Zelen - Women - Xero Shoes

Product Description

“The Zelen is a great road running shoe. I love that they look classy enough that can also wear them in jeans and around town. Plus, it’s made with eco-friendly materials!” – Crissy D.

Introducing the eco-friendly Zelen: comfort and sustainability come together in this zero-drop, minimalist road running shoe made with recycled materials.

WHAT MAKES THE ZELEN THE IDEAL SUSTAINABLE RUNNING SHOE?

EARTH-FRIENDLY. VEGAN-FRIENDLY. FOOT-FRIENDLY.

The Zelen features a breathable knit upper made with rPET recycled material and a silky-smooth sock liner to keep you cool and comfortable mile after mile.

The flexible yet durable 5.0 mm FeelTrue® sole features a tire-inspired tread to give you confident grip and control on asphalt, cement, and pavement – all without sacrificing the ground feel and feedback you love from Xero Shoes.

The tension straps, made from earth-friendly recycled materials, are adjustable for added support and stability, allowing you to push further and faster. At a lightweight 6.5 oz per shoe in a women’s 7, the barely-there feel of this sustainable runner will have you flying down the road yellin’ “Zelen”!

PERFORMANCE AND STYLE.

The all-new Zelen is an eco-friendly performance shoe that’s fast enough to tackle your next half-marathon, yet stylish enough to pair with jeans, shorts, or just about any outfit. Hit your next sprint in these, then hit your next girls’ night.

WE MAKE PERFORMANCE SHOES SO COMFORTABLE, YOU’LL FORGET THEY’RE EVEN ON.

If your feet don’t feel as good at the end of a run as they did at the beginning, you haven’t tried the Zelen.

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 supports proper posture. The low-to-the-ground design promotes perfect balance and agility. And our flexible soles give you “just right” protection so you can bend, move, and flex while you 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.

How do I send a gift certificate?

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.

What’s your return policy?

Caring for your Zelens

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

Wonderful first barefoot running shoes!

I started wearing barefoot everyday shoes exclusively in September 2022, and noticed about six months later that my toes and feet were widening to what I understood as their more natural shape. By April 2023, my conventional running shoes felt too tight on my toes, so I started looking for barefoot running shoes as the final step in switching over to 100% barefoot shoes. I felt some healthy soreness in new muscles being used, as they should, after the second run in these Xero Zelen running shoes. They are extremely comfortable, give my feet the perfect amount of space, look stylish, and make me feel much safer when I run because my feet can feel the ground so much better so I have less risk of tripping. This added stability is especially important as now I run with my baby in a jogging stroller! Thank you so much, Xero!

I’m so so grateful to finally have sneakers that are perfect for me!! I’ve been looking for several years and have been going barefoot, wearing ballet shoes, etc. Now I’m walking miles again! Hurrah!

So comfortable I forget I am wearing them

I now own 3 different pairs of Xero shoes and like them all. They all have "different" purposes...one pair for hiking and walking over mixed terrain, one for just everyday wear, and the third for my morning and evening dog walks.

Love my new runners

These are great. They are super lightweight and great for running. I may have trouble keeping white clean with all the dirt and mud from recent rain. I have tried other brands, but Xero is my favorite because of the wide toe box for my wide foot. No more numb toes after my run!
