Genesis - Lightweight, Packable, Travel-Friendly Sandal

Simplicity in motion. A ready-to-wear barefoot-inspired sandal for travel, walking, hiking, yoga, working out, paddling, even running ultra marathons.

Do everything. Go everywhere. Naturally.

It’s called the Genesis because it was inspired by Xero's first product, its DIY sandal kit, and one of mankind’s first footwear designs, the huarache. Then, of course, Xero updated it with the experience they've had and feedback they’ve gotten, from making barefoot-friendly sandals since 2009. Wearing Xero Shoes' Genesis lets you experience simplicity in motion. A ready-to-wear barefoot-inspired sandal for travel, walking, hiking, yoga, working out, paddling, even running ultra marathons.

Why you’ll love the Genesis

• The right combination of barefoot-friendly ground feel plus protection, thanks to the exclusive 5mm FeelTrue® rubber outsoles
• Lightweight; men’s US 9 is only 136g/4.6oz each
• Elegant contour holds your foot without unnecessary support
• Pre-laced—just slide your feet in and go
• Patent-pending tension adjustment system—find the perfect fit in seconds, slide your Xeros on and off you go in a flash
• Super soft toe loop—since the huaraches-inspired lacing goes around your entire foot, you don’t feel the toe loop the way you do in a flip-flop or other thong sandal
• Nylon Achilles strap with Silicone grip—holds on securely and comfortably
• Elevated ankle holes—the lace never touches the ground, and so it wears down slower
• Trim to fit—with just kitchen scissors, you can trim the Genesis to match your foot shape but if in doubt, bring them to your local cobbler
• Vegan-friendly

We’ll let Xero Shoes expert Randy Kreill tell you about the Genesis:

Xero Shoes' Warranty Policies

Xero Shoes' warranty policies cover all products purchased at regular retail price. 

Manufacturing Warranty

This is a one-time, one-for-one exchange that covers factory defects up to 24 months from your date of purchase such as:

• Sole separation
• Clarino yoke break
• Rubber tab breaks, etc.

It does not cover failures due to:

• normal wear and tear
• excessively rough or improper use
• Activities outside what the shoes were designed for (e.g., skateboarding)

5000-Mile Sole Warranty

This warranty gives you a chance to exchange an old pair of shoes or sandals for a new pair at 40% off the regular MSRP (full retail price), and is specifically:

• For soles worn down to less than 1mm thickness under the ball or heel of the shoe or sandal and not the sides and edges, and that meet the following conditions:
• Worn for less than 5,000 miles or approx., 8,046km (with proof) 
• Or within 1 year from the purchase date
• For one exchange with an original purchase of Xero Shoes footwear with FeelTrue® outsoles 

The warranty will be void if:

• Wear and tear is caused by activities outside what the shoes were designed for (e.g., skateboarding)

You can:

• Exchange the worn out pair for the same model only
• Select a different colour, however, this depends on its availability
• Request for a different size, as long as it’s for you and depending on availability, because feet size can change over time especially with frequent use of minimalist footwear
