The Terraflex II has a similar look to the original terraflex, but with upgraded features. Before I share those with you, a big shout out to Xero Shoes for sending me a complimentary pair of the Terraflex II to test and review.

If you’re looking for awesome barefoot trail running shoes or hiking shoes then read on!

My second Terraflex review!

Like the original Terraflex, the Terraflex II is a barefoot trail shoe designed for running or hiking. I love these shoes and reviewed the original model a few years ago.

I even use them for everyday activities because they’re just so comfortable. My old ones are pretty worn out but very much warranted after three years of regular use.

One thing to note is that although my old ones look a bit scruffy they still have excellent grip underfoot.

So I’m excited to have a shiny new pair and share the specs with you!

Terraflex II barefoot hiking shoes features and specs

Like the original Terraflex, the Terraflex II are vegan barefoot shoes that are perfect for going off-road. They have all the usual barefoot features, including flexibility, a thin sole, a wide toe box, and zero drop.

But now, they’re built for added durability. Here are the key differences with the Terraflex II.

  • You’ve now got Xero Shoe’s Real Tuff Tec material on the toe foxing, which is more durable than the previous material.
  • There is welded material for the mudguard instead of the PU foxing. This makes the Terraflex II more water-resistant and less prone to cracking from hydrolysis.
  • The upper mesh is also more durable, which is useful for me with my big toe, which sometimes tries to push through.
  • And finally, there’s a newly upgraded performance sock liner for the insole.
