Great looking as well as comfortable, I was very happy with these K-Swiss shoes. They fit well out of the box, are wide enough for my fairly wide feet. Very sharp. I'm looking for other colors!

These shoes are absolutely incredible. They came in one day they fit perfectly, and they are the most comfy shoes that I’ve ever owned. The leather on them is a bit shiny so they look really new and modern and they’re really light so you’re able to stand on your feet all day walk around and they’re really comfy. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for all leather shoes.

For the cost/drip ratio, you cannot beat these kicks.
Surprisingly comfortable for an inexpensive shoe that some may consider only for aesthetics.
If you are concerned about creasing the toe, buy toe cap protectors at the same time as it (crease) will show after very little use.
I bought toe caps and it's kept it straight with no loss in comfort.
I always get tons of compliments on these shoes, and they feel great.
There are some minor craftsmanship details that look rough on close inspection but, nothing most people would ever notice and I nothing I would have any issue with for the price.
I have seem similar shoes for 10x the price, and you would not know the difference from 1m away.
I will likely buy another pair to store away, for whenever these end up wearing out.

This review is based on trying them on once.
I really like this shoe. It's very comfortable for an "old school sneaker", It has a removable insole with surprisingly good arch support and more cushioning then you'll find in a typical canvas sneaker. They're also very soft and won't rub your ankles raw. Unfortunately, I can't justify keeping them, but I find it difficult sending them back, because I like them so much (i.e. only so much closet room for shoes.)
The sizing is very accurate. They may run a little on the large side, but that's what I'd want, so I could wear them with heavy socks in Winter months. So, I disagree with those who suggest sizing up or down, because they're actually quite accurate (they're definitely not too small and I don't think they're even close to being too large, either.) The Teva brand used to run all over the place with sizing, but the last few pair I've owned and have been really consistent and accurate.
I didn't try them on a bike, but I suspect that they're very good bike riding shoes, because the soles are quite firm. In fact, I would have liked them better if the sole wasn't so firm, but I expected them to be firm as bike riding shoes. Overall, I think they're very nice sneakers, but I'm looking for something a little more fashion oriented.

My husband had a red pair and so I got him the blue ones. He loves them. They are durable and comfortable.

Great shoe, It just was a little big.
Reviewer Jack Sindoni
Very good working shoes.

I've bought several pairs of the Men's Jazz Low Pro and I really like this shoe. The classic Saucony sneakers are sharp looking, but in my opinion, they don't provide anywhere near the support the Jazz Low Pro offers. Shoe is perfectly snug and there are a ton of really good looking color combinations for this style offered by Saucony.

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.)
