I suspect these will be my new go-to black lace up “barefoot walking” shoes.

(What's this?)Overall a very nice looking and well made shoe, it would have been perfect if it was wider in the midfoot area, zeros are not really made for wider feet.

The shoe is fine I order two sizes I wanna return the one that doesn’t fit that’s all I wanna do why is Zappos making it so a problem to return

I love these shoes, since wearing them my feet no longer ache at night.

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?)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?)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.

(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.
Suzanne from Chicago on January 22, 2025
Rougher than expected, small on toe box, only fit when insole removed. Generally love Xeros but will stick to other styles.

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

(What's this?)The good: light weight shoe with what looks to be a grippy sole. However, encouraged pronation & fabric uncomfortable on bare feet.
Zappos Reviewer on September 12, 2024
The size and fit I got was fine. I wear these shoes twice a week for 1 hour each time to work out in a gym. They are not worn out on street except in and out of car to gym. I have had these shoes since November 2023 and the insides are wearing terribly. the sole shifts towards the heel and sticks out of the shoe. Since the sole keeps shifting, it feels rough under my feet. I feel that only wearing them two days a week for 1 hour each time, they should have worn better. I would like to return them so that you can see how poorly they are wearing.

(What's this?)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
The shoes are very comfortable and looks decent. The biggest problem for me is that one of the inserts keeps moving, I have to adjust it every few hours. Also the build quality looks like half the price or less.
Zappos Reviewer on July 12, 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.
