5Rated 5 stars out of 5

A friend raved about her Xero shoes so I had to try them for myself. She's right, they are very comfortable because of the wide toe box and good arch support. I wear a 9 or 9.5 M depending on the shoe style. The 9.5 is too big for me so I'll exchange it for a 9. And they're sporty and well made.

The wide toe box is fantastic! I use them for the gym/lifting. So I have to lace them a little snug so my feet don't slide around, even so, they still feel comfortable. If you need arch support, make sure to figure out inserts before you buy. This specific model doesn't feel like the best street shoes. The materials feel a bit delicate, and time will tell if they hold up. It's still a solid purchase, and I would highly recommend these shoes.

The fit is great, and super comfortable. The only issue is very little arch support. I inserted an arch support from another tennis shoe I have, and that made it perfect. I needed a sneaker for tennis and pickleball with a generous toe box, but not a wide width at the rest of the shoe, and these will be just right.

Like the shoes. Very light and they feel like moccasins

(What's this?)The shoes I received were to small in length, width was tight but wearable, so I sent them back. I'll let you know once I receive the replacement. I went with a half size up.

Out of the box the Prio Neo felt fantastic, buying online and not being able to try shoes is always challenging however the Pro Neo fit great and I am looking forward to trying them out in my training. I swing kettlebells and always train barefoot but wanted find a shoe that is as close to that type of grounging as possible. These shoes feel very natural, fit well and give me that stable feeling

Great, but had to put own cushion in for comfort. This shoe doesn’t have enough cushion to support jumps. I just bought my own foam and cut out the size I needed. Depending on your weight, you may need a thicker foam.

(What's this?)I can tell my feet are getting exercise when I walk! These are surprisingly comfortable for a barefoot shoe.

(What's this?)bought as a gift. recipient normally wears a size 8 in Altras but wanted to try these Xeros for an upcoming trip. he says they're ok but the fit is tight, not quite true to size and causing some pain. might need a half size larger. he already wore them for a week and is still hoping they break in

(What's this?)Wide toe box my ass.

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.

Great shoes, bought as cycling shoes and they have a very good grip ( open pedal, no cage or clips). As for size, I wear 10.5 in Topo and these are 10.5 and are dead on if that helps. Overall a great show, my first pair of Xero, and will be buying more. I also wore them once for workout, but did not care for the flat sole for workout, but excellent for cycling and love the wide toe box

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.

(What's this?)I purchased this sneaker for two reasons: I wanted zero lift, and an ample toe box. This has both. Love these shoes. Despite no lift, they are very comfortable, but they will take some getting used to. Your legs will ache for a bit as your body adjusts to being almost barefoot.

(What's this?)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.

(What's this?)Already had a pair in a different color. Obviously very pleased or wouldn't have bought another pair. Wide toe box and minimalist style is great.

IF you like barefoot shoes these are pretty good. The soles are thicker than most barefoot soles I've had (like Merrel), but this is comfortable and my feet love it. I'm going to get the hiking version as well
Zappos Reviewer on September 19, 2024
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

I just misjudged my feet. these were too large.
Zappos Reviewer on July 17, 2024
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.

(What's this?)Felt like wearing no shoes! lots of freedom! two insoles allow for the amount of cushion desired.

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

(What's this?)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.
