My Favorite Shoe
I bought these shoes initially for training outdoors. It’s been about 5 or 6 years now and I still wear them. Since then, I’ve bought two more pairs. They’ve become my favorite shoe. I normally wear 6.5 wide. I got these in 6.5 regular. They are a little bit narrow for my feet, but they do stretch out a little over a good amount of time.

Great Comfort
I heard a Dr. of Podiatry speak about the thick spongy soled shoes not being good for our feet, balance etc When I saw these ‘Trail Gloves’ I was immediately excited and put them on my wishlist.

Trail Gloves
Shoes are very comfortable, I liked my first pair so much I bought another. I have noticed the sole wears out faster than any other pair of Merrill’s I have had and I have a lot.

Excellent As Always
These run small compared to the previous generation I own by a full size, but once that was taken care of, the shoes are sensational. Absolutely no complaints. Excellent grip. Excellent protection from hazards while running without the added weight and bulk of a standard running shoe. Highly recommend.

Love These Shoes
They are so good for my hip and legs, I have even played pickleball in them and can comfortably spread my toes for grip and comfort. Love these shoes!

Reluctant To Try The Barefoot Shoe
Before this purchase, I had not tried a barefoot shoe. I was hesitant but now I'm glad I tried the shoes. They are comfortable, stylish, and true to size.

If Only…
Love the yellow! Also love the ease of walking my 2-mile a day goal. However, although I have worn size 9 forever, these shoes are about 1/4 inch too short! The only way to keep the comfort of these shoes is to wear very thin socks.

Comfortable !!
I tried these because they were on sale and was pleasantly surprised. They are the only shoe I can use to walk hikes and do Zumba with my foot issues. Last 2 group hikes someone was wearing a pair. They are well ventilated, but not so great on muddy ground because of that. I will buy more and wear these daily

Worst Quality Ever
I've been a longstanding Merrell customer and had 4 trial gloves so far and these are the absolute worst. First, the sizing was off. They were smaller and somehow wider and hence much less comfortable than previous ones. But the absolute worst thing about them is the quality. The sole wore off within a couple of months and the fabric and threads started ripping within half a year of use or so. Older models lasted years. In fact, I still have a pair that I bought in 2018. It looks used and discolored but I can still wear it. To me, it's completely absurd. All this focus on sustainability and recycled fabric and then you create a product that lands in the bin after a little more than half a year. To me that's just green washing and dishonest business practice. Deeply disappointed and will look for another brand.

Semi-barefoot
I would call these semi-barefoot. They are still narrow and have arch support. But overall I like the feel and the look!

My Favorite Shoes Ever
These are the lightest, most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. They have great, grippy soles, too. I’ve worn them on several mixed-terrain walks now; they have excellent arch support and a wide, comfortable toe box. I can’t say enough good things about them.

Still Love Them
They are not quite as comfortable as I remember them being previously, but I still really like them. :)

Mountain Hiking
I have been wearing xero drop shoes for about 5 years now. I used to only wear hiking boots, but a bad time with plantar fasciitis led me to an ex-surgeon who showed me how to walk differently, and how wearing heals caused my fascia to collapse. I have over 1200 miles on the Appalachian Trail, about half of them with Xero drop shoes. My last two pair of hiking shoes have been Merrell Trail Glove 7's and I love them.

Tall Girls Size 12
Awesome grip!! I would definitely recommend a size up or even consider getting a men’s size if you prefer or have a slightly wider foot, especially for us tall girlies!!!
