HFS II - Women - Xero Shoes

Q: What's different between the Prio, HFS, and Speed Force?

The Prio is our best-selling "do almost anything" shoe -- running, hiking, working out, you name it. With a durable upper, it provides a bit more protection. The Speed Force is our lightest, "most barefoot" shoe. More feedback as you step and a mesh upper that holds like a glove, you get a "barely there" experience. The HFS is lighter than the Prio, more rugged than the Speed Force. The HFS's sole has a tire tread-inspired sole that's made to handle roads and have extra traction. The huarache-inspired midfoot and instep straps are "hiding" behind a protective welded material. And the moisture wicking lining for extra comfort and breathability.

Product Description

“These are really comfortable shoes. My feet never feel confined, in fact, I forget I’m wearing shoes.” – Heather P.

HFS II – A New Take On Our Most Popular Running Shoe

An evolution of our best selling road running shoe, the HFS II is even more comfortable, and more stylish.

While we call it a road runner, we know you’ll do much more in it and can’t wait to see the pics of where it takes you and what you do.

Light, Grippier, and Comfier

Like the original HFS, the HFS II is super lightweight (6.7 oz, W7) so you’ll feel like you’re flying down the road. And with a new tire tread-inspired outsole, you’ll feel secure even if you go off road.

HFS II is so comfy, you might forget to take them off at the end of your run – we’ve even had people go to bed still wearing their shoes because they forgot they had them on!

We Haven’t Sole-d Out 🙂

The HFS II sole looks thick, but it’s an illusion.

We’ve added a thin BareFoam™ layer for extra protection and wrapped it, cup-like, around the upper giving the HFS II a more familiar-looking profile.

Made to Last

Like all Xero Shoes, the HFS II has a 5,000 mile sole warranty to outlast typical running shoes that are supposed to be replaced after 200-500 miles.

Why HFS?

Well, it could be for the “Highly Flexible Sole” that lets your foot move naturally, or the face you’ll make when you put it on — “Happy Face Shoe” — or the way you run in it with a “High Frequency Stride”, or what you exclaim when you put it on and feel the comfort and light weight: “Holy ___ ___!”

There are as many possible answers as there are things you’ll do in the HFS II.

WE MAKE PERFORMANCE SHOES SO COMFORTABLE, YOU’LL FORGET THEY’RE EVEN ON.

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 HFS II.

Life-changing comfort and superior performance come from letting your feet do what’s natural – bend, move, flex and feel.

All Xero Shoes feature a wider, foot-shaped toe box that lets your toes spread and relax, 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 Live Life Feet First!

Do you ship internationally?

We do! We’ve sold Xero Shoes to people in more than 85 countries around the world.
We use the US Postal service to send our shipments. The cost to ship will depend on the weight of the package and the delivery speed you select; several options will be provided at checkout.

All domestic shipments come with tracking. Limited tracking is available for some first class international shipments depending on the country, and full tracking is available with all Priority Express and Express International shipments.

Though almost all of our international orders arrive without incident, we strongly advise you to select Priority Express International or Express International if you live in a country with a less reliable postal service, including (but not limited to) India, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, and Indonesia. We cannot guarantee delivery of packages shipped using First Class International.

International delivery can take anywhere from 3 days to 8 weeks depending on how long your order spends in customs at the border.

Please note that some countries do require the payment of import duties for international shipments above a certain value. We advise you to know the import regulations of your country and understand that you will be responsible for payment of any duties and fees imposed by your government at the border.

All packages will be marked as merchandise; as a commercial shipper, we are not able to mark a package as a gift (if you’re giving Xero Shoes as a gift, that’s not the same as us sending a gift).
Also, check our Stores page. There may be a Xero Shoes dealer closer to you.

Durable Shoe, bad colors

I bought this shoe fall 2023, and wear it almost every day to walk and run in. I've put almost 600 running miles on them (not counting my daily walks to and from work) and I am very impressed with the durability of the shoe. I had assumed the uppers would break down where my foot flexes, as I've had this happen to me with shoes in the past, and I was proven wrong! The uppers look almost brand new, the soles are fine, and the shoes wash up so nice after putting them in the washing machine! Overall I would buy the shoe again, but I wish it was available in prettier colors, I'm not really a fan of the new "tidal wave" color and offering 2 different shades of gray is kind of boring. I would love to see something bright, but doesn't scream "barefoot shoe". I love some of the old HFS colors and I'm sad there is no pink or purples offered in these. Even the HFS gray color was pretty.

Great shoe

I’ve worn somewhat minimalist shoes for years, but this is the first time I bought a real pair. It’s wonderful to have all that toe room, and I’ve adjusted quite well in the last few days!

RIP original HFS

the HFS II just hurts my foot and my ankle. Ive alway had flat feet and LOVED the first HFS shoe, yes it was rather thin but so amazing for my feet. The happiest my feet my had ever been. If they were going to upgrade it, they should have left the sole as is and added the slightest bit of cushioning IF at that, or changed the shoe laces to something that didnt come undone. The rest was marvellous. now....The HFS II have the side of the soles coming up ever so slightly on the inside yet that is enough to make in an entirely different shoe. They hurt the inner part of my foot and even my ankle, after wearing them only a couple of hours to workout. I tried to stick it out....just caused pain that took a couple of weeks to clear. Too bad, this was an amazing shoe and not many others on the market, now the HFS II is no different than the rest. You were loved HFS! I would love to see the originals come back, everyone at my local gym has them.....we're now looking for something else.

Warming up to them

Really wasn’t sure when I got them. It was a very different feel from normal tennis shoes but I needed something flat to work on weight training and balance exercises. So far I like them more as I’m getting used to them.
