Xero ShoesWomen's Prio Neo Barefoot Training Shoe

I've been looking at barefoot shoes for over a year, trying to decide if I want to try one or not. I finally decided to order this shoe. It is a middle of the road as far as cost is considered. Many that I looked at did not come in 1/2 sizes, which did not work for me. I wear an 8 1/2 most of the time, and I ordered the 8 1/2 and it fit perfectly. I've worn these shoes for a week now, and I love them. I do not have a wide foot and was worried that they would be too big. They are not. If you are needing great arch support, these are probably not for you. But they are so dang comfortable. I wear them at the gym for training and are perfect. After a long work out, my feet feel good. They keep my feet cool. I wouldn't want to wear them for hiking, but treadmill work is no problem. If you are considering a barefoot shoe, try these! I'm getting ready to order another color. I love these shoes.

If you’re looking to rabbit hole down the barefoot shoe thing, then these are a great start! They’re reasonably affordable compared to many brands so you can try them out without feeling too guilty on the money spent. Once I started wearing these regularly and I went back to others I couldn’t believe how much my feet really “feel” and it does make a difference! I plan to try more of their shoes and even branch out into some other brands. I will say they didn’t hold up quite as long as some of my other shoes. There’s just the slightest peeling of shoe from sole. But not enough to make me stop wearing them and I still give it a good rating despite this. There’s no arch support but that’s obviously intentional and I didn’t have any issues. These are more comfortable than my Birkenstocks because they MOVE!! O wakes all day the zoo and had no trouble! And I used to have terrible arch pain. If you haven’t rabbit holed down the barefoot movement go to Anya’s Reviews and read all about it. It just makes sense when you look at X-rays of conventional shoes vs barefoot! Give em a try!

Definitely barefoot feel, so make sure that's what you want. I love it. Feels like a glove. Other wide toe box shoes I've bought are too wide on the rest of my foot. These have a kind of ribbon that runs through the back outside of the shoe and connects to the top of the shoe where the laces are. That way if you do have a thinner ankle and still want the wide toe, you can pull that tighter, which makes the shoe closer to a custom fit. I've mostly given up on using the other shoes and just wearing these. Note: I do not use these shoes when standing in the kitchen for several hours. I use them for virtually everything else.

Cute, comfortable for a barefoot shoe, true to size

Great shoes! So comfortable!! I would purchase again!

I had back surgery and was not allowed to bend, lift or twist. Imagine trying to put shoes on when you can’t bend, lift or twist. These shoes were perfect. They look good, they slip on easily. They are comfortable and they give me all the support I need. Most important, you don’t have to bend, lift or twist to put them on.

My wife has used these shoes for a 24 day trip to Japan (Nov 2024) and now we are in the middle of a 4 week trip to Italy and the Mediterranean. Between the two vacations we are averaging close to 20,000 steps a date and the shoes are still going strong! When her current pair wears out (which I'm sure they will) she will most definitely purchase these same shoes again!

Could not explain how amazing these shoes are
