Where are they tight? if it's in the width you can loosen the laces off but I can't imagine that'd really change too much?

Soon! 😅 got tied up with work and travel but currently still giving them a thorough wear and liking them for sure. Will share detailed thoughts soon 😬

im fining this, im also a 42 in most shoes, i have gobi, ra in 42 and fit fine but my primus lites are massive in 42, i should've sent them back really so i'm stuck with them. Im really struggling on what size to order in a primus trail 2 and/or the gobi sneaker leather mens in black! 🤨

Yeah I know what you're saying. With the Gobi sneaker I did try without the insole in but while it helped they still ran a little narrow and, most importantly, too short. I always go for their biggest which is a UK 14 / EU49 and they'll either fit or not. In general they fit just right or will run short. Rarely will they be too long. Although saying that, for the first time in a while I've got a pair of the new Motus Flex and maybe, just maybe I could have got a size down, BUT i'd always rather they have a little extra space than fit snug. Like you say depending on socks etc, and for me I actually find that in warm weather and just being on feet all day my feet swell up so the whole shoe can end up feeling tight so a generally looser fit is usually preferred when I get any.

yeah that can be very annoying having to keep trying. And the sizes are inconsistent across the range so if you are in between sizes then you do have to do a lot of trial and error.

Interesting analogy 😅 which one is the mustang in this situation cuz I’ll take that one 😂 To be pedantic I’d say they’re more similar than that but I hear you. So you use or have you tried both? Which do you prefer?

Correct it’s just a mirror so if you move or rename it will update it server side. I double checked this as I think I miss quoted something before but it won’t need to re upload BUT it does add changes to the upload queue. But when it checks the file if it hasn’t change and only moved then it will just make the change server side for Backblaze rather than re upload a duplicate.

@@harrisonmudge that’s great, thanks for the prompt response!

@Awwwsheeeeeeit no sweat

Yeah that is the thing I notice about the cork insole. It does tend to slide. I had them in a different pair and found they slid back towards the heel then I could feel the gap under my toes. But I usually remove the insoles anyway so less of an issue

😅 if I remember correctly it’s actually from Tesco!

Ah that’s a shame! Yes I agree, you should be able to put on a pair of shoes and know pretty much immediately if they’re going to fit / be comfortable or not. In rare occasions something can change after a bit of time but in my experience that’s usually in the negative sense. Something you thought fit well then starts to pinch or run a little short or narrow so when your feet expand they’re not right. My feet are roughly in the middle when it comes to width so a lot of Vivos tend to fit just right, or in some cases can feel a bit narrow

I've not noticed the impact on the 120hz display but rarely use the magic mouse now, only for when I'm away from my desk and at that point I usually do more admin than anything mouse heavy. With the dpi though it seems to manifest as faster movement if I dial it up. Are you saying you could dampen the responsiveness but still have the accuracy? As in my head you crank the dpi and it's as if you're "scaling" the way it reads a surface so it reads more movement in less space.

Interesting. I couldn't see any options in the Logi Options+ app. I just get options for 'speed' on a 0-100% scale. Or I can 'extend dpi range' and then it uses a dpi scale to 8000. The result is still the mouse going mega fast!

You know that’s a really good point! Never thought about that. What happened when they got wet? Did they discolour? Their magna FG do change colour from wearing but that’s just general wear, water doesn’t make them any worse if that makes sense. I imagine the new leather ones they’ve released would be much more durable in that respect

On mine the color leached out, the white trim around the upper heel came off, and then the upper material became rock hard when it dried. I loved the shoes before that happened.

Wow, that's a lot a data! Thanks for sharing :) Yeah it's definitely peace of mind for sure. And I really like how it just does it in the background too, nothing manual apart from checking which drives to backup at all.

Yeah even "wide' shoes aren't that wide in the grand scheme of things. Vivobarefoot are ok and my preferred brand but even some of theirs don't get wide enough. And if you're starting out with barefoot shoes and the width is already close, as your feet get a little wider over time then you're going to find less of the shoes fitting as well as they used to. That's what happened to me anyway.

Yeah these definitely run on the shorter side. It's hard to know if the Gobi boot would be the same exactly though even though the sole is the same.

@@harrisonmudge Alright! Yeah but I’m not talking about the gobi boot but the new black version of this one in your video 😄

My bad! Completely miss read your comment? Thought you were talking about the boots!They look nice! Well assuming they fit the same as these I tried then yes these run short. If I could then going up a size would have solved it for me as my toes didn’t really touch the ends until I start moving in them so a few extra millimetres would have made the difference. If you can size up 👍🏻

Haha it would certainly save me a bit of money! I took part in their first pioneer program and had my feet scanned. It wasn't a fully custom fit but the closest to perfect compared to others. It will be an exciting day when we can get the truly custom ones bespoke to our feet.

Yeah for sure. I'll be sticking with Vivos from now on. They just seem to generally fit my foot shape the best.

As far as I’m aware the only real difference is the one “for Mac” doesn’t have the Bluetooth dongle.

