Product Description

Limited quantities are available before that date.

“I’m absolutely in love with them and already use them for EVERYTHING. Walking, hiking, even everyday shores and tasks!”  – Megan H.

The Z-Trek is the ultimate sports sandal.

From the trail to the city, on water and on land, set your feet free with Z-Trek – the lightweight, versatile sport sandal with a barefoot feel.

“Just-Right” Protection:

6mm FeelTrue® outsole protects you from unpleasant surfaces and gives you great ground feel.
 
Lightweight:

A women’s size 7 sandal averages just over 5 ounces – you’ll barely notice you have them on.

Secure-feeling:
Adjustable Z-Pattern straps give you the right tension around your foot and heel, but leave your toes free to move.
Plus, the Z-Trek is made from 100% vegan-friendly materials.
Note: If you’re looking for more protection or even lighter weight in a Natural Movement sport sandal, check out our Z-Trail sandal.
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.

You sure can. Just slide the webbing through the slots on the outside of the sole to get the tension you like.

Note: A lot of our customers report that they like the toe strap looser than they thought they would. Experiment and see what you like best.

Use the templates that are linked on this page (next to where you select the size, and in the product description).

NOTE: Please measure your foot and/or use the templates. Sandal size is very often different than shoe size.

Pretty much anything you want. Take a walk on the beach, a hike in the woods, hang out with friend, stroll around the campsite, approach a climb, paddle a canoe, run a marathon…

I’m not sure that Z-Trek, or any sandal for that matter, is right for lateral motion sports, like tennis or basketball.

So, use your common sense and HAVE FUN!

There are 54 different foot shapes. And no product will fit everyone perfectly.

If you’re not sure you have the right size, drop us an email with some photos (top, side, back) and we’ll give you our opinion.

If you have the right size but the Z-Trek shape doesn’t quite match your foot… CUT IT! That’s right, you can trim the Z-Trek with a good pair of kitchen scissors. To finish the edge cleanly, try some sandpaper. Don’t cut off too much, too soon, though. Take off just a bit, and then see how you did. Remember, you can’t UN-cut.

If you’re a man with a very narrow foot, you may be better in the “women’s” style. Conversely, women with very wide feet, or over a size 10, should check the sizing for he “men’s” products.

The women’s Z-Trek is a bit narrower, and the webbing is 4mm thinner.

So if you have a narrow foot, whether you’re a man or woman, you may want to check the “women’s” sizing templates and see how those work for you. Similarly, if you have a wider foot, regardless of your gender, check out the “men’s” templates.

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.

Sized down and the fit is perfect

These sandals are great. They fit well and are very comfortable. My only qualm is that the velcro on the back strap will likely wear out faster than the rest of the shoe.

Got sent wrong size

I couldn't try them on. They shipped me the wrong size and haven't gotten a reply back from them. I ordered a size 8 and got a size 5

Tried and true

I wanted to give an honest review and wear them for a while. I love these shoes, I take my twins to the zoo twice a week and even wore them once to a 30,000 step day at Epcot. Other than my feet getting hot from the blazing Florida July temps and the thin soles, I have yet to have sore feet after wearing these. I have also noticed improvements in low back pain and leg aches now that my gate is more like God intended. I wear them so often I have a zig zag tan line on my feet. I ordered some kids shoes for my sons and honestly plan to replace my entire shoe collection with Xero shoes.

Quarter sized blisters.

After a 20 minute walk I had huge blisters on both heels. Worst “shoe” experience I’ve had in forever.

Not a Sandal Girl

I'm not a "sandal girl" - and I'm really not a fan of flip flops, but I wanted something light to wear during the summer months. Since I am not fond of anything between my toes, this show seemed like a good choice. What I like: They are easy to put on and simple to adjust. The straps are comfortable. There is lots of room for my foot including my toes. The shoe feels light on my feet but the soles give enough protection from hot and rocky surfaces. My feet can breathe. What I like less: I don't want to say what I don't like, but as with other reviewers, I do notice the sides on the back of the sandals. I don't step on them, but because of the strap placement, I do tend to bump into the sides occasionally reminding me I actually have shoes on. I've tried adjusting the straps to try to keep my foot more centered in the shoe, but it didn't seem to help. Also, some people noted that the inside surface of the sandal was a bit rough. I would agree with that, but the only time it bothers me is if I stand in one place for too long. It's not rough enough that it bothers me while walking or sitting.

Caring for your Z-Trek Sandals

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