Steven and Lena are entrepreneurs from Boulder, Colorado who founded a company names Xero Shoes. In February of 2013 the two presented their business idea to Shark Tank investors in order to find additional financing. They had a $400,000 investment from Kevin O'Leary but ended up turning it down. The exposure they got from the show has helped them out tremendously and business is now booming.
