Review on Enhance Your Running Experience with Xero Shoes Women's Speed Force Minimalist Running Shoe - Unmatched Lightweight Comfort by Mario Beckwith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice shoes, strange sole, size 1-1.5 is more fitting.

Attractive shoes! The size is a disaster. I received a size larger than usual but I think I need to add another half size. I won't try to replace them because I felt the sole encourages pronation when walking in the shoes. Not good. The lateral edge of the sole is felt to be thicker than the medial due to the traction knuckles. I think the sole needs to be more consistent for this whole sandal to work. Update - I went up a size and the instability issue got a little better, but I have found that the toe of the shoe is too sharp and putting pressure on my feet. Thumbs in valgus. I also tried the Xero Mesa Trail and the toe box is much wider and the profile keeps the big toe straight. The outsole is also much more stable, but looks chunkier. So for me there is still no speed power.

Pros
  • Road running
Cons
  • Only available in black
