Daylite Hiker Fusion Women's SIZE GUIDE

We recommend ordering a half-size larger than your usual size.

*If you normally buy a Euro or UK Size, check out the handy conversion chart below.
NOTE: The Daylite Hiker has a wider toe box than conventional women's shoes. If your feet are particularly wide, consider the Men's Daylite Hiker Fusion. Just make sure to adjust the size by 1.5 (for example, a men's 8 is the same length as a women's 9.5).

Product Description

“These boots are AMAZING! I find myself wearing them all the time when I need closed
toe shoes even when I’m not hiking.”  – Kate

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 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 8.8 ounces each for a Women’s 7, the Daylite Hiker Fusion remains the perfect hiking boot for everyday adventures.

A CHIC, UPDATED AESTHETIC.

Available in black and a new subtle purple color, the new Daylite Hiker is a minimalist hiking boot that is stylish enough to pair with leggings, jeans, or khakis 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.

Comfy and lightweight

But sturdy. I ordered these in a size 8 (usually a size 7.5/8), and had to exchange them for an 8.5. When I first put the 8.5 on, I thought they were too small AGAIN, but I walked around my house a bit and they fit perfectly. I've only gone on one hike so far, but my feet (and the rest of me) felt great during and after.

I love these shoes!

Extremely comfortable and water resistant. They would be even better if they were waterproof, but it isn’t really an issue.

Xero Shoes

It's great to hear that you find your shoes extremely comfortable and water-resistant! While they may not be fully waterproof, it's good to know that they are holding up well against moisture. It's wonderful that you're enjoying your shoes despite this minor concern. If you have any other feedback or questions, feel free to let me know!

Uncomfortable on the back of ankle

Bought these back in '22 and have only worn them twice.. the first time I wore them the achilles area was rubbed raw.. thought it was it thin socks. I finally wore them again with thick socks but same thing. It's too bad because the toe box is really comfy.

Xero Shoes

It's unfortunate to hear about your experience with the Achilles area rubbing raw in your Xero shoes. It sounds like the design might not be the best fit for your foot shape or gait pattern. Some individuals might experience discomfort in certain areas due to differences in anatomy or sensitivity. If you haven't already, you might consider reaching out to Xero Shoes customer happiness team to see if they have any recommendations or if there are alternative models better suited to your needs. They might be able to offer solutions or suggestions to improve the comfort of your shoes.

So far so great!

These hiking boots have been great so far. My toes have room with my toes socks and my heel stays in place while wearing my arch support inserts. They are light and comfortable all around.

Returned them

They were bigger than another Xero shoe I have that was the same size, so they didn't fit. I probably would have returned them even if they did fit though because they felt like plastic.
