Vivobarefoot Tracker Leather AT Low II Mens Boots - Barefoot Hiking, Walking and Trekking Boots - in Bracken 6 is Vivobarefoot's answer to serious outdoor terrain — a zero-drop, wide-toe-box option built for those who want genuine ground connection on trail. The tracker leather at low ii reimagines our proven hiking boot in a lower cut for greater mobility and freedom – and now upgraded with a leather rand for better durability at key stress points. Crafted from breathable Wild Hide leather with natural.
Against Xero Shoes, the Tracker holds its own on grip and durability, with the Vivobarefoot outsole performing particularly well on mixed terrain. Groundies offers lighter alternatives for faster-packing, but fewer options in the structured boot category. Cross-brand comparison is the strength of a marketplace like this — worth browsing the trail collection to weigh up the full picture.
The Tracker Leather AT Low II Mens Boots - Barefoot Hiking, Walking and Trekking Boots - in Bracken 6 fits true to size for most men, with a wide toe box and low-to-medium volume. The wide toe box is a consistent feature across all Vivobarefoot models and allows natural toe splay from the outset. Expect a short adjustment period if switching from conventional footwear.
What we like: Wide toe box preserved in technical footwear; zero-drop geometry encourages natural gait on uneven ground; durable construction suited to repeated use. Worth considering: Requires a transition period for those used to cushioned hiking boots; not ideal for very wet or snow conditions unless waterproofed.
Q: Is this suitable for hiking with a heavy pack?
A: Yes — the zero-drop geometry works well under load, encouraging a natural gait. Those coming from heavily cushioned boots should transition gradually.
Q: How waterproof is this shoe?
A: Waterproofing varies by model — check the specific upper material. Leather versions handle wet conditions better than textile. For prolonged wet use, a waterproofing treatment is recommended.
Q: How does it compare to other Vivobarefoot trail options?
A: Each trail model targets a different use case — the Tracker family suits colder and wetter conditions, the Primus Trail range is lighter for warmer trail running. Browse the trail collection for a side-by-side view.
