HIKE, TREK AND EXPEDITION IN ALL CONDITIONS AND TERRAINS
The Tracker Forest ESC is for wild hiking, trekking and expeditions – optimised for temperate forests, but highly versatile, offering peak performance in many environments.
The wild hide leather is naturally breathable and water-resistant, allowing advanced thermoregulation and comfort in variable conditions. The Michelin outsole gives unparalleled grip in a variety of terrains. Fluro lining highlights unwanted flora or fauna before putting on your boots. And textured laces ensure secure lacing.
OFF-TRAIL EXTREME: Extreme traction for extreme terrains, still with plenty of barefoot feeling to connect to nature.
WET & MUDDY: No more slipping and sliding. Keeping feet firmly rooted on soft, wet and muddy terrain.
FIT, FEEL, FLEX: For natural stability, natural sensory feedback and natural strength.
WHY VIVOBAREFOOT IS DIFFERENT
Vivobarefoot shoes are designed to let your feet move naturally. With a wide toe box, thin flexible sole, and zero-drop platform, they allow your feet to function the way they were designed to. Traditional shoes often add cushioning and structure that can reduce natural movement and sensory feedback.

It’s an all time boot that gets better with age. As a wilderness guide I needed a light high performance shoe that would last longer than a single trekking season and give me no little problems on trail.
My Forest ESCs are onto their 5th season, which is insane! They are about to get sent back to become a proud revivo member because the only thing that’s forcing me to replace is the sole wearing out on my foot pad. After 5 years living and working in these shoes that’s pretty unbelievable. The leather hide gets softer as you go and moulds to your foot shape like some kind of shoe alchemy. This truly is the GOAT 🙌🏼
Buy true to size, be prepared for them to feel amazing out of the box but if you’re like me and they are a light squeeze around the upper forefoot, fear not they will mould around your feet as you wear them in and become your best mates.
After 8 days over 100km traveled and full swimming these things performed beyond expectations. Insane grip, and of course flexible, can fully plantarflex and Doris flex, super low to the grips
Ground so crazy stable.
Tips, when lacing up flex your toes as much as possible to get best fit.
Very lightweight hiking boots and lots of feedback from the ground. Have used it for multi day hikes and has endured a beating for it's short life so far. Looking forward to exploring many more places around Australia with them.
I just love my new shoes. I have been wearing them to work everyday to break them in for hiking. But they are so comfortable that they really don’t need to be broken in. I just wear them as much as possible because I adore them.
When my first pair arrived, they were too small for me. Once I got sorted and arranged another fitting, I returned the small ones and back came the exact right size. Haven't had them on the trail yet but feel so good to walk around in. Sole Mechanics were great to deal with
