VivoBarefoot introduces the Primus Trail Knit FG Grounding, a trail runner designed for those who want to move naturally through the outdoors while feeling more connected to the ground beneath their feet.
Built for mixed-terrain adventures, the Primus Trail Knit FG Grounding combines a flexible, trail-ready construction with VivoBarefoot’s grounding technology, creating a shoe that is designed not only for movement, but for a more direct connection with the earth.
At its heart is a Firm Ground outsole, engineered to provide reliable grip across multiple terrains while maintaining the barefoot sensation that defines VivoBarefoot’s approach to footwear. A tough, non-marking rubber compound delivers sticky grip and high abrasion resistance when the trail gets challenging.
Designed for natural movement
The Primus Trail Knit FG Grounding is built around the principle that feet should be able to move naturally. Its flexible construction allows the foot to respond to uneven terrain, while the Firm Ground sole provides the traction needed for trail running, hiking and exploring the outdoors.

The shoe features a breathable knit upper that allows the foot to move freely while helping to keep trail debris at bay, making it equally suited to everyday adventures and more demanding off-road routes.
Grounding technology
What sets the Primus Trail Knit FG Grounding apart is its conductive construction, designed to create a pathway between the body and the earth beneath you. A removable conductive insole works alongside conductive materials within the shoe to offer a more direct connection to the ground, appealing to those looking to deepen their experience of being outdoors and reconnect with nature with every step.
From woodland paths and coastal tracks to hardpack trails and everyday walks, the Primus Trail Knit FG Grounding is designed to provide the freedom and flexibility needed to explore varied terrain.

The shoe is designed to be cleaned simply: mud can be brushed away before wiping with a damp cloth. For drying, VivoBarefoot recommends removing the insole and allowing the shoes to dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and radiators.
For maintaining water repellency on the textile, VivoBarefoot recommends its Liquiproof Premium Protector as the shoes become worn.
