Product Description

The most comfortable athletic shoe I’ve ever worn.Stacy M.

The Prio is the most comfortable shoe for everything you do.

Whether you’re out on a run, trying out a new trail, hitting the gym, or toeing a slackline, you’ll love the Prio’s combination of freedom and protection.

“Just-Right” Protection:

The Prio uses the same 5.5mm FeelTrue® rubber as our Z-Trek sandal, so you get great protection while still getting the ground feedback that your feet love. The optional 2mm insole lets you have more or less of a “barefoot feel” depending on your mood.
 
Lightweight:

A women’s 7 is only 7.3 ounces each – you’ll barely notice you have them on.

Secure-feeling:
Our Huarache sandal-inspired reflective heel and instep straps hold your foot securely – with or without socks – while keeping your toes free to move.
 
Plus, the Prio is made from 100% vegan-friendly materials.
Imagine you’ve just come home after a long day at work or on the trail. If you can’t wait to take your shoes off the moment you walk in the front door, you’ve been wearing the wrong shoes.
 
Life-Changing comfort and superior performance come from using your feet naturally.

That’s what Xero Shoes let you do.
 
Natural Fit. Natural Motion. Natural Feel.

Plus Xero Shoes are backed with a 5,000-mile sole warranty.

It’s not. But the breathable mesh upper should help it dry quickly if you get them wet.

Practically anything. The Prio is our first “performance” shoe.

It’s great road running, light trail running, walking, hiking, working out, Crossfit, biking, slacklining… it’s obviously up to you. Once you get them on, I’m sure you’ll do things we never thought of (and we want to see pictures of that!).

Put on your Prio and Live Life Feet First!

I’ll admit, this is one of my favorite things about the Prio.

The huarache-sandal inspired heel strap can be used to hold your heel and ankle in place. Pull the straps through the ankle holes in the sole, and then lock them in place with the laces.

The instep straps can be used to secure your instep, which can free up your toes and forefoot to relax and function better. Use the laces to tighten or loosen them to your liking.

The Prio is our best-selling “do almost anything” shoe — running, hiking, working out, you name it.
With a durable upper, it provides a bit more protection.

The Speed Force is our lightest, “most barefoot” shoe.
More feedback as you step and a mesh upper that holds like a glove, you get a “barely there” experience.

The HFS is lighter than the Prio, more rugged than the Speed Force.
The HFS’s sole has a tire tread-inspired sole that’s made to handle roads and have extra traction.
The huarache-inspired midfoot and instep straps are “hiding” behind a protective welded material.
And the moisture wicking lining for extra comfort and breathability.

Shoe sizing, especially online, is not a perfect process. That’s why we have a free exchange policy.

For EU/UK sizing, there’s a conversion chart at the bottom of the Prio product description.

The Prio fit true to size. We recommend going with your usual athletic shoe size.

Also, the Prio is wider than conventional running shoes.

Sizing for a shoe is different than a sandal, so if you own one of our sandals, that doesn’t mean you’ll pick the same size in the Prio, so use the measuring info if you can.

Keep in mind, though, that because the foot is three-dimensional, any two-dimensional measuring tool, such as a ruler or Brannock device®, can only approximate your true shoe size. Manufacturers model their shoes on different foot shapes, which is why you might be an 8 in one brand and a 9 in another. And then, there’s personal preference: three people with identical feet might think the same shoe fits differently.

If your foot is wide and larger than a women’s 7.5, you may want to check out the “men’s” Prio. The conversion between men’s and women’s is 1.5, so a women’s 8 is the same as a men’s 6.5.

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 Prios

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

Great comfort

Find them a little tight on the toes but fine with no socks. Fantastic comfort, already bought a pair of sandals, can't wait to get them 🙂

Prio for women

I LOVE these shoes! I bought a black pair last fall but my daughter claimed them for herself, so I had to buy another pair! So happy with the service and my very comfortable shoes!

Shoes for special needs

This is the first pair of shoes for my daughter who has Rett Syndrome and difficulties with mobility and balance. She can feel the ground is much more confident.

My feet feel like hands!

My feet feel so much in these shoes! I have depth perception issues and walking down stairs has always been a problem, but with xero shoes it's much easier because I can feel where my feet are. I also have always had a hard time finding wide enough shoes and the only previous pair I've had weigh one pound per shoe! So needless to say, when I first put them on I felt like I was stomping! I absolutely love xero shoes! When I first put them on I literally said out loud, "my feet are free at last!" Thank you guys so much for such a great product!

The best!

These are the best barefoot shoe that I have found. I barely notice that they are on my foot during my run. I also love that they are a full shoe so that I can wear them for my work fitness test. I usually wear a 7.5 in running shoes which allows extra room for my foot expanding or swelling. In the prio, I needed a size 8 to have the same space. So, be aware of that when purchasing!
