- A better-than-a-flip-flop sandal for everyday wear — the lacing system holds Xeros securely on your feet without the pressure points of thong flip flops, and without having to grip with your toes as you walk
- A lighter-than-a-sport-sandal option for hiking — the flexible soles let you use the terrain and feel the world, while offering a layer of protection. We’ve had ultralight backpackers through hike in Xeros on the AT, the PCT, the Camino… you name it
- A camp shoe — something to wear once you kick off your hiking boots at the camp site (FYI, some Xero wearers have emailed to say “I got up in the morning, put on my Xeros, and then realized I could just keep going in them!” and then sent their boots home š )
- The perfect travel footwear — since they pack so small and light, and can be used for so many activities, Xeros can lighten your load
- A beach shoe — water, sand, or a walk on the boardwalk… Xeros can handle ’em all.
- A watersports sandal — some stand up paddle boarders wear Xeros on the board. We know people in kayaks and canoes and rafts who like that they can jump in and out of the boat in their Xeros.
- A “natural movement” or “barefoot” running shoe — We’ve got runners of all ages who cover all distances, from a casual loop around the block to a 256k ultramarathon across Madagascar
- A zero-drop sandal — without a “heel lift” Xero shoes let your foot and body align naturally, as if you were barefoot
- A fun, stylish sandal — since our DIY sandal making kits let you use dozens of tying styles, and with our add-on beads and charms you can really bling out your Xeros, you can express yourself and be ready for hanging out with friends or a night on the town.
- A sandal that can fit YOUR foot — if most shoes don’t fit your foot shape, our DIY kit may be the only shoe you have that will!
Admittedly, Xero Shoes may not be best for sports with a lot of lateral movement, like tennis or basketball.
But for all those times you want to be out of shoes… or feel like you’re barefoot, but with just enough protection… and you appreciate a sandal with an affordable price point that’s extremely durable — do your other shoes come with a 5,000 mile sole warranty like ours? — then Xero Shoes might be just right for you.
