Merrell Vapor Glove 6 review: The sixth edition of Merrell
Merrell Vapor Glove 6 review: The sixth edition of Merrell's Vapor Glove returns, now offering enhanced comfort to complement the barefoot experience. Although originally designed for easy trails, we were thrilled to find this minimalist runner just as exceptional on the road and in the gym. Despite its $90 price tag, which might suggest a basic level, the shoe's comfort, grip, and performance were outstanding in our lab. However, we noticed the outsole could wear down quickly, and the fit may be too spacious for those with narrow feet. Based on our tests, the Vapor Glove 6 stands out as an authentic zero-drop option, offering great value for its price.

Merrell's leadership in the barefoot category continues with the Trail Glove 7. Key updates include more natural foot positioning for a true minimalist feel, a Vibram EcoStep outsole that wraps the foot to maximize grip and connection, and a minimal midsole made of FloatPro Foam, their best midsole foam. Within the midsole, Merrell also integrated their FLEXconnect dual-directional flex-grooves for enhanced ground connection. Total stack height on these shoes is 14mm.
