Vivobarefoot - Hydra ESC

Just about every other barefoot shoe is not going to perform well in the environments you mentioned. Companies make barefoot boots for that. I plan to use them for walking the dog on trails, and maybe trail running on dry days. Vivo hydraesc are my go to trail running shoe currently.

Vivos with the Michelin tread are extremely durable. I tore shoes to shit in about 3/4 months. I play a ton. That’s an important factor. My vivos are going stronger after a year.

not sure if they fit the criteria but I run in Vivobarefoot Hydra ESC and they are absolutely bonkers on pretty much any surface and condition. Absolutely love them.

It seems like you've just described the Vivo Hydra ESC. You might find [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/barefootshoestalk/s/wyTRqhtcUB) old post of mine interesting. I still routinely pack in my boots this way. And I can actually fit my Vivo Jungle ESC in the exact same packing cube, you just need to fold the top half of the uppers to the side. Well still keeping room for my Wildling Nebula, which I use as camp shoes and as slippers.

I got some Vivo Barefoot trail shoes and I've been loving them. If you're not used to wearing minimalist shoes then it won't be fun at first, but they do help strengthen foot muscles that don't get used with normal shoes.

I wear minimalist/barefoot/zero drop shoes day to day. I also hiked 1300 miles of PCT including all of JMT (well, the large part that overlaps) wearing a mix of Altras and Topos. I much prefer the Topos as simply much more durable and a bit more supportive, well worth the small weight penalty. Currently rocking the Traverse model. The year after my big hike, I attempted to hike a pretty tough 120-mile section "off the couch" using Vivo barefoot shoes instead of tried-and-true Topos. It was a total disaster. By mile 13, the soles of my feet were two giant blister cushions. I hobbled out the next day nearly crying from pain and hitched home, utterly defeated. Turns out padding and isolation from scorching hot jagged/sloped black basalt surfaces is important. So yeah, as u/_m2thet says, barefoot is good for maintenance of foot strength and gentle tread in normal, less demanding life conditions. Then when you put your feet to a hard test, you still want all the protection you can get.

I’ve played in Solomons, adidas terrex, and vivo barefoot, all of them have lasted well. Having waterproof shoes in morning dew is great but my form and footwork is better in barefoot shoes. I have xero 360’s ordered for disc golf and tennis. Hopefully they work well
