Updated, waterproof barefoot shoes for women, especially for trail use.
The new Trail Glove boasts a cuff that helps keep water and debris out. The entire shoe is also a touch more massive than before, however this is still clearly a barefoot model. Those with strong feet and legs can go for trail running adventures wearing the Trail Glove 7, and the rest of us can use them in daytrip use after getting used to the low level of support and cushion.
This model is not suitable for people with wide feet, and require high ankle mobility. The cuff is snug, to say the least, up to the point where some people can’t even get their feet in. The shoe requires a bit more than average from your ankle’s mobility.
