Merrell Vapor Glove 7 Ltr Trainers - Brown - UK 10.5

Merrell Barefoot 2 construction is designed to support natural foot movement and stability, allowing for a more connected and grounded feel during activities. It mimics the natural mechanics of the foot.

The Vapor Glove 7 Ltr are minimalist shoes with less cushioning. While some runners prefer this for ground feel, they are best suited for shorter distances or for those accustomed to barefoot or minimalist running styles. An adjustment period is recommended.

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Merrell. Ensure there is a little room at the toe, but the heel should be snug. The natural foot positioning design means the shoe should feel like an extension of your foot.

The Vibram TC5+ outsole provides good traction, but like any footwear, extreme wet conditions may reduce grip. The materials are not waterproof, so your feet may get wet in deep water or heavy rain.

The Vibram TC5+ outsole is exclusively formulated for Merrell and offers a balance of grip, durability, and flexibility, making it suitable for a wide range of outdoor multi-sport activities on various terrains.

The use of 100% recycled laces and 30% recycled EVA foam insole contributes to sustainability by reducing waste and the environmental impact of manufacturing.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the minimalist design. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug but not constricting fit.

While the Vibram TC5+ offers excellent traction, wet, slick surfaces can reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris, and exercise caution.

This can sometimes occur with a minimalist shoe due to natural gait variations. Check that your stride is balanced. If wear is excessive and premature, contact customer support.
