Community feedback
“Tightening ankle strap and loosening toe strap for comfort, sizing could be an issue, Z-Trek toe box not wide enough for natural toe-splaying for really wide feet, Z-Trail loved by some users, Xeros not super wide but some wide versions available, Xero customer service is good, Z-Trail preferred over Z-Trek, Xero Genesis preferred for everyday wear.”
