Ideally I have everyone wearing their own bare feet but the next thing closest to your bare foot are zero drop minimal shoes that allow you to almost be barefoot for your training sessions!  I know most of my clients don’t like stepping on dirty floors even though their hands are just as covered with germs!

One of my clients read about these new affordable minimal shoes and I started looking into them for myself.

I was impressed in their mission and purpose especially as I have been on a long time mission (ten years) to get clients to train in a minimal shoe and stop wearing these big bulky unnatural running shoes for their workouts.

Why Should You Go For Minimal Shoes

Go for a run. 

Doesn’t matter where, down the trail, around the block, to the store, to the park. 

When feet move naturally it doesn’t matter where you go, the joy is in the movement. 

Xero Prio running shoes allow for natural movement. 

Because they were designed for feet. 

Which come to think of it, all shoes should be, it’s just a shame most shoes aren’t. 

Narrow toe boxes, overstuffed outsoles, rigid shanks, the list goes on and on. 

That’s not what you’ll find in a pair of Prio’s, instead you’ll find:

Natural FIT — A wide toe box lets toes spread and relax. Plus the “XERO-drop” sole (non-elevated heel and low-to-the ground) allows for proper posture, balance and agility

Natural MOTION — The Prio is flexible enough to let your feet bend, move, and flex the way, well, that feet are supposed to.

Natural FEEL — The Prio uses 5.5mm FeelTrue rubber that offers great protection while still getting needed ground feedback.

So move naturally, go for a run, find your new favorite shoes, check out the Xero Prio running shoes t

Feet are your foundation.One quarter of the bones and joints in your entire body are in your feet.

You have more nerve endings in your soles than anywhere but your fingertips and lips.

What this means:

Your feet are meant to bend, to move, to flex, to Feel The World^®.  

XeroShoes let them do that.  Your sole is the foundation for your body, and our patented FeelTrue® soles are the foundation of all our shoes and sandals. They let you connect to the world, give you just-right protection, and are durable enough that they have a 5,000 mile sole warranty.  Add our foot-first designs on top of those soles and you have a footwear line that’s all about what’s natural.
