“I’ve thrown out every other pair of flip flops I have. These are the ultimate all in one water shoe, or even if you just want to get them for running. They’re super grippy and the toe knot is soft. I can’t wait to take them out paddleboarding.” – Ben B.

Take the Aqua Cloud on your next wet or dry adventure, and you’ll be on cloud nine. This update to our iconic Cloud sandal is perfect for water sports with its new more durable, grippier, rubber sole, we also extended the BareFoamâ„¢ footbed through the heel for additional comfort.

WHAT ADVENTURES WILL THE AQUA CLOUD TAKE YOU ON?

LIGHTWEIGHT PROTECTION THAT FEELS JUST RIGHT.

The Aqua Cloud features our flexible, durable FeelTrue® sole with improved traction and a grippier rubber for extra grip during your favorite water sports. The embedded, textured 3mm BareFoam™ layer now spans the entire footbed for added comfort, and the shaped heel cup helps keep out debris.

When the Aqua Cloud weighs just 5.2 ounces each for a men’s 9, it’s no wonder it floats, so you won’t have to worry about losing these at the bottom of the lake, pool, or ocean.

EASY LACING. EASY COMFORT.

Our patented easy lacing system eliminates the pressure points traditional thong sandals create while giving you the security you’d expect from all Xero Shoes.

Now you can get wet and wild while enjoying the benefits of natural comfort!

WE MAKE SANDALS 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 Aqua Cloud.
 
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 safely Feel the World® in total comfort.

Caring for your Aqua Clouds

Because of the TrailFoam™ in the Aqua Cloud, these need a bit of extra attention. Do not leave the sandals in hot cars or exposed to intense or direct sunlight. This could cause the TrailFoam™ to deform and is not covered by our warranty.

To clean your Aqua Cloud sandals, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry (away from direct sunlight).

FAQs


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.

Love the feel, could be better

Overall a really good barefoot feel, with great grip on underwater rocks during hiking. One flaw is that the front and sides of the sandal will flap back under any water current, which makes it a little hard to walk forward sometimes. It feels like something is catching and then increasing resistance on every step. Maybe add another attachment to the foot so that doesn’t happen?

Better than expected

I found my first pair of Xero shoes at a thrift store and fell in love. The Aqua Clouds fit better and stay on much better than expected. I haven't had to adjust the heal strap since the first day I used them, even in high levels of movement and activity.

Excellent as I've come to expect

I bought a Xero Huarches kit years, and loved them. I haven't worn them out yet. And I finally bought a pair of the Aqua Clouds, thinking the extra cushion would be nice. It IS nice! Still feel the ground, with just a little cushion. Keep up the good work!

Aqua Cloud Review from 50 year old ultra marathoner

I am a 50 year old ultra marathoner with 35 years worth of injuries. I have spent hundreds of dollars on road and trail running shoes looking for the ultimate experience with the least amount of injuries. I have finally found it. I wake up every morning without pain or stiffness of any kind. I have ran a 15 miler, 10 miler, and half marathon in these sandals over three days without an issue. I also wear them all day long at the indoor rock climbing gym that I manage. I can’t wait to get a second pair to rotate with these.

First Barefoot Shoe

I’ve been looking into barefoot shoes for a while and this was my first pair. I love them. They’re lightweight and super comfortable. So far I’ve primarily worn them around the house and to the gym. They have taken some getting used to, and I’m still fine tuning the fit but they’re great.
