GET WET & WILD: Adventure-ready minimalist shoes that aren’t afraid to get wet! We’ve taken our ever-popular Cloud sandals, updated them with a grippier 6.5mm FeelTrue sole, and created barefoot sandals for men with extra traction. Take them paddleboarding, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, running, or strolling, and get the grip you need without losing the natural feel. And at a weight of just 5.2oz for men’s 9, Aqua Clouds float on water! This means you’ll never lose them to the lake or ocean.

THE FLIP FLOP KILLER: So comfortable you’ll forget you have them on; so versatile you won’t want to wear anything else. Xero Shoes are known for comfort, but our new Aqua Clouds take it to a whole new level. The embedded, textured 3mm BareFoam layer now spans the entire footbed, while a shaped heel cup helps keep out debris. And just like the original Clouds, these hiking water shoes for men stay secured with our patented, pressure point-eliminating huarache-style lacing system.

VEGAN SANDALS WITH A CONSCIENCE: These are more than just adventure-fueling, feet-pampering water sandals for men; they are a testament to earth-friendly sustainability. Our lightweight barefoot shoes are proudly vegan, which means no animal products are used in construction. We’re also making more of our shoes with fast-growing, sustainable materials and transitioning to using recycled products. All in an effort to reduce our carbon footprint and take better care of our beautiful planet.

CONQUER ANY TRAIL: Go off the beaten path, embrace the wilderness, and indulge your love for adventure. TerraFlex II gives you the signature barefoot feel of Xero Shoes with a serving of trail-gripping traction. All courtesy of the aggressive 4mm lugs that help you dominate the terrain. To enhance your experience whenever you go hiking, these zero drop shoes have a protective toe bumper, reflective straps for better visibility, and a tire-tread-inspired sole for confident traction.

FEEL THE WORLD: Men’s hiking shoes inspired by nature: that’s what separates TerraFlex II from all the rest. We designed them to give you the fun and freedom of natural, barefoot movement with just the right amount of protection to take you wherever you want to go. The secret behind the freedom? Our patented 5mm FeelTrue sole that lets feet bend and flex naturally, a low-to-the-ground design that allows you to connect to the world, and a wide toe box that gives toes room to spread.

YOU’LL BE HIKING IN COMFORT: Focus on the majesty of nature; not on the strain of achy feet. 3mm of embedded BareFoam shows bumps who’s boss, while a removable 2mm insole gives you the freedom to adjust the level of ground feedback. Our men’s trail running shoes also have an upgraded welded upper for increased midfoot flexibility and an abrasion-resistant wicking mesh that helps keep feet cool & dry. And at just 8.9oz for men’s 9, you won’t stop raving about the ‘barely there’ feel.
