Product Description

“I hated the way hiking boots looked and felt… until I found these. My feet stay protected, and I LOVE the style.” Jess K.

RIDGEWAY – Look Good On and Off the Trail

Combine the allure of retro style with cutting-edge barefoot-friendly technology, and you get the Ridgeway – a hiking boot with a rugged canvas upper with suede accents. It’s ready to conquer technical trails with friends and comfortable enough to enjoy a beer afterward.

RWHW-NGBU_Ridgeway_Insignia-Blue_Cerebral_02125.jpg

Your Wet Weather Companion

The Ridgeway is not just stylish and comfortable; it’s also waterproof, with a fully seam-sealed inner bootie, gusseted tongue, and waterproof membrane.

A “Midsole Illusion”

It might look like the Ridgeway has a thick midsole. Actually, we took our embedded TrailFoam layer (that evens out the bumps) and wrapped it around the upper giving the illusion of thickness. You’ll still enjoy the flexibility and natural movement you expect from Xero Shoes.

Grippy and Lightweight

Confidently navigate the terrain with an aggressive trail-ready lugged outsole.

At just 326 grams (W37.5), the Ridgeway is lighter than most technical boots, but even lighter than many running shoes.

Embrace brisk mountain mornings, wet trails, or cozy evenings by the fire with the confidence that your Ridgeway boots have your back.

WE MAKE HIKING SHOES SO COMFORTABLE, YOU’LL FORGET THEY’RE EVEN ON.

If your feet don’t feel as good at the end of the day as they did in the beginning, you haven’t tried the Ridgeway.

Life-changing comfort and superior performance come from letting your feet do what’s natural – bend, move, flex and feel.

All Xero Shoes feature a wider, foot-shaped toe box that lets your toes spread and relax, a non-elevated “zero drop” heel for proper posture, low-to-the-ground design for perfect balance and agility, and a flexible sole that gives you “just right” protection so you can bend, move, flex, and Live Life Feet First!

Loved them at first but they hurt my ankle

I really liked these boots for the first few months that I wore them – I mostly used them to ride my bike to work in the rain over the winter, and then walked around in them in the office during the day. I really like that they keep my feet warm and dry in the rainy winter months in Germany, and I like the look of them. Then I took them to a holiday in Copenhagen, where I walked a ton in them for (I only realised later) the first time. Three days into my holiday my left ankle began to hurt very badly. I ignored it at first (my mistake!) but on the fourth day I really couldn't wear the boots anymore. My achilles tendon had become so tender that anytime I slipped my left foot in to the boot, my ankle hurt to the extent that I couldn't bear taking a step. Unfortunately I had no other shoes with me so I was hotel-ridden for the rest of my holiday. I think the top of the boot basically just hits my ankle every time I take a step, and for whatever reason that really bothers my left ankle. It took about 6 weeks of wearing sneakers for my ankle to heal enough to wear the boots casually again. So in my opinion the ankle is too high to be a good walking boot.

Top wide

Love the look of the shoe but they are no good for Walking for me. They are really wide mid shoe and front and that makes that no matter what they are a big floppy and our foot moves. Result soreness and blisters under the sole of my foot

Comfortable, waterproof, good grip & lightweight

I bought these boots for when I go hiking up in the mountains in winter in Southern Spain. The boots are comfortable, warm, waterproof & very light. I like the wide toe box & that the soles have good grip on the terrain but are very flexible & so I can still feel the ground. They get a lot if comments on how great they look.
