|---|
| | | Running is both a competition and a type of training for sports that have running or endurance components. As a sport, it is split into events divided by distance and sometimes includes permutations such as the obstacles in steeplechase and hurdles. Running races are contests to determine which of the competitors is able to run a certain distance in the shortest time. Today, competitive running events make up the core of the sport of athletics. Events are usually grouped into several classes, each requiring substantially different athletic strengths and involving different tactics, training methods, and types of competitors. |

Merrell Trail Glove
Barefoot bliss
March 14, 2013
Reviewer: Zack from North Idaho
These shoes are awesome if you want to strengthen your feet for trail running. I like to use them because I like making my body stronger in every way possible. Do be careful if you have never really run barefoot. You need to work up to regular running in these shoes if you are used to using tennis shoes. The intricate muscles of your foot are worked much more by this style of running, but if you want a challenge, or just like to strengthen your body every way possible, these are for you.

Merrell Vapor Glove
Best shoes I've had!
March 08, 2013
Reviewer: Victor N from Bergen, Norway
I feel the vapor gloves are an improvement to the Vibram FiveFingers Speed, because they have the same fantastic ground feel, but without the toe pockets. The sole is very flexible, but still have enough protection when you step on small rocks and pebbles. And they're so light and quiet, I often don't make a sound as my foot lands on the ground. I ordered the shoes a size down after hearing from others they're a bit big, and I'm glad I did. Size 8.5 is a perfect fit, although I usually wear size 9. I've read about other Merrell models, that they can be a bit narrow, but that was not a problem for me with this shoe. These are the most comfortable shoes I've ran in so far, and I plan on buying another pair very soon as a backup pair.

Merrell Bare Access 2
mens merrell bare access 2

Reviewer: toad from hawaii
being interested the barefoot scene i thought this shoe would be perfect since it has more cushioning and arch support than a typical barefoot shoe. i am glad i bought these since i am still getting used to them, you really feel the ground. had i gone straight to a true barefoot shoe it would have been more uncomfortable for me. construction, comfort and styling are tops. fyi, my running shoes are usually a 1/2 size bigger but these run the same sizing as my dress shoes.

Merrell Flux Glove
Love the Flux Glove line from Merrell
December 05, 2012
Reviewer: Executive, hiker, rock climbing and walking. from Smokey Mountains
I love the feel of freedom combined with the ability to contour to ground conditions while strengthening my feet. Feels like a glove and is durable. Leather is good quality. All of the glove type shoes from Merrell run a half to a full size large except for the Road Glove which runs closer to normal sizing. Don't purchase these too large or your foot will move around too much. They are meant to fit like a glove.Once you switch to this type of shoe, I doubt you will want to wear anything else on your feet. I wear a pair everyday.
