Vivobarefoot Tracker Forest Esc Men's

The Tracker Forest Esc is expected to fit true to size based on the official Vivobarefoot website.

Vivobarefoot uses gendered European sizing. This means a men’s 41 and a women’s 41 are the same length, but the men’s are wider and taller throughout, and the women’s sizing is shallower and narrower.

Fit Notes:

• Since the Tracker Forest Esc is primarily leather, it is expected to stretch over time
• Vivobarefoot tends to fit customers with slope-shaped feet, which means having a prominent big toe with subsequent toes declining in length.
• The Tracker Forest Esc is expected to best fit customers with lower volume feet
• Due to the lacing mechanism, the Tracker Forest Esc is adjustable with laces

As with most Vivobarefoot models, you are sure to get the most optimal groundfeel without having to compromise on comfort, durability and support and the Tracker Forest Esc is no exception to this rule.

The Outdoor Esc Michelin© Outsole features a 2.5mm base with 7mm lugs, designed to enhance ground feel and grip. Constructed from high-performance rubber with a rugged off-trail lug pattern, it delivers reliable traction even in tough conditions. The toe lugs act like claws on ascents, while the heel lug ensures crucial braking for steep descents.

According to Vivobarefoot's cleaning guide, you should brush off any mud and clean with a damp cloth. To dry the shoes, you must remove the insole and dry at room temperature while making sure to keep the insoles out of direct sunlight and avoid putting them on a radiator.

In terms of aftercare, Vivobarefoot recommends using the Renapur Leather Balsam to nourish the leather, restore the colour and prevent drying out and cracking. 

Alternatively, Cool East Market sells Nikwax to help treat leather and fabric shoes.

The Tracker Forest Esc is crafted for adventurous spirits and rugged landscapes. This enhanced version of the classic Tracker is built with premium leather treated for exceptional water resistance. This makes it the perfect shoe to take out on a tough and rugged hike with rocky roads and slippery rocks. The Tracker Forest Esc Michelin© sole will keep you grounded in the most challenging forest and off-road environments on Earth.
