    • As close to barefoot as you can get in a sneaker.
Size: 9.5 Color: Black
Love these shoes. Zero lift and a wide toe box provide almost barefoot like comfort. These lace up snugly without being too tight, unlike some other minimalist shoes I've owned in the past. So far, they seem durable. Great for archers or anyone who needs a solid footing for their sport.

Excellent fit as all 4 of my xeros have been ...10.5 across the board don't know what the deal with ppl saying they have inconsistent sizing etc ?! ....anyways ...classic mesh mid sole deal with the mesh removable insoles. I believe you could wear xero shoes without the insoles if you want and it not effect the wicking performance...they are nice sturdy but flexible, no cushioning which is what I wanted my scrambler evo and Ridgeway models are for cushion....these are great for house shoes, errands, working out, I'm sure I could hike these as well although the scrambler evo is superior in those regards ... show more

    • Affordable comfortable. Surprisingly adequate!
Size: 13 Color: Black
Cheap, lightweight not well made but unusually comfortable, and good for walking on dry, reasonably smooth surfaces, such as an indoor shopping mall. Cheap as they are, they are great! A surprise. Not weather resistant, or water proof but super toe space and very breathable.

Favorite shoe so far (just bought another pair), super comfortable, but do think the soles wear too fast. Got maybe 1000-1500 miles before they were blister factories, and their site does state like a 5k mile warranty so felt a little low on lifespan compared to brand marketing Otherwise pretty good, no forced arches or weird drop, almost like going barefoot. Gate is good when walking Fits well, maybe a touch cramped in toes. And pretty decent look for a barefoot shoe ... show more

    • Bought after KoT recommended. Go down a size
Size: 10.5 Color: Lunar
Bought these after they were recommended by Knees Over Toes Guy. Typical shoes (unnaturally) bunch your toes together and give you a raised heel. I think narrow toe boxes are meant to look better as they make your foot appear slender and they also *seem* to emulate and create an ideal pushing motion of your foot. Raised heels are likely to be used to exaggerate your foots position to push off the ball of your foot. These are just my thoughts. The PROBLEM with narrow toe boxes is that they deform your feet and cause bunions. Raised heels on shoes shorten the length of your Achilles’ tendon, since it does not have to be elongated as much when the heel is raised. These aren’t opinions. Raised heels also makes you more vulnerable to rolling you ankle AND the rolls will be worse, as your heel is further from the ground. This is proven, see KoT guy and SquatU videos on this. Now that I explained how typical shoes work, Here is how these shoes function: These shoes do Not Have an elevated heel. They do have a toe box that is shaped to fit your foot in a more natural shape. This enables you to use your foot like a tripod and get maximum stability from your foot. This is great for weight lifters. The flat bottom profile returns your Achilles’ tendon length to its natural state and promotes better ankle mobility, which is pivotal to a deep squat. (If your ankle mobility is less than ideal, try elevating your heel on some plates.) I have always ordered shoes too big because I did not like the feeling of my toes touching the sides of my shoes. I used to wear 11-12 shoes so my I could get a wider shoe at expense of having extra space at the end. I ordered 11’s of this shoe and they had far too much space at the end. I returned for 10.5’s and they fit much better. I don’t need extra space at the end of the shoe. Also, the extra space causes your foot to slide in your shoe, creating unnecessary calluses. Cons: These shoes certainly aren’t the most stylish. Could be worse but they aren’t anything to brag about. The wide toe box looks unnatural since most ppl wear narrow shoes. The shoes are quite thin. This is great for foot awareness as much of that is lost with shoes on, but I cannot wear these walking on rocks or roots, as you’ll feel every one. Concrete is not terrible but your feet weren’t really made to walk on such a hard material so more cushion would be helpful. Running in these shoes puts a great deal of force on your calves. I wear these at the gym and walking around the store and flat areas. My feet are noticeably stronger and I can actually feel the ground under my feet with them on. I’m much more aware of how my feet are moving and reacting. My balance has improved drastically. KoT guy said he used these for basketball. I thought he was crazy until I tried it. I’ve never worn low top shoes for basketball due to my previously weak ankles. Now these are my basketball shoe. They have great tread. (KoT guy is currently developing wide toe, zero drop basketball shoes with a YouTube sneaker head that will have a thicker sole. I will buy them when they are released). I recommend these for everyone, but I do think it’s important you understand the “why” of the shoes, their use cases, and how they react on some terrain. ... show more

Review Image by Brenda Humphreys
I bought these Xero Crosstraining shoes for my husband when I first started getting into barefoot running and minimalist shoes. He was curious about them and wanted to try a pair for himself. He’s been wearing them for over a year now, mainly for hiking and casual wear, and he still says every single time he puts them on that they’re “the most comfortable shoes he’s ever worn.” He has always preferred shoes with a wide toe box (even before trying minimalist styles), so his feet didn’t require much adjustment. I’ve noticed that he actually stands up straighter in these — in his other shoes with even a small heel, he tended to lean forward a bit. For hiking, he used to wear heavy boots with thick soles and a higher heel, and he never tied them properly — the laces were always loose, which never made sense to me. But with these Xero shoes, he ties them snugly and loves the way he can feel the ground beneath his feet. The thinner sole provides him with better balance and a more secure connection to the trail. What’s even more impressive is how well they’ve held up. After a full year of use, they still look great. The soles aren’t worn down at all, and there are no signs of excessive wear or tear anywhere on the shoe. He genuinely enjoys wearing these shoes, and I can tell he’s not going back to traditional hiking boots anytime soon. ... show more

    • Xero’s Sizing Issue Strikes Again
Size: 9 Color: Black/White
Well made as usual, and super comfortable, they’re great gym shoes for both lifting and cardio. They have great traction, excellent breathability, and come in a nice selection of colors. BUT as is the case with Xero, sizing is very inconsistent to the point of ridiculousness. I wear a European 42 / US men’s 9 in almost all shoes, as well as this shoe in white. In black, I am returning the 9 (42) to order a men’s size 9.5 (43). This is why I always order Xero through Amazon. It makes the return easier. I gave it a 3 rather than a 5 only because ordering Xero is such a PITA because you never know if they’re going to fit. ... show more

    • Little difficult to size
Size: 11.5 Color: Black
The shoes are great! I came from the Merrell wrapt that I’m a size men’s 10.5 in to an 11.5 in these. I’m size 11 in Keens and New Balance 574 for reference. I have a slightly wide foot but not wide enough for EE or a wide designated shoe/boot. The Prio is a bit loose all around which is fine for me. I only give it 4/5 because it took a minute to get sizing correct and they were super squeaky on polished concrete floors. Overall very comfortable shoe with a nice design. ... show more
