Xero Z-Trail EV Dusty Rose

A Versatile & High-Performance Sports Sandal

The Xero Z-Trail EV is a durable, versatile, and lightweight sports sandal that’s perfect for almost any activity. This water-resistant, vegan sandal possesses a 10 mm FeelLite rubber outsole that offers foot protection and grip without sacrificing ground feel. The comfortable tubular webbing system holds the sandal securely in place, and the adjustable Z-pattern allows you to get the perfect tension across your foot, over your foot, and behind your heel.

Flat Support Platform, Flexible Rubber Sole

The Z-Trail EV is as functional in the water as it is on land, and its flexible sole means that it packs small, making it the perfect travel companion. This zero-drop minimalist sandal has a comfortable BareFoam footbed and a completely flat sole from heel to toe to help enable natural arch support. It also possesses a built-in heel cup to keep the sandal in place and debris from getting under your foot.

Works Well With Other Helpful Footgear

The Xero Z-Trail EV works well in combination with Correct Toes, Injinji toe socks, and Pedag metatarsal pads. Each Z-Trail EV sandal weighs about 5.5 oz. Because of the TrailFoam in the Z-Trail EV, these sandals need a bit of extra attention. Please do not leave the Z-Trail EV in hot cars or exposed to intense, direct sun, as this could cause the TrailFoam to deform.

Note: If you are new to using Xero footwear, we recommend that you start in slowly, gradually building up your wear-time and giving your body the chance to adapt to the thinner soles and the increased workload on your feet.

To get the most out of your Xero Z-Trail EV sandals, the manufacturer recommends that you order your normal US shoe size. For example, if you normally wear a women's US size 8 shoe, consider ordering an 8 in the Xero Z-Trail EV.

If you're on the fence about what size to order, consider ordering both sizes and then simply return the size that doesn't fit as well for a refund. If you have concerns about sizing, feel free to contact us or Xero customer service.

Sizing Tip: Correct Toes toe spacers will often add width and length to the foot. If you’re planning to wear Correct Toes with your footwear, we recommend sizing up, especially if you are on the border between sizes.
