Xero Shoes

Xero Shoes Logo
Born in Boulder, Colorado, in 2009, Xero Shoes continues to revolutionize the footwear industry by offering innovative barefoot shoes, boots, and sandals. Crafted with the Xero Shoes’ DNA – wider, foot-shaped toe boxes and zero-drop, flexible soles, they are designed to mimic the natural, barefoot experience. Your feet are meant to bend, flex, move, and feel. Xero Shoes lets them do that with our collection of radically lightweight shoes, boots and sandals designed with a foot-first philosophy. From mountain trails to urban jungles, Xero Shoes help you... Live Life Feet First™ In a saturated footwear market, husband and wife Steven Sashen and Lena Phoenix differentiated their shoe brand, focusing on natural movement. Steven, a Masters All-American sprinter, struggled with running injuries until he started training barefoot. Once his form changed, his injuries disappeared, and he couldn’t go back to wearing “normal shoes.” They made DIY sandals, which quickly became popular in their Boulder community. The couple founded Xero Shoes in 2009 in a spare room in their house.

I can tell my feet are getting exercise when I walk! These are surprisingly comfortable for a barefoot shoe.

Love these shoes! I have been looking for a functionally barefoot shoe that doesn't "look" like a barefoot shoe and I have finally found my favorite pair! The only complaint is I need longer shoe strings as I have a high/thick midfoot but I dont mind purchasing some to replace and often have to do this with my shoes.

I wear a 5.5 in nearly everything, I ordered these new to the brand. At first trying them on I thought they may be just too perfectly sized to my foot (my toe felt slightly too close) but decided to keep them and I am glad I did because that feeling went away and they are the perfect shoe! I have been wearing Palladium and Doc Martens for years and my body was feeling it, these have made me rethink my footwear choices.

Size was too small. Not really a shoe. Purchased two sizes. Neither fit well. These are almost socks. Purchased a pair of Whittin shoes on Amazon and they are amazing and like 40 bucks. Those are shies ans perfect. Would NOT recommend Xero shoes.

Fantastic daily shoe and perfect for those with orthotics. I keep buying different versions because I like them so much.

These shoes are so comfortable. I use them for work an often have to walk and be on my feet a lot. They wore out a lot quicker than a pair of Merrell trail running shoes I had. But honestly I'm going to buy another pair of Xero shoes and not the Merrell's again because the Xero's are more comfortable than the Merrell;s

After trying to decipher the Xero size charts and reading reviews I decided to order a 9.5 which is the size I wear regardless of brand. They are too small! My toes press against the front of the toe box.

First time trying zero depth shoes. Love the generous toe box. Wore them to a Silver Sneakers workout and they felt great.

I didn't really like the feel of the Prio. I ordered 3 different Xero shoes to try and compare, and this was my least favorite. It fits true to size, but it felt very thick everywhere, around my ankle, the whole shoe and toe box. So much padding! For a petite, low volume foot, I just felt like I was wearing a clown shoe. The HFS was awesome (although it ran half size small); it was so comfortable on my foot, just felt like I wasn't even wearing a shoe at all! However, since it will be my first barefoot shoe, I opted to keep the 360, as it is also very comfortable, will be better for cross training, and this way I can test out running in a barefoot shoe with a bit more cushion on the sole. Prio runs true to size, as does 360. HFS ran a half size smaller than usual. Prio and 360 fit me in 5.5, which is my usual size (for example I wear 5.5 in Brooks running shoes). Had I wanted to keep the HFS, I would have had to re-order it in a 6.

Looked cute, width fine, but unfortunately too short - my toes were right up against the front of the shoe.

Xero shoes are not made for someone with narrow feet. The toe box is also too square for someone with longer toes.

my first try at minimalist shoes. 0mm heals, very little padding in soles. They do have padding around the ankles which allows me to wear them even though I have narrow feet.

These shoes are great for the gym, with lots of room in the toe box and minimal padding to make you feel like your feet are fully engaged.

These feel long and narrow. I think they are best for people with long, skinny feet. There really is "zero" to them, especially in the sole and all-around support surrounding your shoe. I prefer the Topo or Altra where there is zero drop but it still feels like you have a shoe on.

These shoes are awesome! I'm transitioning all my footwear to barefoot style shoes and I was nervous with running shoes. These are comfortable, and don't stick out as barefoot shoes style wise like some do. They look like any other shoe but don't restrict your feet. You can really feel the road when you run in them which I'm getting used to. Anya's Reviews on Pinterest is a great resource for barefoot shoe info.

Perfect for Indoor Rowing! They are flat, hard and a rounded toe, which is perfect for my wider feet.

Cute style and width was comfortable, allowing foot to spread out. The material in the sole was not smooth. Felt hard and the front of the shoe rounded off the ground unlike many of the barefoot shoes.
