Product Description

WOW! What can I say about this upgrade?
The new style is just awesome.”
 
– Craig C.

With its new lightweight, abrasion-resistant welded upper and grippier lugged sole, the Daylite Hiker Fusion is perfect for those hikes when a technical boot is more than you need.

WHAT’S NEW ABOUT THE DAYLITE HIKER FUSION?

PROTECTION THAT FEELS JUST RIGHT.

The Daylite Hiker Fusion features a new 10mm FeelTrue® sole that includes a 3.5mm lugged dual chevron tread that has been re-designed to provide even more grip and control without sacrificing the ground feel and feedback you’d expect from Xero Shoes.

IMPROVED COMFORT AND DURABILITY.

We’ve tucked our Huarache-inspired tension straps under a sleek new welded upper so you can achieve a snug fit with even more splash and abrasion-resistance. At just 11.1 ounces each for a Men’s 9, the Daylite Hiker Fusion remains the perfect hiking boot for everyday adventures.

A FRESH, UPDATED LOOK.

Available in black and a subtle, earthy brown, the new Daylite Hiker is a minimalist hiking boot that is stylish enough to pair with just about any casual or work attire, so you can wear it both on and off the trail.

WE MAKE BOOTS 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 Daylite Hiker Fusion.
 
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 safely Feel the World® in total comfort.

It’s not waterproof because the tongue is independent of the rest of the upper, though the ballistic mesh material in the upper definitely makes this boot a little more rain-friendly than most other footwear. If you really want to keep the water at bay, check out our Xcursion — Xero’s first fully waterproof boot.

We use “men’s” and “women’s” as a matter of convention. We know there are some men who will fit better in the “women’s” shoe, and vice versa.

The “men’s” style is a bit wider across the toes and in the heel. The women’s, conversely, has a narrower heel and slightly less-wide toe box.

If you’re a man with a very thin foot, or a women with a wide foot, you may want to try the “other” style.

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.

Caring for your Daylite Hikers Fusions

To clean your Daylite Hikers Fusions, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry.
We do not recommend putting the Daylite Hiker Fusion in the washing machine or dryer.

My Newest Favorite Shoe!

When I received these shoes I put them on to see how they fit and if they were comfortable. The next thing I know it is twelve hours later and I am taking them off to go to bed! The shoes are super comfortable and feel great. During the course of the day I did a short walk with my wife down a gravel road and the shoes felt rooted and effortless to walk in at the same time. This is my second pair of Xero shoes and also my favorite. My wife even decided to get a pair and loves them as well. Keep up the good work!

Love the shoe, but failed out of the box

I have been buying and wearing Xero shoes for years now and never had an issue. My issue is not necessarily with the shoe but with how long it’s taking to even get a response from my warranty claim. So I’m stuck with a pair of shoes I can’t wear with no light in sight of when I’ll be getting my replacement set.

Rucking

I generally ruck 5-6 miles. With my new Xero Hikers I tried a wear-in ruck of 2 miles but developed a blister on the ball of my foot. I’m planning on wearing them around the house for a couple weeks and will try a 1 mile ruck in 2 weeks and see how it goes.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Taking the time to wear them around the house before attempting longer walks or rucks is a great strategy to allow your feet to adjust gradually. We hope that with some additional wear and time to break in, your Xero Shoes Hikers will become more comfortable for your activities. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help ensure you have the best experience possible with your Xero Shoes.

Love them but the insole is slipping

So comfortable and they look great. Only issue is the left insole keeps sliding back. Not sure how to fix besides super glue?

Second pair

Purchased these after getting the Prio shoes a few months ago. These are better for hikes and disc golf as they offer more protection from puddles and wet grass. I really like both these shoes. Really the only shoes I've been wearing for the past few months. I really like them.
