Product Description

Our lightest, most minimalist, closest-to-barefoot performance shoe.

 


The comic book character The Flash gets his super speed from the Speed Force. We think this shoe will do the same for you.

While we made Speed Force to be a racing shoe, people are wearing it for MUCH more. Some take it on trails (watch where you put your feet given the feedback you’ll get from the 4.5mm FeelTrue® rubber sole), and others simply wear it all day, every day, because of the sock-like comfort.

 

Speed Force 360°

 




Here’s what you’ll love when you slip on your Speed Force:

  • LIGHTWEIGHT – Men’s 9 is only 5.8 ounces
  • GRIPPY – The tread pattern in the FeelTrue® rubber sole feels super sure-footed
  • “BARE-LY THERE” – the mesh upper with its silky smooth lining gives you a real barefoot-feeling

The other reasons you’ll love the Speed Force are thanks to its Xero Shoes DNA:

  • A wide toe box — lets your toes spread, splay and move naturally
  • Low-to-the-ground design for balance and agility
  • Non-elevated, “zero-drop” heel for proper posture
  • The flexible sole lets your feet bend and move the way they’re supposed to, naturally
  • Removable 3mm insole lets you choose the amount of barefoot feel you want
  • 100% vegan-friendly — no animal products are used in the Speed Force
  • 5,000 mile sole warranty

We designed the Speed Force to be a racing shoe. Our lightest, most minimalist, closest-to-barefoot shoe.

What we’ve found, though, is people are wearing it for WAY more than that.

Road running, light trail running, walking, hiking, working out, CrossFit, slacklining… it’s up to you. Once you get them on, I’m sure you’ll do things we never thought of (and we want to see pictures of that!).

Put on your Speed Force and Live Life Feet First!

The Prio is our best-selling “do almost anything” shoe — running, hiking, working out, you name it.
With a durable upper, it provides a bit more protection.

The Speed Force is our lightest, “most barefoot” shoe.
More feedback as you step and a mesh upper that holds like a glove, you get a “barely there” experience.

The HFS is lighter than the Prio, more rugged than the Speed Force.
The HFS’s sole has a new tire tread-inspired sole that’s made to handle roads and have extra traction.
The huarache-inspired midfoot and instep straps are “hiding” behind a protective welded material.
And the lining using “37.5” material, which is designed for extra moisture wicking.

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 Speed Forces

To clean your Speed Forces, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry.
We do not recommend putting the Speed Force in the washing machine or dryer.

fantastic in all ways

I love the way they look feel and perform. I have been using them for long distance running and even at work where I’m on my feet all day. I’ve even used them to practice soccer drills on the field and they work ok there.

Second pair

Great product. This is my second pair of Speed Force. I wear them for an all day shoe at work in our shop/warehouse, at home, out for the day, everything shoe. They are extremely durable, and the sole is down to some of the tread / knobby’s being gone, but still usable like that.

Best shoes

I love my Speed Force. I wear them without this interior insole and they feel great. I walk in them daily and wear them to train. The customer service of Xeros is ON POINT!

Very speedy shoe

This shoe is really great for running fast. The shape reminds me of track spikes. I will be treating this as my race shoe.

Excellent

I purchased these to help with my flat feet and I sincerely believe they will strengthen my arch. Please take it slow if you are transitioning from shoes with lots of support. Excellent Product.

Most comfortable shoes ever

I've been trying to manage my bunionettes and wide feet for several years now without resorting to surgery. Using the smallest toe separators along with these very flexible shoes, I walk with almost no pain whatsoever. I use these when I expect to walk on very flat surfaces (e.g., shopping and dining out). If you plan to walk on uneven surfaces, you will be more likely to step on something like a rock which may be uncomfortable so that might not be a suitable application.

Best Xeros I’ve tried!

I have a really wide toe splay, so even many barefoot shoes are too snug in the toe box. Xeros are on the narrow side for me, but these are so lightweight and flexible that they fit great! I’m a woman but purchased the men’s version to get more width. They’re super comfortable.

Speed Force: My go to shoe

I love this shoe & wear it constantly! So many great features equals so many great benefits. I’ve had 3 brain surgeries & this shoe has helped restore proprioception, stability & gait mechanics. Definitely my fave!!

Excellent Footwear

I’ve been wearing these for some of my morning rounds as well as longer walks. They have played a huge part in improving my running as well as giving me the full feeling of form. I highly recommend these to anyone and everyone!
