Xero Shoes Prio - Youth
What is the Xero Shoes Prio Youth suitable for?
A lightweight sports sneaker for active children in everyday life, at school, and playing outdoors — from the climbing frame to the school run to the playground in the woods. Weighing only approx. 179 g per shoe in size 34, it's barely noticeable while playing.
Freedom of movement for growing feet: The foot-shaped, wide toe box allows toes to spread, and the flexible sole follows every movement. This allows little feet to bend, flex, and feel the ground — a zero-drop children's barefoot shoe, just as desired for natural movement.
Secure hold through lacing and adjustable straps: Adjustable straps on the instep and heel are tightened via classic lacing — allowing the shoe to adapt to the individual foot. Reflective details on the heel and instep increase visibility in twilight.
Vegan and breathable: Mesh upper with synthetic overlays, completely free of animal materials. The abrasion-resistant outsole stands up to daily play.
What it is not: The Prio Youth is designed as a sports and everyday shoe, not as a waterproof hiking boot. The mesh upper dries quickly but lets water through.
In the package: 1 pair of Xero Shoes Prio Youth, packed in our plastic-free packaging.
Size Chart Xero Shoes Prio Youth
Measure your child's foot while standing from heel to longest toe and choose the row in which the foot length falls.
| EU Size | Foot length (cm) | Insole (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| 30 | 16.8–17.3 | 18.5 |
| 31 | 17.4–18.2 | 19.4 |
| 32 | 18.3–19.1 | 20.3 |
| 33 | 19.2–19.7 | 20.9 |
| 34 | 19.8–20.8 | 22.0 |
| 36 | 20.9–21.5 | 22.7 |
At least 12 mm of space for walking and foot growth is already included in the foot length. Size 35 is not available at Xero Shoes – size 36 follows directly after 34.
If the foot length is at the very bottom of the range, the shoe will fit a little long at first – then tighten the Velcro or laces well so that the heel stays firmly in place. Measure regularly: When the foot is only 10 mm shorter than the insole, the next pair is due.
