We recommend choosing your usual size.
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.
Sizing – The Prio is a great barefoot running shoe. The fit is true to size. If you’re an 8, try an 8. Keep in mind that Xero Shoes have a wider toe box that allows your toes to spread out naturally while walking and running, so your initial fit may feel a little big, but that’s just your toes getting some much-needed breathing room.
Women’s – Xero Shoes women’s shoes are wider than conventional women’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.
If you think of your foot as particularly wide, you can consider ordering a men’s style. Many of our female customers find a great fit in Xero Shoes men’s styles. Just be sure to adjust the size by 1.5 (for example a men’s 7 is the same as a women’s 8.5).
Toeing a slackline? Powering through cardio? Running errands? Whatever you're doing, the zero-drop Prio Running and Fitness Shoe improves your posture and gait to prevent foot fatigue and knee injuries.
Every detail of the Prio exudes comfort, from the roomy toe box to the reassuring heel. Sandal-inspired instep straps keep your foot secure - with socks or without. For more of a barefoot connection, remove the 2 mm insole.
The 5.5 mm FeelTrue' outsole protects your feet and boasts great grip, all without weighing you down. A size 7 barely tips the scale at 6.4 ounces.
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.
The Prio fits true to size.
Note: As of July 31st 2019 Xero Shoes changed the sizing for the Women's Prio. We now recommend ordering your regular size. (If you previously ordered a 9.5, a 9 should now fit you properly)

Ask yourself this question: Do your feet feel better at the end of the day than they did at the beginning?
If not, it’s because your shoes aren’t letting your feet do what’s NATURAL.
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.
This means your feet are meant to bend, to move, to flex, and feel the world.
Comfort and performance come from letting your feet do what they’re meant to do, naturally.
Xero Shoes let them do that with what we call “3 Pillars of Natural”:
- Natural FIT — wide toe boxes let your toes spread and relax. A non-elevated (zero-drop) heel for proper posture.
- Natural MOTION — super flexible to let your feet bend and move naturally. Low-to-the-ground for balance and agility.
- Natural FEEL — the patented FeelTrue® soles give you just-right protection while still giving the ground feedback your brain needs for efficient, natural movement.
Plus they’re affordable, and so durable that they have a 5,000 mile sole warranty.
