Xero Shoes Men's Kelso Barefoot Sneaker

My “go-to” shoes for work and the gym. I started wearing barefoot shoes about a year ago, but bought a few pairs of cheaper brands to see if I liked them. I always wanted to try the Xeros, so when I found these at a reasonable price, I jumped on it. The Xeros are a difference maker and a definite upgrade to the others I tried. The material has held up to everyday wear and is lightweight and comfortable. They’re like wearing slippers took. At the gym, they provide a sturdy flat base for my lifts. The color and pattern are nice and go with several outfits. They’re sporty and attractive. Definitely recommend these if you’re thinking about barefoot shoes.

I love these shoes. I use them mostly to play tennis and walk to and from work. My first pair of Xero shoes I use for hiking, so I looked for some that could be used for sports and found these on clearance. I had been a big ASICS fan, but was surprised at how agile I am with these - and my feet do not hurt. No slipping or rolling ankles. They are great. However if anyone from Xero reads this, please let me know what will work best for tennis (and pickleball). Highly recommend!

We've been wearing only barefoot shoes for years, starting in XeroShoes long ago. We loved the appearance of this model but ended up returning them. My son said they felt like they had too much fluffy padding in them, and they're more narrow than our older Zero models. His toes were hitting the sides. Too narrow is a deal breaker on barefoot shoes.

These Xeros were a splurge for me, but I was tired of quickly blowing through the soles and heels of cheaper gym shoes. As soon as I tried on the Xeros, I loved how light they felt and wore them nonstop (although it was a small adjustment walking without arch support). One of the decorative white side laces tore out within a couple months. I submitted a help ticket, and the company immediately and quickly solved my problem. Xero's comfortable shoe and warranty made me a permanent customer. My only "complaint" is they don't make a zero drop dress shoe. (Yet?)

Vey comfortable. The heel is a bit tight, but other than that, pretty good.

I ordered the Xero Kelso because of all the positive reviews. I first ordered an 11.5 but found them to be just a tad short. I sent them back and ordered a size 12. The 12s were too big and a bit floppy. Seemed like a huge difference between the 11.5 and 12. Then I noticed that the left and right shoes were a bit different in shape in the toe box. The right shoe was wider than the left. I have no doubt that these are quality shoes provided one can find the right size…and two shoes of the same size. I may try again down the road after another brand of shoe I did end up buying wears out because I need a high quality, zero drop, wide toe box court shoe for pickleball.

After waiting literally 3 weeks for them to ship and arrive i was extremely disappointed. These shoes aren't any wider than other shoes, in fact the box doesn't say anything about them being a "wide" shoe even though they are advertised a such. I assume they're the typical "M" width. As for comfort I'm NOT impressed at all. This is not the shoe you want, and it's definitely not worth the 3 week wait to get them. As for walking ability they tend to ride on my ankle bone and rub it raw. They seem good quality, just not what they're advertised to be. Id compare them to a puma shoe if i had to say they are similar to anything.... If 0 stars was an option they would get 0 stars.

Buy from Xero directly to get sole warranty. They will not cover from orva stores. Amazon/seller makes replacement difficult if not impossible. The design itself is very good, though not as wide a toe box as one might expect.

They're wide, they're comfortable and they're stylish in a 70s tennis shoe kind of way.

Alles Gut bin zufrieden

Me encantaron, son mis primeros tenis barefoot y la vdd se me hacen super cómodos. Solo recomiendo pedir una media talla mas grande dado que cuando pedi mi talla habitual estaba un poco justo.

Too small for me, but their other models fit. Maybe not as stretchy

Die Schuhe sehen gut aus, an das klassische Design eines bekannten Sportartikel Herstellers angelehnt ;) Allerdings ist die Sohle steif und die Schuhe insgesamt unbequem, auch wenn es ein bisschen mehr Zehenfreiheit gibt als bei Standard Schuhen. Für mich unbefriedigend in Anbetracht des Preises, da habe ich mehr erwartet.
