Merrell Men's Vapor Glove 5 Sneaker

Great for a more natural barefoot feel
Not a good shoe to start with as minimalist footwear and there is a transition period, so don’t expect immediate comfort. But overall a great minimalist barefoot shoe. Well constructed, wide toe box!

Great natural fit
This my third paid of Merrell barefoot shoes. For the price you get a quality product that is a true barefoot shoe. I have a narrow foot so these vapor glove shoes fit me perfectly. I’ve tried other brands that are too wide for me.

Excellent barefoot shoe.
I was initially drawn to this - my first barefoot shoe - due to the price (significantly better value then comparable shoes) and it's design.I primarily use this shoe for gym workouts and have kept my Hokas for running. The shoe is excellent for this purpose - it is comfortable, light and enables me to maximise leg workouts through developing stability and balance.The shoe feels hardwearing, is thoughtfully designed and looks good.I have recommended this shoes to a number of friends.

Comfy but too baggy across the toe
These are some of my favorite bf shoes. They are really comfy, with lots of ground feel and easy to slip on and off. But the laces above the toe area aren’t designed well. When cinched up it creates a baggy area on top of your foot. Mostly cosmetic but would look nicer if they didn’t bunch up on top. Its like they are designed for a very tall thick foot, which I don’t have.

Exactly What I Was Looking For
I thought Merrell quit making these for a while, so I bought some knockoffs on here a couple years ago and hated them. I was searching for new shoes the other day and noticed that these were, in fact, still around so I bought them immediately. Gotten through a few workouts in them so far and they were exactly what I was hoping for. Great zero drop minimalist shoe. These are the only shoes I've ever had that I like as much as the original New Balance Minimus Trail (which is no longer made) - so if you are looking for something similar, this is it.

Almost feels like no shoes at all. Would recommend 10/10
I bought these at an amazing cheap price here (around 60 bucks) and they took some time to get here. I've had them for two days. These are my second pair of barefoot shoes; the first ones were from another name-brand and I love them as well, so I can compare.The soles are definitely softer, which I hope won't mean a quick wear-out, but they are easy to walk and no breaking in period. The soles squeak a bit when running over marble or other shiny floors, but this would clear out I guess in a few days.They are easy to put on and off, fit as needed.

I daily these shoes and wear them for everything
They’re awesome for me. Fits perfect, does the barefoot job, I wear them as walking shoes, casual shoes, gym shoes, running shoes, and martial arts shoes. No signs of wear and it’s been literally hard core use since September of 2023

Comfortable, well-fitting, quality running shoe. Worn as a daily walker.
Just found out about this type of shoe recently, and was excited to try them, as I've always preferred walking barefoot when possible. These shoes are about half the price (~$47usd at time of purchase) of other similar brands, and I was pleased with the quality for that price. Of course, being a thinner shoe, this would naturally reduce the manufacturing cost, however, it's clear that Merrell doesn't cut corners with the product they deliver. I've been wearing the shoes for about 2 weeks off and on, and they are holding up well so far. I will update my review at about the 6 month mark.

Experiencia descalza inigualable.
Estos son zapatos descalzos reales, no he encontrado otros más flexibles y que se adapten así al pie, mala idea ir de hike con ellos las piedras lastiman pero para la ciudad y el estar en casa, no he encontrado nada más cómodo, lastima de la diferencia tan radical de precio entre colores, definitivamente los volveré a comprar

Go up half a size from your normal shoe size!
This show is exactly what I was looking for. At first I ordered a size 11 which is my normal shoe size and it was too snug. I ordered an 11.5 after and it’s a great fit, couldn’t have asked for a better barefoot shoe.

Great quality for a solid price
These were my first pair of barefoot shoes or wtvr theyre called and I'm very satisfied. Ive noticed a lot of barefoot shoes end up looking goofy and a lot of them have weird colors so this was like the perfect option for me. I wear them whenever I'm walking in the woods mostly but they can be easily used on pavement too, for walking at least. Our feet havent evolved to accommodate for the crazy amount of cushioning we tend to have in our shoes nowadays, I feel like it contributes to knee problems and stuff so I've been wearing these instead. these were absolutely worth it and they've been great for a change. I liked these vapor gloves so much I bought more on sale on a different website. I definitely recommend. If anyone is seeing this review, I hope you found it helpful 😎

Prodotto evidentemente già usato
Appena aperta la scatola ho notato piccoli segni di usura sulle scarpe. Voltato la scarpa la suola era evidentemente usata (pietroline incastrate). Neanche il tentativo di spacciarle per nuove. Considerato anche il prezzo, non proprio un'occasione, mi sembra veramente poco corretto. Delusione

Great design that works.
This is my 3rd pair of Merrell Glove in 5 years. One of the best 'barefoot' foot wear that has helped me in eliminating pain and inflammation in cross country running.
