About this deal

You don’t have the same traction you do in shoes. On the face of it this sounds like a negative, certainly if you are racing over gnarly ground, but the fact the your feet will move around in the sandals if you are not properly balanced and in control means you can't get away with being too aggressive, which is probably a good thing long term.

The right combination of barefoot-friendly ground feel plus protection, thanks to our exclusive 5mm FeelTrue® rubber outsoles Prio – Women– On July 31st, 2019 we updated the sizing for the Women’s Prio, it now fits true to size.* People like different types of fit — some like their toes near the end, others like 0.5 cm – 1.5 cm of extra space.The soles of the Genesis and Z-Trek are very thin and flexible. We recommend a snug fit for these styles. Note: Be sure to print the templates at Actual Size (100% Scale) and verify with a ruler after printing.

With the original design, there are no bonded materials, so everything could conceivably be recycled with ease, and they are suitable for vegans. They are infinitely adjustable, so you can spend a lot of time fiddling around with them to get them just right – although plenty of people love doing this. These lovelies are highly adjustable and true to size. The heel adjustments took me a bit to figure out, and that was mostly user error. I still need to trim the excess lace off, but at first it all felt kinda bulky. It no longer does. Granted, that may also have to do with the size of my foot. I'm a women's size 7, so the same hardware on my little hooves looks and feels more bulky than, say, if it were on my husband's size 13's. I don't have very much experience with other huaraches, as these are my first pair. Therefore, take my review with a grain of salt. However, I found that I still was able to feel the surfaces underneath my feet, but with a nice little 5mm of protection. Super soft toe loop — since the huaraches-inspired lacing goes around your entire foot, you don’t feel the toe loop the way you do in a flip-flop or other thong sandal Find your usual shoe size on the charts below. For the Z-Trek in particular, try 1 size smaller than your usual size.So now, the Genesis huaraches are my default running sandals and I am not thinking about buying another pair of running sandals for running on asphalt or easy trails. Verify the fit by printing the appropriate size template and comparing it to your foot. This step is very important for getting a great fit the first time.

To get the perfect fit, loosen the heel strap, slide your foot in, position your foot and now, adjust the laces, being very careful and not using force, you do this by grabbing the lace and pulling in a sideways direction from the hole. Don't pull upwards as you can damage the sandal. Adjust the side of lace that has a knot (left for the right shoe and right for the left shoe) so that the knot is sort of in the centre of your foot, after that's done, adjust the lace that goes to the toepost so that it's snuggly tight. Then finally, adjust the heel strap while the cup is in the right position on the heel. Now you're done and have the perfect fit. The Genesis is easy to put on. Slide your foot in and pull heel strap on your heels. To remove them, pull the heel straps and pull out your feet. That’s all. The Genesis Sandal is the footwear you would want to grab if you’re looking for protection while maintaining the most minimalist experience with a shoe. Although the huarache-style sandal has its limitations in terms of grip and dorsal foot protection, it’s multi-purpose enough for many reviewers to use on a number of activities. All of our children’s shoes are wider than conventional children’s shoes. If you normally wear a larger size to get a wider fit in conventional shoes, you may not have to do that with Xero Shoes.

As seen on

This is a phenomenally comfortable, rugged, and lightweight shoe. It exudes strength while also allowing your feet to move freely…Great for hiking, biking, and camping. I don’t want to take them off,” one customer wrote for the TerraFlex Trail Running and Hiking Shoe. The Z-Trek and Z-Trail come in wider widths for men’s sizes and narrower widths for women’s sizes. However, many men with narrow feet find a great fit in the women’s sizes, and many women with wider feet find a great fit in the men’s sizes. However, if you run up and down steep ascents and descents like I run on a winding road with 900 meters ascent in just 8.5 km (and same descent) to a mountain fort, you won’t be very sure that your foot won’t slip inside your sandals. This gets worse in rains! I have fairly wide feet for their length and have had issues with many shoe brands in the past. My foot pad fits on these, and I can spread my toes to full wingspan. Watchthe video below to see how to use the template. For the Genesis, the toe post position is very important:
