Product Description

“The Kelso is really comfortable. The leather and suede is really high quality, they don’t need any breaking in. They look sharp!” – Chris W.

The Kelso is a fresh take on the classic court-style shoe you’ve always loved. Enjoy it’s sleek full-grain leather upper and stitched soft suede accent panels, along with patterned pinhole vents, and a moisture-wicking mesh lining to keep you cool.

WHY IS THE KELSO YOUR NEW FAVORITE COURT-STYLE SHOE?

LIGHTWEIGHT PROTECTION THAT FEELS JUST RIGHT.

The Kelso features a wider, foot-shaped toe box to let your toes spread and relax. It has a flexible 6.0mm FeelTrue^® sole with a herringbone tread pattern to provide ground-gripping performance on the court without sacrificing the all-day comfort you’d expect from Xero Shoes.

While you’re taking a stroll through town or tearing up the court, the lightweight (10.4 ounces each for a Men’s 9) Kelso will speak for itself.

GOES ANYWHERE. GOES WITH EVERYTHING.

The all-new Kelso is a casual minimalist shoe that is grippy enough for tennis matches, yet more than stylish enough to pair with jeans, khakis, shorts, or any casual attire. Enjoy your midday tennis break and shift straight back to work all in the Kelso.

WE MAKE ACTIVE SHOES 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 Kelso.

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.

Do you ship internationally?

Category: Policies

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.

Best sneakers i have ever had.

I was having some issues with bunion pain and ever since i got these shoes i haven’t had any bunion pain for months now. Another thing i noticed was that my toes now are separated and my bunions are disappearing, my back pain is gone and i can be walking or standing for hours and my feet do not hurt at all. Although it took me some time to get used to zero drop but once all those muscles in my feet got stronger the comfort just got better. Another aspect i love of this shoes is that there are no hot spots anywhere to the point that my calluses are gone. I have done everything with these shoes work, working out and hiking with no issues. I’m going to donate all my shoes.

Stylish, durable, comfort

I have had the Kelso's for a few months now and have to say that I really like the looks (although I thought the strap was a darker blue not a more teal color...but still like it). I've used the shoes in a standing job environment through a hardcore Disneyland day with over 10 miles of travel. They have left my feet feeling much better than anything else on the trip and did so all while feeling more like slippers than heavy regular shoes.

Great casual shoe

I've been a Xero Shoes customer for over a decade now, from the DIY kit onward, and the Kelso is tied with the HFS for my favorite. The Kelso is both comfortable and stylish, a combination that most minimalist shoes fail to achieve. They do dirty up quickly like some reviews have noted. But I don't know what folks expects from white leather and grey suede.

Superbly comfortable, and retro styling goodness

I've been hoping for a retro style barefoot trainer for ages, and the Kelso 100% fits the bill. Love the styling, and it is insanely comfortable, straight out of the box. Great, great shoe.

Balance your Spine!

I think the major benefit of the Xero sole design Is the way it somehow distributes your bodies weight differently than any other shoe.

Great! Like all my other xero shoes

Great fit and the same awesome comfort as my other Xero Shoes and boots. Like the look, a little more like a skate shoe than a trail runner.

My favorite Xero Shoes

I own three other pairs of Xero shoes, but these are the most comfortable ones that I own. These shoes need to be made in more colors. I bought the black and white ones and the match a lot of different clothes and look really good.
