Merrell trail glove 3 review.

The merrell vapor glove 3 is a minimalist trail specific shoe for runners who are interested in barefoot style running. These were everything i was looking for barefoot feel super light weight aggressive enough outsole for hiking. Mine lasted just over a year before the sides tore. Merrell made a wonderful barefoot trail show when they made the trail glove.

Even running over wet surfaces is safe in the trail glove 3. This shoebwas much less durable. Supportive low profile lightweight and grippy this shoe boasts a list of attributes we seek out in responsive trail runners. Merrell though has found a way around this.

While not the same beloved barefoot runner it was in past models the merrell trail glove 5 proves its merit as a minimalist trail running shoe. I have recommended this as their top choice because of its flexibility minimal interference resistance and durability. On the road an ultralight mesh upper keeps your feet cool and short sticky lugs. There is no pretending here this shoe is a true minimalist option.

It s not as light as the mizuno wave universe but it s a little more comfortable and lasts a lot longer the fourth version has larger changes than the earlier merrell trail glove 3 which was only a cosmetic change if you re looking for a shoe that minimalist but offers more protection and a little more cushioning than a true barefoot. The merrell vapor glove 4 our editors choice winner is a minimalist trainer delivered in a package with superior ground feel and barefoot accuracy on roads and trails. Merrell trail glove 4 also provides motion control and tends to be low in weight and stack height making it ideal for daily use and running. Then they decided to make some improvements and make the trail glove 2.

With no midsole cushioning and a short stack height the vapor glove puts your foot right against the ground for maximum responsiveness. I had mine for almost 3 years.
