Radix: Matcha Latte
DESCRIPTION
Radix (noun): from Latin, meaning root.
The premier barefoot shoe designed specifically for powerlifters.
- 20% thinner than the leading barefoot shoe.
- 25% lighter than the average powerlifting shoe.
- Best-in-class traction provided by our all-new Novus™ Griptech rubber compound.
- Confidence-inspiring stability thanks to the full body TPU cage and multi-layered heel support.
- The wide toe box, zero heel-to-toe drop, and flexible outsole encourage natural movement and strengthens foot muscles.
It offers all of the benefits of a true minimalist barefoot shoe, but offers specific advantages tailored for strength training performance.
Our stickiest and most supportive model, Radix is extremely versatile and is perfect for someone who wants one shoe that can perform for every exercise.
SIZING RECOMMENDATIONS
For most customers, Radix fits true to US shoe size, but some customers (particularly in smaller sizes 35-40) may find it runs a half size small.
If between sizes, we recommend ordering the next size up for more comfort. Go with the smaller size if you prefer a snug fit in your lifting footwear, or you prefer to remove the insole.
If you are a returning customer, we recommend using the new size guide for Radix instead of going by your previous NL size, in case sizing has been adjusted slightly.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Hand Wash: Soak in a mixture of cold water and liquid laundry detergent. Use a soft bristle toothbrush to scrub the upper, then the sole. Once clean, rinse and air dry.
Do not tumble dry.

Health-Conscious Footwear
WIDE TOE BOX
Your feet were not designed to fit into pointed shoes. Foot-shaped shoes ensure that your biological stabilizers, or toes, have ample room to splay and properly grip the floor, which improves balance and coordination.
ZERO HEEL-TO-TOE DROP
Excessive arch support and elevated heels are making our feet weaker. Radix is perfectly flat from heel to toe, which encourages natural movement patterns and lets your feet do what they were designed to do. This means healthier feet and stronger foot muscles.
a true barefoot experience
Radix is constructed using a flexible rubber outsole that bends and moves with you, encouraging natural movement patterns, strengthening foot muscles, and supporting positive foot health.
Thanks to our proprietary Novus™ Griptech Rubber Compound, the outsole offers industry leading traction, without compromising durability, stability, flexibility, or sensory feedback.
Novus™ Grip Tech
The high performance Radix outsole is 2mm thin, with a 1.3mm tread depth. The total stack height of only 3.3mm makes Radix the thinnest and most sensory barefoot shoe on the market.
Constructed of a specially formulated high-friction rubber compound arranged in our signature herringbone traction pattern, the Radix sole aggressively bites into the ground surface and creates a powerful foundation from which you can execute your heaviest lifts.
Customer Reviews
Worm about 10 times now and they are pretty solid. I like the wide toe box and the thin laces. This is a comfortable flat if you have wide feet, and significantly better pricing than Vivo’s. Tongue slides around under the laces, and does not stay centred - not a big deal. No noticeable manufacturer defects or unusual lack of durability.
Exactly as expected, basically barefoot. Wide toe box is very nice to be able to fan toes for balance. Shoes are not too loose on feet.
Very happy with product
I bought my girlfriend a pair for her birthday and when she said she really liked them, I had to grab myself a pair. We have been lifting in Vans for as long as we have trained in powerlifting and thought those were the end-all-be-all shoe but the Radix are on a whole other level. You really feel the floor on your big 3 lifts as if you're barefoot yet the shoe is versatile enough to where you don't need to change back into another pair for your accessory lifts. On top of that, we can go out to eat or run to the store afterwards! How cool! We both pull conventional and have a very positive experience overall on deadlifts (I know this is the information I looked for in the reviews when I was shopping around).
fit as expected/true to size, love them. I wear them in my home gym to increase grip during lifts (previously I just worked out in my socks). definitely would recommend/buy again.
I like these better than the Nobull shoes I was lifting in prior. These have a wider toe box and are extremely comfortable. Only negative is that the shoe laces arrived stained/discolored.
