  3. What is Revivo?

    Our aim is to keep as many pairs of Vivo’s out of landfill and provide all products with an end of life solution. And ReVivo is our initial foray into this. Through our partnership with UK-based The Boot Repair Company we have designed a program to turn worn out footwear into revived product, reconditioning them for another life on a new pair of feet. Specialists in all aspects of footwear restoration, their highly skilled team use the latest machinery and eco-friendly products to process slightly worn once loved shoes and revive them back to their former glory.

    All styles have been inspected thoroughly and individually processed and graded, meeting our exacting standards and have been cleaned and refurbished accordingly. Customers can choose whether they wish to buy a product in Excellent, Great or Good condition when selecting their style and size of choice.

    Our ReVivo website provides all the information on how we repair our footwear, allowing you to buy a new pair of refurbished Vivo’s.

  8. When is stock due in?

  9. What do I do if my shoes are faulty? Do you offer a guarantee on products?

    We offer a 6-month manufacturing warranty for all our footwear. However, we understand that issues may arise with faulty products beyond this period. In such cases, we review them on a case-by-case basis to ensure customer satisfaction.

    Our warranty policy is subject to the following limitations:

    - It is at the discretion of our trained Customer Service team to determine if shoes fall within our manufacturing warranty.
    - All warranty claims must be accompanied by the original purchase receipt directly from our website or one of our authorized wholesalers.
    - Repaired or replaced products are covered for the remainder of the original warranty.

    Examples of what is not covered by the warranty:

    - Products acquired from aftermarket sources such as online auction sites, liquidators, consignment shops, private sellers, samples, or promotional products.
    - Improper fit. Fit is the responsibility of the owner and should be assured before wearing the product.
    - Comfort issues.
    - Frayed material, worn stitching, and worn soles due to normal wear.
    - Stitching or hardware failure due to tearing or other abnormal wearing accidents.
    - Modifications or alterations to the product.
    - Damage resulting from misuse, normal wear and tear, or damage incurred during storage or transportation.
    - Deterioration from water abuse.
    - Skateboard or bicycle abuse.
    - Cuts, scratches, burns, etc.
    - Shrinkage from overexposure to extreme heat.
    - Waterproof products: Maintaining the waterproof properties of your boots is essential to ensure they stay dry and comfortable. Like all waterproof products, maintenance is necessary. Although our waterproof styles feature a waterproofing membrane within the construction of the boot, the external waterproofing properties of the boots may gradually diminish. This is considered normal usage and is not covered under warranty.

  10. Fraudulent Websites
    It has been brought to our attention that there are illegitimate sites masquerading as Vivobarefoot Canada authorized distributors. These websites often look like outlet or clearance websites selling product that's deeply discounted. If you spot a website or a wholesaler you are not sure of, please contact our customer service team and do not purchase from them until we can confirm if the vendor is legitimate. Please note: Vivobarefoot Canada is not to be held responsible for fraudulent charges incurred.
