Xero Shoes — every barefoot model, compared

Compare every Xero Shoes model in one place — Prio, HFS, Mesa Trail, Scrambler and more.

Xero Shoes is one of the best-known names in minimalist footwear, recognised for ultra-light soles, a genuinely wide toe box, and the natural ground feel barefoot wearers are after. This page lays every Xero model side by side — from the Prio and HFS road-and-fitness line to the Mesa Trail and Scrambler trail shoes built on Michelin soles.

Rather than clicking through individual pages, you can compare models directly here: which Xero suits the road, which handles the trail, and which keeps your feet warm through winter. The Prio range is the versatile all-rounder for everyday wear and the gym; the Scrambler and Mesa Trail models are made for rough ground; and the Alpine and Mika boots cover the cold months.

How does Xero stack up against other barefoot brands? Many Xero models come in below Vivobarefoot on price, while Wildling leans more into wool and a soft, textile feel. If an extra-wide toe box is your priority, Xero is a strong pick.

Compare every available model, colour and size below, and find the Xero that fits your foot and your activity. New to barefoot? See our barefoot running shoes or the full barefoot shoes hub.
