Product Description

“I hated the way hiking boots looked and felt… until I found these. My feet stay protected, and I LOVE the style.” – Ed M.

RIDGEWAY – Look Good On and Off the Trail

Combine the allure of retro style with cutting-edge barefoot-friendly technology, and you get the Ridgeway – a hiking boot with a rugged canvas upper with suede accents. It’s ready to conquer technical trails with friends and comfortable enough to enjoy a beer afterward.

RWHM-FNRK_Ridgeway_Fallen-Rock_Cerebral_02120.jpg

Your Wet Weather Companion

The Ridgeway is not just stylish and comfortable; it’s also waterproof, with a fully seam-sealed inner bootie, gusseted tongue, and waterproof membrane.

A “Midsole Illusion”

It might look like the Ridgeway has a thick midsole. Actually, we took our embedded TrailFoam layer (that evens out the bumps) and wrapped it around the upper giving the illusion of thickness. You’ll still enjoy the flexibility and natural movement you expect from Xero Shoes.

Grippy and Lightweight

Confidently navigate the terrain with an aggressive trail-ready lugged outsole.

At just 369 grams (M42), the Ridgeway is lighter than most technical boots, but even lighter than many running shoes.

Embrace brisk mountain mornings, wet trails, or cozy evenings by the fire with the confidence that your Ridgeway boots have your back.

WE MAKE HIKING SHOES SO COMFORTABLE, YOU’LL FORGET THEY’RE EVEN ON.

If your feet don’t feel as good at the end of the day as they did in the beginning, you haven’t tried the Ridgeway.

Life-changing comfort and superior performance come from letting your feet do what’s natural – bend, move, flex and feel.

All Xero Shoes feature a wider, foot-shaped toe box that lets your toes spread and relax, a non-elevated “zero drop” heel for proper posture, low-to-the-ground design for perfect balance and agility, and a flexible sole that gives you “just right” protection so you can bend, move, flex, and Live Life Feet First!

Very satisfied!

I got a pair of this as a present from my wife after she got a pair for herself. We are very satisfied and often comment during hikes how great we find the boots to be. Highly recommended! We use them equally in summer or the depth of winter and our feet somehow stay warm. Such is our satisfaction that we got a pair for my father in law as a Christmas gift...

Great shoes and great service

Since I discovered Xero shoes, I have been wearing them exclusively. The winter model is simply the best.

Good for hiking, winter, and rainy season

I bought these boots over a year ago and this is the second winter I've used them. I must say I'm very happy with them! They are comfortable, waterproof, cool enough to wear in the city or as winter boots, and good for hiking. For barefoot puritarians: they are a bit stiffer or thicker sole compared to other styles of xeroshoes or other barefoot brands. However, I think they still provide very good ground feedback and are perfect for very long walks/hikes where more flexible and thinner shoes might have been too much for some people. I use them mainly as my winter boots and for very cold days I can also wear my wool socks inside and still have enough space for my toes. They keep my feet dry in the very rainy german winters.
