For some people, the Naboso Trail can be too stimulating at first. No problem. Get a THIN pair of socks and wear those with your Naboso Trail at first. When you feel ready, try 5-10 minutes without socks. Over time, by listening to your body, you can build up the amount of time and the […]
In short, yes. Though it may take you some time to work up to wearing your Naboso Trail sandals all day. No need to push yourself. Do what’s comfortable (and, over time, what’s comfortable will “expand”).
It will depend on you. Some people will put them on and wear them all day, right away. Others will find that too stimulating. Listen to your body and “be your own coach.” Wear them for 20-30 minutes and see how you feel. If that felt good, add some more time. If it ever feels […]
We design all of our shoes here in Colorado. Our manufacturing is responsibly and ethically done in China. The factories we use treat and pay their workers exceptionally well. We have Xero team members visiting the factories on a regular basis. Companies much larger than ours use these same factories and have spent millions of […]
Shoe sizing, especially online, is not a perfect process. That’s why we offer exchanges. We have sizing instructions at the bottom of the product description for the Cassie. The Cassie fits “true-to-size” or a TINY bit small. So you’ll probably be okay selecting your “usual” shoe size. If you think you’re “between sizes,” go up […]

You can hand wash them with a mild soap and water mixture. The canvas is quite durable, and should come clean easily with a little scrubbing. DO NOT place your Cassies in the dryer when you are finished cleaning, let them air dry
Though the Cassie is designed as a casual shoe, it’s certainly capable of much more than just hanging out. We’ve had people do all kinds of outrageous activities in them so far, but it’s up to your best judgment what you believe they are capable of handling. So, use your common sense and have fun
No, the Cassie is a canvas shoe, and will absorb any water it encounters. It is a light canvas, though, and should dry pretty fast after you take them off. Also, you can treat the Cassie with an aftermarket waterproofing spray… but that will make them a bit less flexible.
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
