Product Description

WOW! What can I say about this upgrade?
The new style is just awesome.”
 
– Craig C.

With its new lightweight, abrasion-resistant welded upper and grippier lugged sole, the Daylite Hiker Fusion is perfect for those hikes when a technical boot is more than you need.

WHAT’S NEW ABOUT THE DAYLITE HIKER FUSION?

PROTECTION THAT FEELS JUST RIGHT.

The Daylite Hiker Fusion features a new 10mm FeelTrue® sole that includes a 3.5mm lugged dual chevron tread that has been re-designed to provide even more grip and control without sacrificing the ground feel and feedback you’d expect from Xero Shoes.

IMPROVED COMFORT AND DURABILITY.

We’ve tucked our Huarache-inspired tension straps under a sleek new welded upper so you can achieve a snug fit with even more splash and abrasion-resistance. At just 11.1 ounces each for a Men’s 9, the Daylite Hiker Fusion remains the perfect hiking boot for everyday adventures.

A FRESH, UPDATED LOOK.

Available in black and a subtle, earthy brown, the new Daylite Hiker is a minimalist hiking boot that is stylish enough to pair with just about any casual or work attire, so you can wear it both on and off the trail.

WE MAKE 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 Daylite Hiker Fusion.
 
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.

It’s not waterproof because the tongue is independent of the rest of the upper, though the ballistic mesh material in the upper definitely makes this boot a little more rain-friendly than most other footwear. If you really want to keep the water at bay, check out our Xcursion — Xero’s first fully waterproof boot.

We use “men’s” and “women’s” as a matter of convention. We know there are some men who will fit better in the “women’s” shoe, and vice versa.

The “men’s” style is a bit wider across the toes and in the heel. The women’s, conversely, has a narrower heel and slightly less-wide toe box.

If you’re a man with a very thin foot, or a women with a wide foot, you may want to try the “other” style.

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 Daylite Hikers Fusions

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

Great shoe, but quality control issues

This is my favorite everyday shoe I have ever owned. Comfortable for hikes and walking around town, and good looking enough for just about any social situation. I see some review mentioning the stiffness out of the box, especially compared to the old version. DON'T WORRY - just wear them a while. I promise that they will break in after a few weeks and become remarkably supple, while still remaining a fairly supportive "barefoot" shoe. I give three stars because I am now on my third pair, after two warranty replacements. Within the first year on each of my first two pairs, the soles started separating in the toe area. Xero has been great about getting the replacement pairs out quickly, with no hassle. They send a prepaid label to send your old ones back, and they even say that they'll donate them if there is enough life left in them. BUT, despite how comfy the shoes are (and how great the customer service is) I unfortunately don't have a high level of confidence that this 3rd pair will make it through the year without the soles falling off again. We shall see. If there is a way to update the review later, I will.

2nd pair is very stuff

My 1st pair I use for hiking and didn’t use much and they’re my favorite shoes. The second pair I order are stiff and I have worn them far more with work and they are still stiff. I’m disappointed greatly, I don’t know if Xero changed manufacturing for these shoes or what it is, but I feel the quality for this one has gone down.

Protective

Good shoe. I did not anticipate this much padding. Added protection equals bigger shoe. The feet get hot in these. I will primarily use these in the winter. Good product.

Excellent

Love them! They work great for hiking, but also for work on the homestead, and as casual wear.

Xero hiker, slip on and running shoes

Since I’ve been going to structural integration therapy I have not been able to wear normal ( as I found out GARBAGE SHOES ) with support from Good Feet. Learned a big lesson about how our feet and bodies should really work. Xero are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. My ankles, legs and back never hurt at the end of the day. I would be lucky if I could get 2 hrs in regular shoes before the pain hits. Thanks for the great products you guys make. I will be ordering more in the near future.
