Why you’ll love MESA TRAIL II

Mesa Trail II – Your Lightweight and Breathable Trail Runner...Now Updated

Tens of thousands of Xero Shoes customers loved the Mesa Trail’s combination of lightweight comfort and trail-gripping security.

The Mesa Trail II improves on that with more rugged, durable, and protective welded components on the upper, a breathable mesh, and a moisture-wicking lining that’s ready for wherever you take it.

The Mesa Trail II is even better than the original! It feels grippier on different trail surfaces, and is one of the lightest trail runners out there.

Super, super flexible

It has so much grip

Really breathable

It's been really healing

The sole is even better

Lightweight Comfort

You’ll love hitting the trails with this “just right” balance of lightweight comfort and trail-gripping security. The Mesa Trail II is even lighter than the original.

The adjustable midfoot and instep straps hug this trail runner snugly to your foot. The thin, durable toe cap and tough sidewall welding work hard to give you added protection.

Trail-Gripping

Our patented FeelTrue™ sole features 3.5mm lugs for optimal traction. Enjoy how our 3.5mm TrailFoam™ layer evens out the bumps during your trail run.

Mesa Trail II for everything you do.

Lightweight.

Mesa Trail II is light weight -- so light, in fact, you could forget you have them on. A men's 8 is about 221 g (each).

Made to Last.

Like all Xero Shoes, the Mesa Trail II has a 5,000 mile sole warranty to outlast typical trail running shoes that are supposed to be replaced after 350-500 miles.

Life Changing Comfort.

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 Mesa Trail II. 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!

My Third Pair...

These are my third pair of Mesa Trails (one OG pair and a previous pair of Trail IIs). I love them, I got this pair straight out of the box, put them on and went for a 22 mile training run, my feet are absolutely fine. The previous pair of Trail IIs went on Leg 5 supporting a BGR as a first run - feet pristine at the end. The very first pair I got out of the box and went on a 36 mile trail race - my feet were also fine then. I wore my previous pair of these into the ground (literally, they had zero tread left on the soles). The newer slightly longer softer laces are now just the right length to tie a double knot without loads of floppy lace left over and they have just enough stretch for comfort while maintaining the shoe in position on your foot. As a lady even with quite narrow feet, I use the mens' shoes for that lovely roomy toebox and have never had any rubbing, toe-end blisters or nail issues while using these shoes. I have quite shallow feet, so they do tend to get holes at the sides where they crease over my toes, but only after a few hundred miles, which I think is fair. The only way to make them better is if I could still get my hands on a red pair in the UK.

Very narrow toebox

Bought these after reading and watching the videos about how the toebox was toe shaped so toes aren't squashed in. Unfortunately these shoes have the narrowest toe box of any shoes I've ever bought, despite going up half a size on my usual size and they are very uncomfortable. If I had narrower feet I'd be very happy with them.

Not as durable for being heavy footed.

Great as far as helping foot pain from low arches and plantar fasciitis but just not durable enough for myself.

Men's Mesa Trail II -needed to size up

Looking forward to trying these shoes out but wanted to share my sizing experience in case it helped others. Initially assumed 'true to size' (size UK9/43) but seemed small. Comparing insoles with my Vivobarefoot trail shoes confirmed this. Just received the 9.5/43.5 and these fit OK. Again, comparing insoles with the Vivo UK9/43 confirmed the Xero Mesa UK9.5/43.5 to be identical. So, from my experience, would recommend going up a UK half size to get your normal fit. I have high expectations of these shoes and shall update my review in due course.

Love the shoes and the service!

The shoes are great- comfortable and great on difficult terrain with a heavy pack if you like trekking - I wore them trekking in Iceland for a week with a 20kg pack and didn't get a single blister or hotspot. When I later got a problem with the sole delaminating they were very helpful with resolving the issue so the customer service is great too!
