The Ridgeway from Xero Shoes is the first waterproof barefoot hiking shoe in our range. It is a spacious mid-cut boot with classic barefoot shoe attributes and a grippy sole, designed to accompany you on light to moderate hikes while keeping your feet dry and protected thanks to the integrated membrane. Weighing in at 737 grams, the Ridgeway is quite light for such a shoe. At first glance, one might assume the shoe has a thicker sole, but Xero Shoes has simply wrapped the TrailFoam layer, which serves to absorb unevenness, higher around the shoe. Voilà, illusion and function! Additionally, the contrasting suede-textile combination exudes stylish retro vibes, and we can definitely envision the Ridgeway as a winter shoe for urban everyday life.
