The Prio is the most comfortable shoe for everything you do.
Whether you’re out on a run, trying out a new trail, hitting the gym, or toeing a slackline, you’ll love the Prio’s combination of freedom and protection.
“Just-Right” Protection:
The Prio uses the same 5.5mm FeelTrue® rubber as our Z-Trek sandal, so you get great protection while still getting the ground feedback that your feet love. The optional 2mm insole lets you have more or less of a “barefoot feel” depending on your mood.
Lightweight:
A women’s 7 is only 6.4 ounces each – you’ll barely notice you have them on.
Secure-feeling:
Our Huarache sandal-inspired reflective heel and instep straps hold your foot securely – with or without socks – while keeping your toes free to move.
Plus, the Prio is made from 100% vegan-friendly materials.
Imagine you’ve just come home after a long day at work or on the trail. If you can’t wait to take your shoes off the moment you walk in the front door, you’ve been wearing the wrong shoes.
Life-Changing comfort and superior performance come from using your feet naturally.
That’s what Xero Shoes let you do.
Natural Fit. Natural Motion. Natural Feel.
Plus Xero Shoes are backed with a 5,000-mile sole warranty.
Note: As of July 31st, 2019 we changed the sizing for the Women’s Prio. If you had ordered a pair before that date, a half-size down with our current sizing should fit you now.
NOTE: The Prio fits like the TerraFlex, and has a wider toe box than conventional men’s shoes. If your feet are particularly wide, consider the Men’s Prio. Just make sure to adjust the size by 1.5 (for example, a men’s 8 is the same length as a women’s 9.5).

I have been wearing barefoot-style running shoes for the last few years, although they have become increasingly hard to find. The Prios are my first pair of constructed Xero shoes (I do have a pair of the DIY sandals that I tried to cut to better suit my feet with limited success). I have only run in the Prios twice so far, but there’s no need to wear them in. I think they are more comfortable than my previous minimalist shoes, striking the right balance between groundfeel and protection. Landing on rocks awkwardly hurts a little but that is a good thing - it reminds me to pay attention to foot placement. They are wider in the toe box, but the design allows a customised fit over the forefoot so my feet don’t slide around. I love the toe box, and plan to get some more injinji socks to really take advantage of toe freedom. I haven’t tested the Prios yet on more rugged trails but expect them to perform well. They seem to be constructed from more robust materials than my previous shoes which had to be retired because the uppers died in the Wonderlands run last year. Looking forward to testing that 5000 mile guarantee on the sole!

perfect shoe
Posted by Rosie on 9th Jan 2018
Only wish I’d bought these earlier. I was fed up with my foot almost rolling in my popular brand shoes due to the high soles. These are absolute heaven. I don’t want to take them off. I will never purchase another generic running shoe again. Xero all the way!!

Great Comfortable Shoe
Posted by Melanie Morris on 31st Oct 2017
I love these shoes just wish they came in more styles for every day "on trend" wear. There's no gross feeling of your toes squishing together and they're so comfortable!
