VIVOBAREFOOT ARE THE OFFICIAL SHOE SPONSOR OF THE ÖTILLÖ SWIMRUN WORLD SERIES
"One of the main reasons we decided to partner with ÖTILLÖ was the alignment of philosophies between brands and the family of people behind them: a mission to create a meaningful reconnection with nature and her natural laws."
- Galahad Clark | VIVOBAREFOOT Founder
Unparalleled in its emphasis on the exhilarating symbiosis between an endurance sport and breath-taking natural beauty, more Swimrun events are kicking off around the world than ever before.
This year, the VIVOBAREFOOT Events team will be island-hopping in tow, ready to showcase the barefoot Swimrun collection ‘Train·Race·Rest’ across both sides of the pond, everywhere from California to Cornwall.
Our team of barefoot designers are now 3 years in to their Swimrun journey, developing the ultimate collection of shoes to unleash the benefits of natural foot-freedom around the clock, so you can…
TRAIN in a non-restrictive exercise shoe to build natural foot strength.
RACE with the benefits of fully loaded sensory feedback.
REST with the freedom to connect with each step and enjoy that barefoot feel.
2018 marks our most exciting year to date, as we become the official sponsor of the World’s first Swimrun Team: Team Envol. Consisting of 28 athletes (That’s 14 Swimrun teams!) who will compete at multiple events across the season, including the infamous ÖTILLÖ World Series.
A rich-mix of elite athletes and newcomers to the sport, the team have been training throughout the winter (regardless of the weather!) and are ready to do us proud in the months ahead, with high hopes for propelling VIVOBAREFOOT’s iconic orange sole onto the podium.
The season ahead promises to indulge us with the most beautiful, inspiring and inclusive year to date… we hope to see you there!
TAKE THE PLUNGE
Swimrun is for everyone, not just the elite athletes! Each ÖTILLÖ event features a ‘sprint’ race, open to beginners and maxing out at around 16km… the perfect entry-level expedition for those wishing for a summer challenge.
