MerrellMen's Vapor Glove 3 Luna LTR Sneaker

Been wearing it like everyday since I bought it some eight months ago. No sign of depreciation so far. The soul is sturdy. It is lightweight yet appropriately well cushioned.

These are great for school shoes for my son and daughter, my daughter had very narrow feet and these fit perfectly, my son is slightly wider in the foot and they are a bit tight to start but eventually stretch out. They're very comfortable with being flat and thin soled with a wide toe box and they look smart for school.

The Canvas Ones are More Comfortable than these...there tends tobe a build of pressure over the EXTENSOR DIGITORIUM (had to google that) of the foot that the canvas version do not have...these would offer more impact protection (relatively) but canvas for me...have 2 pairs canvas...These do look great in blue.I think this shoe concept was borrowed from kung-fu shoes as back in the day I wore £10 kung-fu shoes outside, and it was much the same road feel as these...There is someting about these shoes that gets the mind going while walking...you feel totally connected to the earth with the simple removal of the midsole.I see why I loved a certain pair of hi-tec hiking boots as they were much the same..that magnetic connection to terra firma with footfall.Overpriced if you factor in made in Vietnam..in all likelyhood £5 to make - but priceless in how they work your legs and mind...haha ! So yes, they have a bit of a monopoloy with this shoe model.Has anyone noticed how shoe sellers now vary the price between sizes..ridiculous !...it's the latest scam that should not be allowed...flat price over all sizes as it was in the past....So back these leather ones went, and I now am happy with 2 sets of the canvas model Merrell barefoot shoes....far more flexible on top of the foot.Vapor Glove 3 = ROCK !

I've trained barefoot for over a decade and wanted a versatile barefoot shoe for work when it's too hot for boots. The fit is nice and wide and the sole is very grippy without sacrificing feel.I liked them so much I bought a pair of vapor glove 4s for the gym.My only complaint is that the toe box (where the sole comes up over the toes) feels slightly too large for workouts.The leather is lovely and soft yet robust enough to take an impromptu run or hike when required.

good barefoot shoe, lightweight flexible wide toe box good for running or walks. so far could not fault them. good value buy so far

I neartly bought a second pair until I caught the sole detaching so I fixed that with superglue. Then, after a few months use (I have far too many shoes already) the sole seems to be wearing fast. I don't expect to get a long life or achieve any value for money from them.

I've had Merrell Trail Gloves and Vapour Gloves for years. My feet groan whenever I put on any non-barefoot style shoes which I occasionally have to. So when I got these I was overjoyed because I can now wear barefoot style shoes when I want to be a bit smarter than just wearing regular trainers. These are the same fit and shape as regular Vapour Gloves so the good news is you can just buy your normal size. These fit me great and they look superb. However one of the shoes makes a funny snapping sound as the leather flexes. I'm hoping this will get better as the leather ages and softens. But my main problem is that left and right shoes are not quite the same, which I am annoyed about... almost enough to send them back. The rubber bumper on the front which wraps over the top does not come quite as far back on the left shoe and my big toenail just falls short of it. So the shoes feel different to one another when walking. So not 100% happy. Hence 3 stars.Edit: The snapping sound did disappear as the shoes aged and the left and right now at least feel the same and I am so glad I kept then. I originally got navy blue but I also got a pair of dusty olive. The leather on the dusty olive seemed a bit softer and there was no wearing in required. Also, no discernable difference between left and right, so better in that respect also.I intend to buy more of these shoes before they go out of production. A lot of people say that the Vapour Glove 3 are one of the best barefoot shoes Merrell have ever made and only the durability of the uppers let them down. So, the luna (leather upper) version fixes that. OK, they're not as breathable as a mesh upper, but for everyday use and running on cooler days they are amazing.

A useful addition to my training footwear. I am gradually stretching and strengthening my calf muscles. Excellent for developing balance. But it is a gradual process.

Awesome minimalist shoes! Look great and feel great. Got many compliments.

Very good shoes and seller. Just take a little mores maller you take usually if you need it. A take 8 us women. With this one, need 7us. Very good seller. No problem. Thanks a lot

Disappointed in these. They feel like cheap rubber rainboots but in a shoe form - the so called 'leather upper' is a very thin leather lining attached to a mesh or felt upper. It feels awful all around. The shape of the shoe is great, and is true to barefoot styling, but the shoe itself is not comfortable or enjoyable to wear. Putting it on with socks, the socks almost 'stick' to the liner and requires quite a bit of adjustment to get them on properly. You also won't be able to keep these tied and slip them on because of this.Have enjoyed other Merrell barefoot/minimalist shoes, but these were a bad buy, especially when there are better options from other companies (lems/vivo/etc) available.

Very comfortable and discrete for barefoot shoes. Only downside is they get use marks/dirty rather quickly.

Hervorragende Qualität aber es fehlen Weiten .
