“Human beings have been making footwear and wearing footwear for 99.9% of human history,” explains Steven Sashen, CEO of Xero Shoes. A long-time entrepreneur, Steven has never had a traditional job. After realizing he had a form problem after taking off his shoes, Steven made his own sandals, leading him to start his next venture, Xero Shoes.    For the past fifty years, the footwear industry has misled the public that there's something wrong with our feet. These businesses are selling false outcomes to their customer base by convincing people they need arch support and cushioning to keep their feet uninjured. Our feet's job is to gain a sense of the world around us, so natural movement footwear, like Xero shoes, is a more legitimate, performance-driven fit.   Although we're used to wearing traditional shoes, sometimes it's better to live life feet first. Learn more about the minimalist barefoot approach, the lies of the footwear industry, and Steven's entrepreneurial journey.   Quotes • “Human beings have been making footwear and wearing footwear for 99.9% of human history.” (4:28-4:34 | Steven) • “There's a value for just wearing our shoes for everything else you're doing.” (9:08-9:11 | Steven) • “There's no reason to have another shoe company in the world. There's enough of them unless your shoe changes people's lives.” (29:36-29:40 | Steven) • “People put on our shoes, and they have these life-changing experiences and don't want to go back.” (32:40-32:45 | Steven)  • “Why are you listening to these big footwear brands telling you to need to put your foot in a shoe that doesn't let it move or bend and flex and feel.” (43:45-43:53 | Steven)    Links   Connect with Steven Sashen: Website | https://xeroshoes.com/about-us/ Website | https://xeroshoes.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/xeroshoes/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/xeroshoes Connect with Physio Room:  Website | ​​https://physioroomco.com/  Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/physioroomco/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/physioroomco Andrew's Personal Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/dr.andrewfix/  Andrew's Personal Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/andrew.fix.9/   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

In episode 33 of the Outdoor Minimalist Podcast, we are talking about shoes. This episode was actually born from a listener question! I had someone message me and ask: “Can you do a post or an episode about shoes? Specifically tennis shoes for people who are on their feet a lot, like runners or nurses. I find that I want new shoes every 3-6 months as a nurse. Is that the normal lifetime for shoes? Can you tell me which materials are best and what might last longer or be better for the Earth?” This is a really hard topic honestly, and there isn't necessarily a cut-and-dry answer. Luckily, I had a chance to talk with Steven Sashen of Xero Shoes about his journey in the shoe industry and what he recommends we look for. If you remember, Steven joined me in one of my most popular episodes, “Greenwashing in the Outdoor Industry.” He had so many great insights and the listener response has been great, which is why I'm happy to welcome him back. For those that haven't listened to that episode, Steven Sashen is a serial entrepreneur who has never had a job, a former professional stand up comic and award-winning screenwriter, and a competitive sprinter -- one of the fastest men over 55 in the country (maybe the fastest 55+ Jew in the world!).

In episode 11 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we are going to hit a topic that I love to talk about but I hate that exists: greenwashing. Like many topics that I cover in my book, I feel confident I could do an episode on my own about this, but I'd rather hear from industry experts about greenwashing specifically in the outdoor industry, their experiences, how they avoid it, and their ideas moving forward. So, to help me dig deeper into this important topic, I am thrilled to share my conversation with Steven Sashen. Steven is a serial entrepreneur who has never had a job, a former professional stand-up comic and award-winning screenwriter, and a competitive sprinter -- one of the fastest men over 55 in the country (maybe the fastest 55+ Jew in the world!). He and his wife, Lena Phoenix, co-founded the footwear company Xero Shoes, creating "a MOVEMENT movement" which has helped hundreds of thousands of people Live Life Feet First with happy, healthy, strong feet in addictively comfortable footwear.
