Grace Menendez teaches yoga and is a personal trainer.
And now she adds “Xero Hero” to her list of skills 😉
Says Grace:
As soon as they arrived I strapped them to my feet and took these bad boys for a walk around New York City. It was LOVE after first wear! Most shoes require a break-in period, but these required none. They are immediately comfortable! They stayed pretty snug even after my feet began to sweat and I had no blisters after wearing them all day.
One thing I love is that Grace discovered how Xero Shoes can become your step-by-step coach:
If you’re not accustomed to the minimalist sole, it may take a bit to adjust to feeling almost every pebble under your foot. While this seems like a bummer, it mostly just makes you more aware of your gait. I began to walk more evenly and gracefully, becoming much more aware of where I was stepping. Ideally the more you wear them, the stronger your feet will become!
And, of course, Grace put her Z-Trek sandals to the biggest test: “How do they look with a cute dress?”
I’m not sure it’s the barefoot-inspired sandals that are what’s cute in that picture, but I thing Grace proved her point 😉
