Wearing these to ymca. Fit is perfect. I bought 1/2 size larger than I normally wear and that worked out well with very roomy toe box that I wanted due to aging toenails.

New Balance makes such nice and affordable shoes. The material does get dirty easily and is hard to clean unless you have the "show cleaners." Pretty sure people can find a crafty way to DIY clean these without having to buy a shoe cleaner, I just have not taken the time to see for myself.

Overall have bought this shoe both online and in store and the shoe is good. It's great for water activities especially if you prefer the feel and support of a sneaker rather than a water slipper/sock style shoe.
One thing to keep in mind is that it runs a bit big, and there are no half sizes. I would recommend sizing down. For example if you are usually a 10.5/11 then consider getting a 10.

Bought these for my son because I was tired of looking at his worn out stain tennis shoes. He says these are very comfortable and he likes them a lot. They wipe off nicely. The foot bed is comfortable and they appear to be well constructed. I will keep this in mind The next time I purchased a pair of sneakers. They’re just as good as any one, two, $300 pair of shoes.

The gray and white look tight.

In my experience, Vivobarefoot has created one of their best shoes yet with the Primus Lux. I have been enjoying the Indigo version for a couple of weeks. Out of over a dozen pairs, it is the most comfortable and best feeling Vivobarefoot shoe I own, requiring zero break-in. The glove soft, finely perforated, unlined leather top allows my foot to breath and feels wonderful against my bare feet. In truly hot weather, nothing beats a sandal or bare feet for coolness, but I think I'll be able to wear this shoe all summer without a sock liner.
I also have the Stealth 2 Lux with this same outsole, which is my favorite of the various types by Vivobarefoot. Somehow, It feels even better in the Primus Lux, perhaps due to the thin leather footbed. This is a very flexible shoe which seems to have a tad less internal volume than most other models, but it fits fine since I don't have a "thick" foot. The tongue is not too long and does not rub the tendon on top of my foot where it bends up to my leg.
The upper wraps snugly around my ankles and heel, yet doesn't feel tight. This has the unexpected benefit of making it hard for those little pebbles that are seemingly everywhere to bounce into the shoe, irritating my bare feet. With most other low-top shoes, this minor annoyance sometimes makes me have to stop frequently and take off my shoes to empty the pebbles. For this reason, though I love my Xero Z-Trail sandals, I avoid wearing them in many kinds of terrain because I constantly have to stop and dislodge pebbles and other debris stuck between my feet and the top of the footbed.
For me, the Primus Lux is an attractive shoe that I can wear almost anywhere. I like how the subtle "V" logos are embossed in the same color, rather than made of contrasting dots as with the related Primus Trio model. The glued (not sewn) outsole has tasteful, wavy undulations where it meets the side of the shoe. Up front, this gives the appearance of a slightly flat front toe cap, but it is actually rounded.
As for the white sole color, I realize that white soles are very popular now for athletic and casual shoes. I like it, but would prefer a dark blue or black color for the simple reason that those colors don't show dirt and grime like white does. Perhaps Vivobarefoot will be good enough to offer this fine shoe in all black? A medium-toned red top with the white sole would probably be popular, too.
I am glad Vivobarefoot continues to innovate and offer barefoot, minimalist shoe enthusiasts so many attractive and functional shoe choices.
Thanks for reading.
(Btw, I purchased these from Vivobarefoot at regular price.)

My husband said they are very comfortable. Support his feet. And he said he sees why I wear propet tennis shoes.
