3. Terra Plana. 254 Elizabeth Street, SoHo. Terra Plana Vivo barefoot shoes are a minimalist approach to casual shoes. With Vivos, you have an ultra thin 3 mm padding between you and the ground. Their advertising claims humans evolved to walk barefoot, not in thick cushioned shoes. Walking in thin soled shoes you learn to step lighter which is better on your knees, back, and shoulders. The padding from your old thick sole shoes are gone, so you feel vibrations much more and lighten your step to prevent harsh landings. Terra Plans are preferred by runners. Runners believe the form these shoes require you to run in, running on the balls of your feet with no heel touch, are the way humans were designed to run and is much more comfortable and healthier for your body.
