great fit, need neutral colors for women as well.
love the function, good balance for taichi. However why do womens’ shoes always have to come in ugky pastel colors? live the mens green even the beige. No bias at all. Please remember not all women want pink!

Good shoe
Bought this model after already owning a pair of glove 7s and I can definitely see why they made some changes but if you can snag a pair of these 6s on sale they’re totally worth it.

Zero drop foor heaven
I LOVE these shoes. I’ve worn other barefoot shoes, none have really felt barefoot to me. I feel like a mountain goat wearing these.

Great shoes!
I ordered my usual size in spite of the warning that the shoes run small. Perfect fit. I got these because I have a bad knee and unstructured shoes are (paradoxically) easier on it AND I'm not currently hiking on uneven terrain. It's also summer and the ventilation of these shoes is perfect. Basically, they're Vibram soled socks. I like them very much.

Worth it
Great sneaker. Material is a bit itchy and tongue too thick, but it dies what it should.

Love These
I wear this shoe barefoot (for that reason I wish it had a removable footbed). It is comfy and surprisingly supportive. That being said, I wouldn’t wear it on a 5 mile hike! Looks great with jeans or a skirt. I ordered my usual size despite some of the reviews and these are perfect for me since I’m not wearing socks.

I love these.
I really like Merrill’s “barefoot” styles. I have a pair of the Trail Glove 7 and Vapour Glove 6. I like them for different reasons. They both have a roomy toe box, are light weight and comfortable. The Trail Glove 7 have a noticeably thicker sole and are more reinforced around the sides and toes, so better for rougher terrain (like on a trail). That said, I like the appearance of the Vapour Glove 6 more and find them more comfortable for daily use, but you can feel every rock you step on. I have some feet issues; bunions, callouses and some nerve damage. Most shoes hurt one of these things, but overall the Merrell Glove line does not. I love them.

Nice quality but runs a little small
This was my first barefoot-style shoe. I've always been impressed with Merrell quality, and these shoes live up to my expectations. The shoes are well made. The fit for my size 9 1/2 feet is ALMOST perfect. The shoes are just a tad bit short ... not enough to cause any problems with my toes hitting the end--but I definitely can feel the end of the shoe and more disappointing for me, I cannot wear socks. I wore the shoes for my first walk this morning and they were very comfortable. I'm 76 and my walks consist of walking my dog around the neighborhood ... on sidewalks ... for about 2 miles. No problems with breaking the shoes in. I've had them on for the rest of the day and they are very comfy. Next time around I'd probably size up but the size 9 1/2 still works for me. Perhaps if your activity is more energetic than mine (or if socks are a must) you might consider sizing up a half side.
