Z-Trail EV - Men

Why You'll Love Z-Trail EVIs it the best barefoot hiking sandal? We think so!​

The Z-Trail EV offers the perfect combination of lightweight protection, natural flexibility, durability, versatility, style and affordability.

“I Love these sandals! I wear these from the gym, to work, to church, to the beach. Great style and wearability!” – Larry K. USA, Verified Z-Trail EV Mens Customer Lightweight protection that feels just right.​

The Z-Trail EV features an updated 11 mm FeelLite™ sole with a middle layer of TrailFoam™ and an updated dual chevron lug pattern that offers the best combination of comfort, protection, and trail-ready traction while still allowing you to bend, move, flex, and feel the terrain beneath your feet.

At just 5.4 oz each for a men’s 9, the Z-Trail EV remains just as lightweight and versatile as the original best-selling Z-Trail.

Made from earth & vegan-friendly materials.​

The Z-Trail EV eliminates 70% of the unnecessary materials used in modern sports sandals – and because its soft, tubular quick-dry webbing is made from nylon sourced from recycled water bottles, it’s even better for the planet than before!

Z-Trail EV for everything you do. Made to Last.

Like all Xero Shoes, the outlast typical sandals has a 5,000 mile sole warranty to outlast typical running shoes. The new Z-Trail EV is ultra-capable yet stylish enough to accompany just about any look, so you can take anywhere from the trail to the boardwalk and everywhere in between.

Why "Z-Trail EV"?

If your feet don’t feel as good at the end of the day as they did in the beginning, you haven’t tried the Z-Trail EV. Life-changing comfort and superior performance come from letting your feet do what’s natural – bend, move, flex and feel.

Live Life Feet First

All Xero Shoes feature a non-elevated “zero drop” heel for proper posture, low-to-the-ground design for perfect balance and agility, and a flexible sole that gives you “just right” protection so you can bend, move, flex, and safely Feel the World® in total comfort.

Caring for your Z-Trail EVs

Because of the TrailFoam™ in the Z-Trail, these need a bit of extra attention. Do not leave Z-Trail in hot cars or exposed to intense or direct sunlight. This could cause the TrailFoam™ to deform and is not covered by our warranty.

To clean your Z-Trail sandals, hand wash with warm water, mild soap and allow them to air dry (away from direct sunlight).
