The first 590 limited-release pairs will be available for sign-ups and walk-ins at Vivobarefoot London Bristol and Prague concept stores. This is more than just a sandal; it’s a return to human-centric design—powered by Viobiomes cutting-edge, low-waste, scan-to-print technology that enables natural movement while reducing environmental impact.
“This is simplicity—reimagined,” says Asher Clark, Co-founder and CDO at Vivo barefoot. “We’ve taken one of humanity’s oldest tools and brought it into the future—custom-fit, better for your body, and better for the planet.”
With barefoot health benefits, zero stock, low-waste production, and a form that adapts to your natural foot, the VIVOBIOME sandal is disrupting the industry—starting with the humble flip-flop. Walking barefoot supports natural foot development, enhances balance and proprioception, prevents deformities, reduces joint stress, and improves overall foot health. VIVOBIOME footwear is designed to replicate the natural barefoot experience as closely as possible. The flip-flop just got flipped.
Vivobarefoot is proud to introduce the VIVOBIOME Tabi Gen 01, a groundbreaking innovation that redefines footwear. This revolutionary barefoot sandal is the world’s first fully bespoke, 3D-printed sandal, crafted using Vivobarefoot’s patented scan-to-print technology. Designed to enhance natural movement and wellbeing, the VIVOBIOME Tabi Gen 01 represents a footwear revolution, shaped entirely by the wearer’s feet and inspired by the origins of human mobility.For over 10,000 years, sandals have been fundamental to human movement, from the oldest known sandals discovered in Oregon caves to the thong-style flip-flops worn by the ancient Egyptians.
However, modern flip-flops evolved into mass-produced, one-size-fits-all products that ignore natural biomechanics. The VIVOBIOME Tabi Gen 01 restores the connection between feet and the ground, offering a fully customized fit tailored to each wearer’s unique foot shape.
