Scrambler Mid - Ultra-Light Hiking Boot for Men from Xero Shoes

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 11.0 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 Fiber Lite® 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 Fiber Lite® 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!

Do you ship internationally?

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.

Soggy feet

Pretty nice, comfortable, not digging the spring vibes as they are not waterproof. Will be nice on dry trails.

The best shoes ever!

These are bar none the best shoes I have ever bought. They help develop my foot neurologically. I'm an athlete and dancer and this is all I wear now for the health of my feet and body. They are also extremely well built to last.

Tough love

Tough and tender. Rugged for an ultralight and still comfortable even after a long walk and scramble across the mountain stalking yamadori. Nimble and sure-footed in the tsuboniwa, too. Makes me hope Xero will do their own take on the classic Japanese gardener's boot.

Rugged but barefoot

I wish these were as wide as the Prios! I bought these for work, I’m not entirely sure if it’s 100% zero drop because my arch on my left foot flares up and in the Prios there’s none of that, over all I do like the thickness of it because it’s protects my foot, I switched the inserts out with basic foam inserts and my arch doesn’t flare up

half size bigger

After a few years Xero Shoes I think my feet are a half size bigger. I have to take out the innersole. I'm very happy to have them and will use them on mountain trials in Spain next month. The charge for sending plus the taxes are about half the price of the shoes. So you should really want the Xero Shoes. I do.

Xero Scrambler Mid Men's

So far they've been excellent - flexible, wide enough for my feet, light and grippy. Only issue I had was the soles that came with the boots (14s) were slightly oversize and would slide up, so I just took them out

Scrambler Mid -a fantastic shoe from Xero

I have been buying and wearing Xero shoes for sometime and have a least 5 different kinds - all of which I like very much. The new Scrambler Mid though has become my favorite- like all the other Xeros I have it is very comfortable and fits very well. I walk in the hills on trails in the State Forest next to my house with my dog Apollo at least twice a day when I can and these shoes (as the other Xero’s do as well) are great through out the year. I have a foot condition where I need a lot of toe room and these fit the bill. I am so addicted to these shoes. Thanks to the Xero gang for making my feet happy!
