Product Description

“Best looking pair of barefoot shoes yet. They are still great for working out, but I can keep them on after the gym and still look good.” – Adam K.

NEXUS KNIT – Athleisure Meets Barefoot-Inspired Comfort

When you take an athletic design and give it Xero Shoes DNA – lightweight, flexible, foot-shaped – and add a breathable, 3D-knit upper, you get the Nexus Knit.

Whether you’re in the gym, taking a walk, going for a run or just hanging out with friends, you are going to love the look and feel of this shoe.

NEXM-BLCK_Nexus-Knit_Black_Hawaii_3767

Stylish Comfort That’s Ready for Anything

The Nexus Knit may not be our lightest performance shoe, but it still comes in at only 9.2 oz. (M9). More importantly, it’s still built to tackle whatever you want to do in it and look great while you are.

And when it comes to comfort, the breathable 3D-knit upper with its booty construction envelops your foot, so you’ll enjoy a barely-there feeling.

We hope you like talking to strangers, because the Nexus Knit’s elegant, minimalist design will make them stop you on the street to ask, “Where do I get a pair of those?”

We Haven’t Sole-d Out 🙂

Don’t be fooled by what looks like a foam midsole on the Nexus Knit. What you’re seeing is actually a clever minimalist cup sole that wraps around the upper, creating a more familiar looking profile.

You’ll still enjoy the responsiveness and ground feel of the FeelTrue™ outsole that helps your brain move your body efficiently, effectively, and most importantly, enjoyably.

WE MAKE PERFORMANCE 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 Nexus Knit.

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!

To clean shoes with a soft-bristled brush and dry detergent:

  1. Remove loose dirt with a soft cloth.
  2. Mix a little water with the white dry detergent
  3. Use soft-bristled brush, dipped in water to gently scrub shoes.
  4. Gently wipe away excess detergent with a dry cloth.
  5. Repeat until satisfied.
  6. Air dry shoes completely.

Please note:

  • White shoes can get dirty! Please use dry detergent as needed.
  • We do not recommend putting the Nexus in the washing machine or dryer.

We do! We’ve sold Xero Shoes to people in more than 85 countries around the world.
We use the US Postal service to send our shipments. The cost to ship will depend on the weight of the package and the delivery speed you select; several options will be provided at checkout.

All domestic shipments come with tracking. Limited tracking is available for some first class international shipments depending on the country, and full tracking is available with all Priority Express and Express International shipments.

Though almost all of our international orders arrive without incident, we strongly advise you to select Priority Express International or Express International if you live in a country with a less reliable postal service, including (but not limited to) India, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, and Indonesia. We cannot guarantee delivery of packages shipped using First Class International.

International delivery can take anywhere from 3 days to 8 weeks depending on how long your order spends in customs at the border.

Please note that some countries do require the payment of import duties for international shipments above a certain value. We advise you to know the import regulations of your country and understand that you will be responsible for payment of any duties and fees imposed by your government at the border.

All packages will be marked as merchandise; as a commercial shipper, we are not able to mark a package as a gift (if you’re giving Xero Shoes as a gift, that’s not the same as us sending a gift).
Also, check our Stores page. There may be a Xero Shoes dealer closer to you.

After you purchase a gift certificate, you’ll be able to enter an email address for the recipient.

You could email it to yourself and forward it at a later time if you like.

You can also take the Gift Certificate code and send it to the recipient.

Please go to Xero Shoes Return Policy page to learn about our 45-day return policy.

A little different than my other Xeros

It isn't obvious, but these shoes don't have a tongue. They're one solid piece. That's been good, in that it keeps me from over-tightening my laces, but it is definitely something that took me awhile to get used to. Also, the laces are weird? Whatever material theyre made from doesn't like to stay tied. The material is very soft, and super flexible. It really does feel more like wearing a sock than a shoe. That said, I have been wearing these to work with no issues. Indoor, outdoor, on my feet 10 hours straight, and I am comfortable the whole time. I'm only not wearing these for yardwork because I want to keep them nice as long as possible. (My old Xeros are my yardwork shoes now, since I've finally worn holes in them, lol) I always recommend Xero shoes, and I am enjoying this style quite a bit!

Xero Nexus Knit vs Hoka Bondi

When I walk in my Hokas I feel like I’m walking on a cloud bu try feet ache afterwards. But if I walk in my Xeros, I feel every surface sensation but afterwards my feet don’t ache. I can’t explain it, I just going with it. Point Xero.

Women in men’s shoes

I measured my feet and ordered size 9 women’s shoes. I got two pair because I was so excited! I took them on vacation with me and wore them everywhere, and then my feet and ankles started to swell. My primary doctor sent me to a foot specialist because she couldn’t figure out what was going on. Her best guess was, I hit my toes on a rock that caused my feet to have a small swelling. Then I was on my feet a lot because of the tours we were taking on vacation, and my.Xero shoes were too narrow. Well, I couldn’t return the shoes, but I did reach out to Xero To try to get more shoes that actually fit better. The suggestion was that I go with 8 1/2 men’s shoes because Xero She don’t come in an extra wide! Why not? Now I am wearing some Xero Shoes that don’t come in the colors that I want as a female, but they’re OK it’sXero Has some cute Colors for women that I can’t get now. This seems like a ridiculous problem to have at a company that prides itself on, Among other things, wide toe boxes.

Exactly what I was looking for!

The shoes look and feel great! I have been wearing them daily for work and they’re light, airy, and have a clean look… extremely pleased so far!
