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 8.9 oz. per shoe (W7), 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!

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.

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).

Didn’t order right size.

The size I ordered was a full size too large so I returned it. One foot is 8.5; the other is 9. I ordered 9.5 because I thought it might run small. I actually enjoy my Ashland boots the most and will buy the Atari boot when it’s back in stock. The Atari would be gorgeous and fashion forward in a deep grayed green. Thanks.

Love these boots!

I love these. I tried on the Daylite Hiker Fusion and the Xcursion Fusion and I didn't like the fit of either so I returned both totally disappointed because I love my Xero 360s and was sure I'd love Xero boots. But then a week later Xero released the Scrambler and they are wonderful. I love the fit and flexibility. They hardly weigh anything so they are comfortable for wearing all day. The sizing is perfect. I use them for everyday wear and plan to use them for hiking if it ever gets nice in NE MT. If you aren't in love with the other Xero boots you gotta try these!

Overall excellent barefoot hiker

So much to love about these hiking boots: the zero drop; the flexible, grippy Michelin sole, the fit at the ankle and the lace up mechanism; roomy toe box; and the colourway, of course, which is what sold me on these boots over anything from a different brand. Extremely well priced, as well, given competitor rates. The one area I would seek improvement on is the width of the sole. The widest part of my feet (at the metatarsal) extends slightly beyond the edges of the boot soles on both sides. The boot tops, being a knit fabric, can accommodate this and the boots are still comfortable to wear. I invite Xero to make their footprint even a little wider still 🙂

Absolutely Exactly As Gorgeous as They Look in the Picture

I have resisted purchasing hiking boots as I don't need them a lot nor do I like the idea of my foot and ankles being all bound up in heavy and difficult-to-break-in traditional boots. So, when I saw these, and knowing how much I like the lightness of the pair I had purchased late last year for racewalking, I thought I'd give them a try EVEN with Canadian money horrible in comparison to U.S. $ and EVEN with duty required since these are Made in China. The government officials missed my first pair, but nabbed me on these unfortunately. When they arrived, my expectations were REALLY HIGH since they cost me so much. And, guess what--I love them! They are light, tight but not binding around the ankles (make them a safer shoe on uneven paths), and fit exactly as promised (I ordered my regular size as advised). I also am super impressed with the sole with is thicker and more comfortable even for urban walking than the other pair I purchased with a lighter sole. So, thank you, Xero. People are going to WANT a pair of these once they spot them on my feet because they are so colourful and cute--a relief after our long, hard, and dark winter.

Wow BEST hiking Shoes EVER

Wore these first time on a long backpack trip fresh out of the box ~ no break in period needed. GREAT traction - very comfortable. Didn’t feel the need to kick off my shoes at the end of a long hike day. :)) Worth every penny!

Happy Feet!

I absolutely love my xero shoes. I have been replacing all of my traditional type shoes. Once you find this kind of comfort, there is no going back. No more foot pain! No more back aches!

Great Boots!

Haven’t hiked in them yet, but wearing them around the house it’s clear they fit so well they won’t even need a ‘break-in’ period. Just gotta carve out some time and get out there! Nice light weight and cute!

Most. Comfy. Hiking boots. Ever.

I put the boots on and immediately thought: "These might be the most comfortable hiking boots I've put on my feet. My toes can breathe. Wow." I wore them on a short hike this weekend and not only are the boots comfy, with just enough padding that the sharp rocks didn't hurt, but also the soles are really grippy. They gave me a lot of stability while being the most ridiculously light (I don't say that lightly) hikers I've worn. Thank you, Xero!

Perfect if a little wider

I haven't worn them on the trail yet, but my first impression is they are well made and comfortable. I love the colors. I really like zero rise, foot-shaped shoes but prefer a little more cushioning that Xero shoes provide. My only issue is they are a bit too narrow for my wide foot.

Awesome Boots!

Zero drop is the answer to my search for perfect footwear. As a lifelong hiker I want traction, for daily walking I want comfort, and from yoga practice I know barefoot is best for balance and strength. Here it is is one super light hiking shoe!!! The Scrambler Mid boots are light as air and can absolutely go anywhere!
