Xero Shoes HFS Original Review (Long-Term)
Two years ago I got the Xero Shoes HFS Original — my first Xero Shoes shoes. I've put more than a thousand miles on them. This is my long-term review.
Xero Shoes
Xero Shoes is a popular brand of minimalist shoes (or "barefoot shoes"). Founded in 2009 by Steven Sashen and Lena Phoenix out of Boulder, Colorado, as "Invisible Shoes" at invisibleshoe.com, Xero Shoes was born in 2012. Xero Shoes sells millions of shoes, leading the market with a variety of minimalist footwear for every occasion — though they still sell their original DIY huaraches kits. From running to casual wear to sandals and more, Xero Shoes likely has your minimalist shoe needs covered.

Review - Xero Shoes Umara Z-Trail Minimalist Sandals
