Best Merrell Zero Drop Running Shoe

07/05/2015 Bretta Riches Best Forefoot Running Shoes 690

In my opinion, the best merrell zero drop running shoe is the Vapor Glove Trail Running Shoe, which is best known for its flexible, thin, yet strong Vibram rubber outsole, making it a great choice for a mix of trail and road running. It is also one of the few barefoot-inspired running shoes that equate to the Vibram FiveFingers.

The Vapor Glove is an excellent barefoot shoe for forefoot running because, like the Vibrams, it is very barefoot-like — you can feel everything under your feet, making you more aware of your foot strike while running.

Merrell Vapor Glove Review for Forefoot Running

Ultimately, the Vapor Glove is the most minimal Merrell shoe and the therapeutic benefit of the Vapor Glove lies in it’s capacity to provide good ground feel.

How Do They Compare to Other Barefoot Running Shoes

The Merrell Vapor Glove feels very similar to the Vivobarefoot Evo and many of the barefoot shoes by Vibram, particularly the KSO’s. The Vapor Glove is also more breathable than the Merrell Pace Glove and they are not bulky like other minimalist trail running shoes from Merrell.

What They Are Good For

The Merrell Vapor Glove’s are good for road running, trail running, Tough Mudder/Spartan races, triathlons, weight-lifting, walking and high agility sports such as tennis.

Merrell Zero Drop Running Shoes
Lot of room for toe splay.

Other notable features of the Merrell Vapor Glove:

  • 0 drop (i.e. no under-heel cushioning), aiding in a better forefoot strike landing
  • Thin, breathable upper mesh, makes you feel like you are wearing a sock
  • They will help you develop strong feet and calves
  • No cushioning, no arch support; supremely barefoot-like
  • Inside lining soft and smooth; can be worn with or without socks
  • Handles very well when wet
  • Flexible and stretchy; can be rolled up into a ball, great for packing
  • No additional underfoot padding –just the 4 mm Vibram outsole
  • Outsole provides good grip, but not overly aggressive traction
  • Wide toe-box, allowing toes to splay and flex

If you don’t like the fit of the Vibram FiveFingers, the smartest choice is the Vapor Glove because they fit comfortable with wiggle-room in the toe-box.

Lastly, the Vapor Glove’s run a bit large, so it would be wise to order a ½ or full size smaller than your normal size.

  680. First off I would like to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
    I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing.
    I’ve had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out.
    I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any
    recommendations or hints? Cheers!
