What NBA and WNBA players have to say about the X1

The Shoe That’s Changing the Rules of the Game

Fly Down the Court

Heavy shoes can feel like a drag on your feet… and your game. At just 9.9 oz per size 7 women’s shoe, the X1 Low lets you have more energy for your sprints, cuts, and jumps. Feel faster and more explosive as you fly down the court.

Made for Women’s Feet

A woman’s foot isn’t the same as a man’s. That’s why we used data from thousands of 3D foot scans to create a women’s-specific last and outsole for a shoe that matches the anatomy of a woman’s foot. The X1 Low lets your feet move naturally, so you can enjoy your full range of motion.

Reaching a new personal best isn’t about working harder, it’s about moving better. The X1 keeps you close to the court so you can dominate with precision and explosive power.

Dig Deeper

Stay Cool

Featuring a moisture-wicking and abrasion-resistant liner, the X1 Low keeps your feet cool and comfortable even when things heat up on the court.

Made to Last

You work and play hard. You can count on the X1 Low to work as hard as you do. It’s backed by our 5000-mile sole warranty – that’s a lot of runs up and down the court!

Free Your Feet

Peak performance comes from letting your feet do what’s natural – bend, move, flex, and feel. Feel what you’ve been missing when you try a basketball shoe designed for how feet move, naturally.

FAQs

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.

Favorite Xero Shoe

When I switched to barefoot shoes, the most depressing part was esentially abandoning my basketball shoe collection. In terms of style, I tended to wear baskebtall shoes about 75% of the time. Jumped at the chance to buy these right away (think I got them on day 1) and I'll probably get more pairs. Since switching to Xero shoes my recurring knee pain has gone away but now I get to be more stylish again.

Love these!

I feel more stable and more agile. My ground contact is better balanced. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the traditional bball brands.

X1 is a Performance Shoe

For everyday, I love my Xero 360s. But for Tennis I needed something more. The X1 fits the bill. It has the same great roomy toe box and ground feel, but offers greater stability/stiffness from the ball of the foot back. It also offers more cushioning - a slight memory foam feel - but maintains the zero drop. For sizing, I tried the 7.5 and 8.0 and went with the 7.5 even though my Xero 360s are perfect at size 8.0. If I were to change anything, I would prefer a cut out tongue by the ankle, but still love the shoe for tennis.

New favorite basketball shoe!!

I bought these shoes for my son. He loves them! He has special needs and would often trip in regular basketball shoes because they’ll heavy and he couldn’t feel the ground. So far, he hasn’t tripped at all and has been able to play longer. I’m ready to get a pair for myself!!
