Xero Trail Running Shoes - Mesa Trail II (Men)

Qty:

Meet the Mesa Trail II — the lightweight trail runner that grips and lets you feel every step.

Chunky trail shoes keep you stable by holding your feet stiff and high off the ground. The Mesa Trail II takes the barefoot approach: a flexible, zero-drop sole that lets your feet react to roots and rocks, with 3.5mm lugs for grip on loose and slippery tracks.

A 3.5mm layer of TrailFoam™ evens out sharp stones without losing that connection to the trail. Adjustable straps at the midfoot and heel lock your foot in place on descents, and a tough toe cap and welded sidewalls add protection where trails bite. At just 181g each (women's 7), it barely feels like you're wearing a trail shoe at all.

New to barefoot shoes?

Start with short, easy trails and build up — your feet and ankles will get stronger fast. Already converted? This is the trail shoe for runs, fast hikes and tramping where you want grip without bulk.

FIT GUIDE ▼

The Mesa Trail II runs true to size. They have a roomy toe box but a snug midfoot, so they're on the narrow side and not suitable for wide or extra wide feet. Select the size that has an insole length 0.7–1.2cm longer than your actual foot length. Go half a size up if you'll wear thicker socks with these shoes. Men with narrow feet may prefer women's sizing. See the Mesa Trail II (Women) listing for women's sizes.
