Xero Shoes Women's Oswego Knit Casual Shoe - Lightweight Zero Drop Barefoot Shoe

These shoes are very comfortable, and are as advertised. They have a wide toe box so I can often take a smaller size with that shape of shoes, but I had to return the size 8 and order a size 9 (I usually wear 8 - 8.5). The 9 fits well. The return was pretty easy though (using a local Amazon locker). They feel good on city streets, but when I walked on a very rocky path, were not quite so comfortable because you really can feel the texture of the surface of the ground, but it wasn't painful or anything. Could just take some getting used to, I suppose. This particular style has laces but is actually slip-on, and it's kind of difficult to get them on (I have to squeeze my feet in the top). Once on they feel very comfortable though. I would definitely buy Xero shoes again. I wish they were sold in more places so I can try them on before buying.

These shoes are great! I addedCURREX RunPro World's Leading Insole for Running - Walking insoles and its a perfect match.I used to be a marathon runner in my younger years. Fast forward 30+ years (and a debilitating bone diagnosis). I had to change jobs and now have to stand on my feet for 9 plus hours. I thought I was going to die! I have 20 plus pairs of shoes with and without memory foam. Nothing worked...until now.Now Momma wears a size 9 so being attractive on my feet..not so much. But, who cares! LolI will get several more pairs because they do have some nice colors for their shoes.Hope this review helped.

Comparing the sizing of the Oswego to the women’s Prio - these are very slightly smaller. I have both styles in the same size and have a little space in the toe of my Prios. In these my toes just touch the end but the shoes have enough give that it’s not uncomfortable. However I am in a women’s 11 (generally wear a 10 or 11 depending on the brand), with average width and narrow heels, so it would be nice to see a bigger range of sizes in the women’s line. There are some styles I won’t even bother trying since they are listed as running small, and the men’s sizing is too wide for me. Since making these my primary shoes I’ve seen a huge improvement in my knee pain, so I would love to be able to wear other styles as well.

They are tight around the ankle, huge relief to take them off. I have tried 3 xero shoes in 3 sizes and can't find a pair that are comfortable despite having followed the sizing information on their web site. I wear zero drop shoes so the issue is this brand!

These shoes were super comfortable and fit like a glove. I’m only upset about one thing… I got them in purple, which I can’t wear with my work clothes! ( still wearing my vibrams shoes until then) Otherwise these shoes are fantastic!

Very difficult to put on, but with determination and perseverance I succeeded! Pretty comfy if you manage to get them on. They definitely run AT LEAST a half size small, if not a full size. I like Xero Shoes, but these are quite pricey for what you get.

My Feet were greatly injured from rocker bottom shoes. I have had a long journey. I have only been able to wear one kind of shoe and they weren't perfect. I have had serious walking problems, I have needed a shoe that didn't tell me my foot what to do. I have researched shoes for a long time and so much it seems like a second job. Then I found Xero shoes. The science and the story sounded amazing and when I got them, they are as great as I expected. I really believe that these shoes are going help me learn all over again to walk correctly.

I wanted to love these shoes and I did except for the sizing. I bought a 10, what I normally wear, and my toes were right to the edge so I thought no problem I’ll just go a whole size up. I bought the 11 and I had the exact same issue as a whole size down. Too bad because I really liked the shoes