99% of the time no I have no issues, and I use all those on Bluetooth. I do, on very very rare occasions have everything disconnect and reconnect. It’s everything though so I’m not sure if that’s a Mac thing or Bluetooth. But it’s so rare and so instant it’s not really a problem. I have experienced issues with my Apple Magic Mouse strange lag and jitters but I was in an enclosed space, right next to a WiFi router etc and that caused issues.

@@harrisonmudge thank you so much!

No problem 👌🏻

I’ve not had any issues with my Primus Lite Knit but It probably depends how people use them. I’ve got lots of different pairs of Vivos for different occasions and my Primus Knit are a more casual wear rather that getting hammered by exercise, or sport so could be that. I’ve never had any true failures with glue though. I’ve got some magna FG, an older pair of Geo racer and a Primus Lite, all of which have an area where the sole has started to come away from the upper slightly. BUT it only ever seems to be at an edge, either the heel or round the little toe let’s say. But it’s never progressed any further round or under the shoe so I think they’re a high stress point but once it gives there then there’s no additional stress so seems to last. Just an assumption but that’s based on my personal experience.

Yes it should do. It’s relatively soft in general anyway but it does have a little stiffness to it due to its ‘newness’ but for sure softens as it flexes and gets its creases 👌🏻

No I'd say they're different. The Primus has more length. Width they might be quite similar but may feel slightly different based on the upper of the shoe.

Really good question and one I still think about each time I get new drives. To keep it brief I'd say SSD is the better option because of speed, size and inherent ruggedness (no moving parts). But both are totally viable. I do think you can still use a HDD for photo editing without any issues. I even use for some video still and totally useable. They're certainly more cost effective but, based on my experience they're more susceptible to physical damage, if you dropped it or somehow aggressively shook it. Obviously an SSD isn't invincible either but there's no moving parts to be bent out of shape.

@@harrisonmudgemany thanks for your detailed response. Really appreciated!

@Pad13 no worries. Hope it helped 👌🏻

Yeah I hear you. I definitely prefer the overall wider fit in my shoes. that's why the RA from Vivo are really nice as they're wider overall in the heel / mid section.

@@harrisonmudge Funny enough, my daily driver is the Vivo Gobi.-) I guess once you experienced the real barefootshoe deal, you can‘t go back…knockoff brands like Feelgrounds that compromise on the barefoot principles and water down their shoes in order to reach the mass market don‘t do themselves a favor.

my thumb sits bang on so I don't have that isse. Interestingly it's developed a slight indent where the button is so that helps me feel for it. Scrolling wise, I have the natural scroll turned on now but I keep the 'ratchet' magnet turned on. The wheel spins way too freely without it and I tend to knock it or rest a finger on it so the ratchet stops it from accidentally scrolling.

@@harrisonmudge I have an app where scrolling down with my Magic Mouse is always smooth, but with the Logitech mouse always scrolls at least 10 lines.

Yeah I’ve definitely found my personal sweet spot. You can crank it up but it goes insanely fast!

Yeah I agree nothing quite matches the gestures on the Magic Mouse. On the MX Master 3S the horizontal scroll usually works to mimic the delete swipe in a lot of apps but it’s definitely not as graceful. I always feel it takes a little over one scroll with the thumb so not quite as slick. Definitely more comfortable for those with larger hands though

No they’ve never rubbed there for me. I’ve got 2 pairs, a RA II and a RA III and neither rub. I find that these are generally on the looser side though too so they’re never tight enough for that friction to cause a blister. For me anyway. 👍🏻

Yes, zero drop and super thin sole. (Also comes with a thermal insole too)

No, none. I was speaking to someone else about this though and from a previous experience, funnily enough with the Magic Mouse, I found that I was getting jitters, lag and all sorts and believe the cause was because of interference from WiFi and other Bluetooth. Could try moving your setup or the things around you, at least to confirm if that’s it or not

😂 true but I think you’re missing the point. As in I’m trying to find shoes for when I need to wear shoes. I don’t want to wear shoes all the time so I don’t but we also have to wear shoes, so this is why I (and everyone else) wears shoes at specific times. Hence why we all own shoes. I’m aware there’s also an argument that you shouldn’t have to give in to social norms and put shoes on just because everyone else does but if we take that logic to the extreme we may as well be walking around naked all the time if we wanted to. That, I don’t believe, is something as many people would agree with.

@@harrisonmudge oh come on now. I checked your channel and not a single barefoot video, just shoes

@dancan6622 😂 what are you talking about. Yes my channel has reviews of shoes. That’s my videos, reviews. If you want to watch videos of me barefooted I can spin up an OnlyFans for you? But in all seriousness what are you actually expecting? Feet shouldn’t be in shoes, shoes aren’t made for feet (usually), I have big feet so when I wear shoes barefoot styles fit better, because they’re barefoot they’re more natural, VIVOBAREFOOT are my favourite brand of barefoot shoes that are also quite expensive relative to others, I buy a lot of them, people are interested in hearing peoples opinions about the shoes. = video reviews of the shoes. I’m not going everywhere with no shoes on and I imagine you don’t too, otherwise you wouldn’t be watching this video would you?

