Merrell

Vapor Glove 6 Running Shoe - Men's

Nice but don't last

They would have been the best shoes I have owned but their durability is simply horrible. I wore out the sole of my first pair in less than six month. And I've made the mistake of buying a another paire because the fit is so good and I wanted to believe that their were going to be better but the were not I also worn out the sole in less than five month. Not recommended

These shoes work great, the only critique I have is the toebox. It's pretty small, but otherwise, they are very effective in exposing you to natural surfaces without any kind of pain.

Lifting weights these are your shoes

Great shoes to workout with lifting weights. Comfortable and make sure you have proper footing for lifting heavy.

Superb Barefoot Shoes

I purchased three pairs (tan, black, grey) of these in rapid succession because they're so awesome. I've been wearing barefoot shoes, minimalist shoes, or sandals since high school- so these were a natural choice. Superb comfort IF you're used to barefoot shoes. There is no padding other than a thin layer of mesh on the upper. Vibram soles provide outstanding grip and feel. And the soles are super flexible and nearly weightless. Alongside my Vibram FiveFingers and Furoshiki's, these are THE best barefoot shoes on the market. My only two critiques: 1) The mens sizes, especially need more color options (orange, please?? 2) The 'leather' version of these are far inferior to the mesh version. The upper is stiff and don't stretch. Not criticisms, but know before purchasing: 1) If you're not accustomed to barefoot shoes, these will be horribly uncomfortable initially. Go slowly and your feet will eventually feel better than ever before. 2) They offer NO water or splash protection. If there's more than 1/2" of water on the ground, your feet will get wet. BUT... this is fantastic as workout shoes because they dry super fast and don't stink. 3) I wouldn't recommend these for hiking on uneven ground unless you're prepared. Every sharp point will go straight through the sole and you will feel it. Know what you're buying. If you're new to barefoot shoes, Merrell has better options for beginners. If you're looking for the best 'normal' looking barefoot shoes on the market, these are hard to beat.
