We’ve heard from people who’ve done almost everything: Walking Hiking — you’ll see people on the AT, the PCT, the Camino Running (yes, even running 100+ mile trail ultra marathons) Yoga — minimalist sandals are like having a yoga mat right under your feet at all times Paddleboarding — sometimes on the board, sometimes when […]
Well, clearly the easiest place is right here on our website. We ship all around the world. We have sold Xero Shoes to people in 97 countries including: India Australia Singapore Canada UK Japan There are physical stores in the US and all around the world that carry Xero Shoes, as well, including REI, Whole […]
Here are some comparisons between Xero Shoes and other sandal brands. Chaco Chacos are a popular brand of sport sandals… far from minimalist, though, they’re actually quite heavy, thick, and stiff. In fact 3 pairs of our Z-Trail sport sandal weigh less than one pair of a popular Chaco sandal. Teva Similar in many ways […]
In fact, yes. We have our best-selling sport sandal, the Z-Trail, available for kids. For toddlers — and we have hundreds and hundreds of parents who have done this with their kids — a great choice is our do-it-yourself kit. It’s a great family project to make your own sandals. One recommendation if you’re going […]
We have minimalist sandals for both men and women. Some of our products are unisex, like our Cloud and Genesis. The shape is designed to fit as many different feet as possible, but we’ve designed for both men and women. So the men’s size 39 for example, is the same as the women’s size 38. […]
People ask if we use leather — in the laces or the soles — for our minimalist sandals. The answer is No. We don’t for a couple of reasons. We like that we’re making a vegan sandal product—we don’t want to exclude people from being able to wear and enjoy Xero Shoes—but there’s also another […]
There are 3 different types of minimalist sandals. Thong style sandals sandals with lacing that comes up between your 1st and 2nd toe. Sport style sandals using webbing that comes across the top of your foot and includes a heel strap. “Hybrid” sandals that use different design elements — e.g. toe loops — to secure […]
The simple answer: Yes. Surprisingly so, in fact. But probably not for the reason you think. First of all, comfort can be a little misleading. Think about this: a Tempur-Pedic bed feels really comfortable when you lie on it. But try jumping on it… not so good for jumping. Even standing will quickly get you […]
They’re a new spin on mankind’s oldest footwear, made with modern materials. They allow your feet and legs can work the way nature intended. Your feet can move as if you were barefoot, but with a layer of protection. They’re durable, stylish, affordable, but really light and low-profile so it feels like you’re not wearing […]
The Colorado’s heel strap is a fixed length for extra durability. If the sizing isn’t ideal for you as a result, contact our Customer Happiness Team for assistance.
I'm an international ultramarathon athlete and I wear Xero Shoes for races. No blisters. No smelly feet. But I also use them as my everyday sandals (they look way cool!) and I recommend Xeros to everyone.Melissa Gosse
As a barefoot runner I’ve heard lots about huaraches but it wasn’t until Steven made me my first pair (I have two) that I understood how much fun they are to run distances in!Scott McLean
Thank you for making these amazing huaraches. I love how they feel. I forget they are there so much so I have worn them to bed a few times!Tasha Riggs