@@harrisonmudge No foot fetish here, sorry. I do go almost everywhere barefoot. I did put shoes on for a few hours last month for a funeral but thats about it

Wow! That's pretty impressive to be honest. I can't say I'm that far along the barefoot lifestyle but it's certainly a consideration. Seems like life would be a little easier in that regard. Where are you based? For me I think I'd struggle to manage always being truly barefooted because if the weather is even remotely mild, not even cold, then my feet get very cold and so do my hands, then is causes me all sorts of cold sweating all over! Very strange but if my feet are warm then I'm warm usually.

Yeah it is very frustrating at times. Especially when there’s a style you like but it just doesn’t fit. I’ve said before but I’d have a pair of almost every style they make if I could but they don’t all fit me 🥲

Yeah I know what you mean. I learned to use it but it is an ergonomic nightmare for a lot of people. Like I say, I learned to use a claw grip but it took some time to get over the initial awkwardness. It's a shame other third part manufacturers can't implement the same controls. At least then there could be a choice for the type or shame of mouse out there. Right now it's either a small crippling pebble with amazing touch controls or a more comfortable grip but with just standard buttons.

Thanks bud. Appreciate the comment and will do 👌🏻

Uncomfortable or comfortable? 😅 I tried the Ababa. The width was amazing and so was the feel but it just just way too short in the length! It was like it was a size down but it was supposed to be a UK 14. Was pretty gutted as I really liked them.

Yeah basically. You just have to pay the return postage which was around $30 ish which is nothing in the grand scheme of being able to recover your data!

@@harrisonmudge I’ve always heard of this service (haven’t had to utilize yet 🤞) but always thought the fee was the fee. I def learned something here, thank you 👍

@@kernzilla No problem 👌🏻

Hmm, it could be that they've just sold out of the boot and wont restock till the winter. If you keep an eye on their range you'll notice they have some "forever stock" or whatever the term is which means they stock all year round with some seasonal colourways to mix things up. Then you have their seasonal range which, as you'd expect they stock for the season, run a sale on any remaining till they run out then you won't see them again till next season. I'm not certain but It could be that the Gobi boot was a seasonal shoe. It was also a new style so perhaps they wanted to test the popularity near end of season to get a bit of demand without committing. Purely speculative on that but based on experience the seasonal thing is the most likely. Unless they had horrendous quality / manufacturing issues.

I had a look at Freet after your comment as they sounded super interesting but when I checked out some of their range they only went up to a UK 12 😓 gutted as would like to try them but not even close to my size

Yeah they’re a little pricey but the quality and feel is really premium so if they’re a good fit you’d be happy with them. Always gotta spark joy every time you put them on and the price will be worth it

Hmm, I don't have any issues with mine BUT it is the Mac specific version. Yours is the one with the dongle right? I can't imagine there's any reason why it would have any issues though. The only other thing I can think is potentially your environment. Do you have a lot of other bluetooth stuff connected or are you surrounded by other electrical stuff? When I was in a previous office I used to be in a narrow space and right next to a WiFi router. My Magic Mouse used to jitter and lag. Not all the time but there was often interference and very frequent. I then tried moving to a different space, further away from the router and in a more open area and it solved the issue! Definitely worth looking at the area you're operating in. Hope that can help a little.

Yeah I’d say so. They have the slightly thicker outsole, combined with the thermal insole and it’s reasonably cushioned enough not to be uncomfortable if you’re starting out. Size wise, if I’m not mistaken the Birkenstock are pretty similar length measurements to vivo so I’d say you’ll likely be good going for a 42 still. 👌🏻

Gladly bud. I’ll certainly start putting some notes together. Sneak peak though… they’re great 🤫

I’m really not sure. I think for me anyway, going up a size if I could probably wouldn’t solve their narrowness. My feet were pressed to the sides as soon as they were on my feet so I can only imagine after wearing them for a few hours they would get worse. If you’re on the fence with them yourself, I’d suggest sizing up if you can for the length assuming your foot width is average. If you’ve got wide feet unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend them. You don’t have to take my word though as Vivo have the 100 day free trial so you can always give them a go yourself and return if they’re not a fit 👌🏻

Awesome you’ve got your go to shoes 👌🏻👌🏻

Yeah I didn't get the sandal right but it just didn't wow me enough to commit. Vivo still my number 1 too for sure.

@@harrisonmudge haven’t found Vivo rubber sandals yet…

They have some leather ones but they’re always super limited supply and never have my size

Thanks will take a look 👌🏻

Looks like they do a good range of sizes, sadly I just don’t like the look of them 😕

@@harrisonmudge I get that. I purchased 5 vivos, 1 splay and 1 xero, and 1 shama sandal before trying out some of Lems boots. (I was hesitant for the same reason) But man they ended up being comfortable. I own 4 lems now and they have become my go to. Would love to see more styles. Very much has the Colorado backpacker look
