Why you’ll love HFS II.

HFS II – A New Take On Our Most Popular Road Friendly Running Shoe.

An evolution of our best selling road running shoe, the HFS II is even more comfortable, and more stylish. While we call it a road runner, we know you’ll do much more in it and can’t wait to see the pics of where it takes you and what you do.

HFS II is a high performance road running shoe that’s so comfortable you’ll wear if for pretty much everything else you do.

LOVE THESE SHOES! Best shoes I have ever worn. I actually get excited about putting them on each day!

Feels like I'm not wearing a shoe!

Oh my gosh I was blown away!

Super grippy, very very nice!

Light, Grippier, and Comfier.

Like the original HFS, the HFS II is super lightweight (235 grams, M8) so you’ll feel like you’re flying down the road. And with a new tire tread-inspired outsole, you’ll feel secure even if you go off road.

HFS II is so comfy, you might forget to take them off at the end of your run – we’ve even had people go to bed still wearing their shoes because they forgot they had them on!

We Haven’t Sole-d Out 🙂

The HFS II sole looks thick, but it’s an illusion.
We’ve added a thin BareFoam™ layer for extra protection and wrapped it, cup-like, around the upper giving the HFS II a more familiar-looking profile.

HFS II for everything you do.

Made to Last.

Like all Xero Shoes, the HFS II has a 5,000 mile sole warranty to outlast typical running shoes that are supposed to be replaced after 200-500 miles.

Why "HFS"?

Why HFS? Well, it could be for the “Highly Flexible Sole” that lets your foot move naturally, or the face you’ll make when you put it on — “Happy Face Shoe” — or the way you run in it with a “High Frequency Stride”, or what you exclaim when you put it on and feel the comfort and light weight: “Holy ___ ___!” There are as many possible answers as there are things you’ll do in the HFS II.

Life Changing Comfort.

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 HFS 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!

Nicely made, true to size.

Previous shoe was a pair of running shoes “properly” fitted by a store. They pinched my toes to the point of pain. That is all gone with these, very happy.

Good, but not comparable to the original HFS (which was better)

The HFS2 is a good shoe, comfortable and works well on runs. I have two pairs. It is nothing like the original HFS, however. I have to pairs of those, too. I preferred the original as it was lighter and much more flexible. I've seem comments to the effect of "bring back the old HFS!" and I have to agree. While I have put in many 100s of kilometers in the originals, I don't find myself reaching for the HFS2s with the same enthusiasm. I took out the insoles of the HFS2s to try and make room and reduce the stiffness of the ride but it's not the same as the originals (for which I didn't have to do anything to them out of the box). While the HFS2s do have a good amount of flex, you notice the stiffness when running. The original HFS really got out of your way and were a pleasure to run in - it was almost like they weren't there. Stock of the old model is now gone in my size and the two pairs I have will not last forever. I would replace the original HFS pairs immediately if stock of the old model became available again, but I would think twice about replacing a pair of the HFS2s like-for-like. I think that sums up my feelings on the HFS2s. They're... fine. But the old ones were great.

Comfortable and look great.

In general, I love these shoes, comfortable and they look great for barefoot shoes. When walking after it’s been raining or over a metal grate, it’s a bit slippery. I feel that when the winter comes, I won’t be walking to work in them. Great for the gym and work though.
