Kelso

Product Description

“These are super comfortable, they have really nice leather and ventilation. I got a lot of compliments on them today!” – Lindsay M.

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.

WHAT MAKES 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 (8.6 ounces each for a Women’s 7) 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 glide 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?

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.

Caring for your Kelsos

To clean your Kelsos, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry.

So comfy and stylish

This is my 5th pair of xero shoes and I love them! I can’t wait to try these on the tennis court 🙂

Incredible. Comfortable, well made shoes.

From the description of the shoe, I thought I was going to get sheet of fabric and a rubber band to hold the fabric to my feet. These are extremely durable, solid shoes. Good size toe box, enough ‘padding’ and structure to provide protection for your feet, and super comfortable. I’ve worn them to play tennis, go hiking, walk the dogs, everything. I am not missing the arch support or gel padding of my normal sport shoes. Love these shoes.

Love these! Great gummy sole for parkour, looks old school. Super comfortable. Will be buying another pair to have when this pair wears out.

Comfy, cute and perfect fit!

I love LOVE these shoes. They look cute, and are super comfy. I wear them to work, on walks and even when I’m lifting weights at the gym. Wearing barefoot shoes means I’m more stable and my wide feet get to breathe.

Awesome shoes

Amazing shoes and I will be buying another pair shortly. Love the feel and the wide toe box! Only downside for me as a Canadian shopper was that my regular size was slightly too small for me, and having already paid $40 in duties and import fees, and adding in the cost to ship them back, I’ll probably just hold onto them and hope someone else can wear them, and buy the next size up. (But obviously this is even a bigger indicator of how much I like them)! Highly recommend the product and the company!!

Stylish zero drop shoes!

This is my second pair of Xeros (my other pair are Prios). Very impressed with both - I prefer the more substantial soles of these styles. The Kelso is a more fashionable look while still keeping the wide toe box I need. The leather, suede and dark teal stripes are high quality and great aesthetic. I’ve gotten several compliments and inquiries about them already. Fit is TTS, arrived on time. I recommend!

Cute & comfortable

I love these shoes! They fit well and are so comfortable. I wore them all day at Disney and my feet are thanking me! I'm so glad I bit the bullet and bought them! The color (pink) is perfect: subtle but feminine. The laces stay tied.

The Kelso is so cool

I like the style because is looks like the cool sneakers that I used to wear before having to switch to barefoot-style shoes. Reminds me of a skate shoe or a low-top basketball sneaker. I think the upper is thicker with padding than most Xero owners will be used to, but it hasn't bothered me while walking on my treadmill or out running errands. It's like a bit of extra topside protection from whatever life throws at me...has already saved me from stubbing my toes during chore time. The sole is still thin and padding-free, just like I expect and need. I also like the leather and suede upper because, hey, it rains where I live, and the typical mesh material just doesn't cut it.

I love these shoes!!!!

I have been looking so long for comfortable shoes. I have a high arch and I’ve always had trouble with shoes. Seven months ago I broke my pinky toe and anytime I wear any shoes besides my Xero’s that pinky toe hurts! I told my husband I’m done with other shoes and I bought four of the new styles today! Last week I went on a shopping trip with my sister and her feet and back were aching and my feet felt just fine! Needless to say she ordered herself a pair of Xero’s when we got home! My feet and heart are so thankful for this creative genius idea!
