I think the products are pretty good. I don't like your exchange policy, however. AND I would remove the 5,000 mile guarantee as my first pair of running shoes were well under 1,000 miles before serious sole wear. I woud enjoy more input into your designs as I am a serious professional user of your products, meaning i wear them for work.
Uso scarpe barefoot da circa un anno, e le Xero si sono rivelate le migliori in quanto a robustezza e qualità dell'assemblaggio. Anche il comfort è molto buono ed esteticamente, se non altro, appaiono esattamente come in foto, cosa non scontata in questa tipologia di scarpe. Tra gli aspetti migliorabili la taglia risulta più piccola del normale. Il design è poco coraggioso e a tratti trascurato, chiaramente non è la priorità dell'azienda. Peccato, perchè voglio che il mio piede sia comodo e in salute, ma le scarpe dovrebbero essere anche belle.
I already love Xero shoes! I was looking for a slip on that didn't squeeze my toes, and these fit the bill! I love the style and comfort. My only complaint is I did get a bit raw on my heel, after wearing first few times. Other than that, these are great!

I’ve been ordering Xero shoes going on 3-4 years now. I’m always impressed with all the shoes they make, the colors, how quickly they deliver and what it has done to my feet. There was even one time an order was messed up and customer service just sent me another pair free of charge and fixed the issue for me. I’ll forever stay with this company for shoes so long as I am able
The Genesis women's sandal arrived two days after ordering via DPD. I liked that minimalist packaging was used for transit of the sandals. They're instantly comfortable and easy to adjust and have sufficient width for my wide feet. The only thing I would note is that I can clearly feel the plastic stud underneath that is holding the toe thong in place. I ordered the Xero women's size UK 7.5/EU 39.5/US 9 which fit well, after returning a UK 6.5/EU 38.5/US 8 H-Trail (to another company selling Xero products) that were too small.
