellent service.

Thanks to Thomas, my faith in Revivo has been fully restored. This experience has reminded me why I was drawn to Vivobarefoot in the first place. If this is the level of care moving forward, I’ll absolutely continue using and recommending the service.

A well-deserved 5 stars—thank you, Thomas!

Thanks again for your openness, support and for being part of the Vivobarefoot journey!

Excellent Customer Service!

I was experiencing failure of the Velcro on my son’s vivo shoes. I contacted customer service well after the purchase of the shoes and they responded very promptly, asked for additional information and offered a return and refund for the problem I was having, even though I was outside of the return window. I was very pleased with the customer service experience and it encourages me to try another pair for my son.

Ian - Customer Service Master

I want to say that throughout multiple calls to resolve various issues with Revivo, Ian, at customer service, was exemplary. He deserves more than 5 stars.
He was incredibly helpful, patient and professional - everything you want for a customer service & more. Extremely understanding whilst upholding the integrity of your company.
A rarity these days.
He saved you from leaving me Vivobarefoot! I sincerely hope you acknowledge him with more than just his manager’s appreciation.
Thank you Ian! It was a pleasure!

Your advertising on paramount is weird and is consistently played none stop. I despise it like other advertisers. Here's a tip! Want to attract custom. Don't make weird adverts, cause whenever I see your brand advertised now. Cause ive seen it spammed so much i hate it and therefore your brand. Thanks

Quick delivery and good quality shoes

Quick delivery and good quality shoes. The shoes are now getting a bit too pricey for what they are (I only ever buy when there is a decent discount) but I like them a lot.

Thanks so much for the feedback! We’re really glad to hear the delivery was quick and that you’re enjoying the quality of your Vivos. We appreciate your honesty around pricing too; it’s something we know customers think carefully about.

We put a lot of care into how and where our products are made, where are our materials are sourced and which transit methods are most environmentally friendly, amongst a range of other factors. Whilst we do appreciate that these decisions make them cost more, we believe that our customers share our values and believe that our processes and our products are worth it.

Thanks again for your support; we’re so glad to have you with us!

Outstanding products and customer…

Outstanding products and customer service.
These guys set the standard for quality in every sense of the word. Their customer service is top-notch. I recently chatted with Thomas E from regarding a pair of shoes I purchased and wasn't happy with the fit. Although I crossed the number of days in their return policy, he was empathetic and understanding because I didn't get a chance to walk with them outdoors. That's one of the many reasons why I keep coming back to buy from Vivobarefoot.

I've owned a pair of Vivobarefoot Gobi…

I've owned a pair of Vivobarefoot Gobi II suede shoes since 2015. Best shoes I ever put on my feet, perfect fit, perfect feel, perfect look. I held onto them for 12 years waiting for a cobbler repair service to become available in the US. When it finally did, I shipped them off and FedEx lost them in transit.
I reached out to Vivobarefoot not really expecting much, just hoping maybe they knew where I could find another pair. Reem responded the same day and offered me a free pair from their current lineup, no questions asked. No hoops, no back and forth, just genuine care for a customer who loved their product.
That's a company that stands behind what they make. I've been a fan for over a decade and this just cemented it. My feet thank you Reem.

Helpful customer service

I contacted customer service about a defect in my beloved Vivos and was offered a return, even though it was beyond the deadline. I was very pleased with the professionalism and helpfulness of Sukaina, the representative. I will continue to purchase from them because I'm very happy with their sporty models.

Great shoes! Customer service hits high marks too. I got a refund from Vivo even though the carrier managed to lose the parcel carrying returned shoes. Would obviously recommend!

I have already complained on trust pilot receiving a response saying my issue would be rectified immediately. I am still waiting for the problem to be solved! This was weeks ago. I have sent several emails with again no response or outcome!!

I brought two pairs of toddlers shoes and within 2/3 weeks the Velcro on both pairs of shoes was no longer sticky. I want a refund!! £120 I have wasted and wouldnt mind if it was sorted but this has been on going since summer 2025.

PLEASE SORT OUT YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE!
