Xero ShoesWomen’s Prio Barefoot Athletic Sneaker

Love these. They are a little funny looking, I call them my Toddler shoes. If in doubt on size, go up a half size. Ordered 6, had to return and reorder 6-1/2. Love the wide toe box, have multiple pairs. Finally, don’t have to look for shoes that come in wide widths.

I’ve had these shoes for over six months and wear them three times per week to the gym. Very comfortable and let me spread my toes for better balance.

These are outstanding shoes! Very well-made with a very generous toe-box. I have tried cheaper zero-gravity style shoes, and these are definitely the highest quality ones I have tried. I highly recommend them and plan to buy more.

These shoes are comfortable, I like that the toe box is wider than most shoes. But they are not the most attractive shoes.

I have owned Xero's before and Love them. Very Comfortable right out of the box. I do order a half size bigger.

I am absolutely in love with the womens' Prio sneakers. They have protection on the sides and front toes, like regular shoes, so they can last and be roughed up a bit. There's mesh around also, for breathability. The souls have a lot of traction, and durability for being so thin, so they've lasted over a year so far. I would consider these even slip resistant for the most part. The laces are adjustable to shape to your feet. They have awesome light reflection straps in the back and on the sides. They are absolutely flat, with Xero drop, giving you better posture. Without my orthodontics, they work better for improving bunion pain. Oddly the orthotics must give too much lift.But...they should have a wider toe box for wide feet. If you're in between sizes, I'd suggest sizing up. And they don't offer them in a mens' 5.5 or 6, to order for a slightly larger toe box. Bunion people may not be satisfied with the width.They are super light and flexible and give you a free feeling. You can feel the ground and some rocks, but not too much. I believe the souls are perfect for a sturdy yet light, barefoot shoe.If anyone knows of a comparable brand that are wider, please let me know. Or different line of Prio. Thank You!

I received these shoes and I tried them on immediately. I knew these are gonna be something I was gonna be purchasing over and again.. I have a neurodegenerative disorder and I like to have my feet barefoot most of the time in my home and then when I’m walking outside, I’ve noticed recently that any shoe that has a high platform on it. I struggle with even tennis shoes. So these shoes are perfect. I’ve walked in them all weekend and I’m in love.

I'll try to make this short and simple for my review.I ordered 3 different pairs of "barefoot" style shoes as I was looking to have something for weightlifting so I could feel more ground as I still need somewhat of support due to plantar fascitis.Xero Prio - feels sorta bulky (little heavier), fits true to size and has lots of wiggle room for toes. I think this one would definitely be a good running shoe or if you want more weight on your feet.Xero HFS - feels very lightweight, fits true to size but as the manufacturer website states to go up half a size is totally a personally preference. I had plenty of wiggle room left in the toe box and felt much more secure in this shoes when doing lunges, deadlifts, etc. I would recommend this one hands down but your width of foot might depend if you want to go up half a size or not. I just feel overall the flexibility and movement was hands down better in this one. I did order 2 of these...both regular size and half size up and I felt that the regular size that I normally wear worked better for me.Vivobarefoot - everyone rants and raves about this brand but honestly it was just OK.. I mean the gripping power of the underneath of the shoe was spot on for weightlifting, wiggle room is more than necessary,etc. I did not like the front area of the shoe at all when doing lunges or calf raises...the plasticy/vinyl part of the shoe near the boxes ended up hurting my feet because of how it scrunched. It was not really a "natural" movement. I just felt for the amount of money spent, the quality could be better. I could see that the material can easily come undone overtime from constantly "scrunching" when walking, lunging, etc... For $160...NOT worth it. They do run true to size but for the amount of money I feel it's a waste of money.Again, just an honest review and my opinion. Good luck!
