Product Description

“The do-it-all mountain shoe I’ve always wished for. It’s tough, surprisingly lightweight, and the grip is insane!” – Matt G.

THE WORLD’S LIGHTEST TECHNICAL HIKING BOOT

Ever have that feeling at the end of a hike where you can’t wait to kick off your heavy, stiff boots?

You’ll never feel that again when you wear the Scrambler Mid, perhaps the lightest and most comfortable technical hiking boot ever made!

Scramble up trails like a mountain goat in this shoe! At just 11.3 oz. per shoe (M9), a pair of the Scrambler Mid weighs less than just one single boot from most other companies.

LIKE WEARING MOUNTAIN BIKE TIRES ON YOUR FEET

Scrambler Mid is a collaboration with Michelin, the car and bike tire company.

If you could see inside the thin Michelin fiberlite sole, you’d find an embedded textile layer, giving the sole unparalleled strength, flexibility and lightness.

Plus, with mud-shedding lugs inspired by Michelin’s high-performance mountain bike tires, you feel the confidence that comes with incredible grip.

Although the Scrambler Mid uses Michelin soles, it’s still covered under our 5,000 mile sole warranty.

EXTRA PROTECTION WITH AN “ILLUSION”

You may look at the Scrambler Mid and think it has a thick sole and that Xero Shoes has strayed from our mission.

Far from it.

Above the fiberlite is a thin layer of our TrailFoam™, which gives you extra comfort and protection when you’re on a tough trail.

Normally we hide this layer in our hiking products’ soles. But the Scrambler Mid wraps both sole layers up around the upper, giving an illusion of thickness. This eye-catching look inspires conversations with other hikers that start with, “Where do I get those?”

TOUGH FROM TOE TO HEEL

Enjoy the protection you get with the Scrambler Mid’s abrasion-resistant, vegan-friendly, breathable upper, and welded sidewalls and two-layer toe cap.

And when the elements give you an extra challenge, attach your favorite gaiter to the included hook and tackle the next peak.

A “RUNNING BOOT?”

With this incredible combination of lightness, flexibility, grip, protection, and comfort, the Scrambler Mid can outperform many trail running shoes.

Whether you put that idea to the test, or take it for a day trip, or a month-long thru-hike, the Scrambler Mid is your perfect companion to Live Life Feet First.

WE MAKE HIKING 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 Scrambler Mid. 

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!

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 Xero Shoes

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

Very comfortable

I didn’t think I would like them due to the padded ankle pic. But they look great and are comfortable. The padded ankle is not bad at all. I can wear them everywhere not wet. True to size in my case. I’m going to try the water proof pair next.

Magic boots

Most comfortable boot I've ever worn. I wear them to work and am already on my 2nd pair...that's how good they feel on.

Very Good, Not Perfect

Recently took these on a 5 day, 50 mile outing through the Flat Tops Wilderness, which included 8 miles of bushwhacking and an unexpected 2-hour sleet storm. Pros: Comfortable, very light, good ankle stability, mesh breathes extremely well, good protection from rocks and sharp things underfoot, grippy when dry. Cons: Near-zero water resistance (splashing in even a shallow puddle will get your socks wet), doesn't dry as fast as you would expect, open mesh picks up burrs and grass seeds (which are easily embedded but then very difficult to remove!), not super grippy in the mud. Overall these served well. I found them excellent on trail, in open forest, and on dry rock. They will likely be my go-to for on-trail hiking for a while. However, I will probably opt for something different for off-trail through open meadows or when mud is expected.

Great shoe.

I’ve been hiking for a week now with the shoes and I’m very happy with their performance. The only issue that I have, that I don’t have with my other four Xero shoes is that the insert slides up behind my heel about 3 inches after each walk. The shoes fit snugly so I not sure what causes that. Really like the quality of the boot and the feel that it gives me when walking/hiking.

Great boot, frustrating insoles.

Overall the boots have been fantastic. First pair of scrambler mids, first impressions were great. After just a couple miles the sole of just one boot started to shift and slide rearward up the Achilles tendon area making the boot super uncomfortable with the soles in. I was however able to remedy this by using some hem tape between the bottom of the boot and the insole. After that all things have been seeming to be locked in place.

Amazing!

These were immediately comfortable and so light for hiking boots! I first wore them on a 20km hike and my feet felt great all day. They could move freely but were supportive enough for all terrain. Great purchase!

Boots are the bomb!

Ground feel on the trails is matched only by ankle support. Had a fellow hiker stop me on the trail and ask where I got these boots.
