The Journey To Our Wildest Footwear – R&D

Explore the world of innovation with our Ecological Survival Collection (ESC): our line of specialized bare-footwear built for Earth’s core biomes, where we find the most extreme expressions of climate, terrain, flora, and fauna. Designed in partnership with leading survival experts, and pressure-tested in both the lab and the environments they’re meant for, the ESC range is built to thrive in the planet’s wildest places. But have you ever wondered how we push the boundaries of footwear design? Take a peek behind the scenes as we embark on a journey of research and development. Discover the meticulous testing and rigorous experimentation that goes into crafting each ESC shoe. From biome-specific materials to biomechanically engineered soles, witness the convergence of tradition and technology in our quest to redefine barefoot exploration. It is in wild places where we feel most connected and our human nature thrives. ESC seeks to honour this symbiosis, and deepen our sense of connection. #VivoESC #BarefootInnovation #FootwearRnD #NatureInspiredDesign #Biomimicry #Barefoot #Vivobarefoot
