Merrell Vapor Glove 6

As no-nonsense barefoot shoes should, the Vapor Gloves lack support or torsional rigidity, on purpose: they enable your feet to start getting stronger, bringing your stride to a more natural direction. Their Merrell Barefoot 2 structure helps keep your feet in a natural position.

Choose half a size number larger than usual - these shoes are relatively snug.

• Total stack 6 mm
• Lug depth 2 mm
• Heel to toe drop 0 mm
• Surface material, liner, laces and webbing are all made of recycled fibers
• Integrated EVA insole
• Cleansport NXT anti-odour treatment
• Vibram Ecostep recycle outer sole contains 30% recycled rubber

It’s wise to ease into barefoot exercise. This allows your muscles and tendons to recover from this new challenge.
