ENTER VIVOBIOME - THE FUTURE IS AT OUR FEET
A vision for a radical scan-to-print circular bare-foot-wear system that reimagines how footwear is designed and made.
Made-to-order, made-to-measure, made locally and made to be re-made. This is bare-foot-wear that enables us to reconnect with our natural potential.

WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED
FROM VISION TOWARDS A REALITY
The world doesn’t need new shoes. It needs a new system. VivoBiome’s North Star is 3D printed footwear that’s made to order, in small on-shore factories, with a fully bespoke fit. And, once the footwear’s no longer needed, they must be fully circular; either being recycled into a new pair or compostable and returned to nature.
But we’re not there yet. Read about Co-Founder Asher Clark’s vision for VivoBiome and our progress in link below.

The world’s first barefoot, 3D-printed, industrially compostable footwear.
We’re thrilled to announce our groundbreaking partnership with materials science company Balena, enabling us to expand our already radical VivoBiome vision and work towards bringing fully compostable 3D printed footwear to the market in 2025.

one step closer to circular footwear with BioCir®flex.
This pioneering footwear is made with BioCir®flex: a bio-based, recyclable, industrially compostable thermoplastic. It’s durable, flexible, scalable for mass production, and biodegradable in industrial composting facilities. The first prototypes are here and we’ll start thorough on-foot testing in early 2024.

REVOLUTIONS NEED PIONEERS
Our vision is for a scan-to-print circular bare-footwear system. But we’re not there yet. The product our Pioneers are testing is a prototype of the Biome Hybrid - a combination of 3D printed sole and 3D knitted upper and comes in two data-driven width fittings per shoe size. Each Pioneer’s perfect size and width has been determined by two 3D foot scans.
Pioneers are playing a crucial role in helping us realise our vision, moving us from three data-driven width fittings per size to a fully bespoke fit, from offshore manufacturing to locally made and from testing end of life solutions to full circularity.

TESTING, TESTING!
In June 2023, we shared our vision for a scan-to-print circular footwear solution and asked for your help to make that vision a reality. 3800 of your applied, only 176 were recruited.
Our Pioneers scanned their feet, received their first pairs of prototype Biome Hybrids and put them through their paces.
And then told us what they really thought.
