【Merrell】As if barefoot! A "field-ready" minimal shoe that brings out the natural movement of your foot

With a sensation as if you're progressing on bare feet, feeling the ground beneath. Merrell's field-ready minimal shoe "Trail Glove 8" is just that pair. Now, let's jump out into nature.

The thin and flexible trail model

"Trail Glove 8" is the 8th generation model that brings together the knowledge accumulated by MERRELL's barefoot series since 2011. It is designed to achieve stable movements in various surface environments, including not only paved roads but also uneven terrains with stones and tree roots, gravel paths, and mixed surfaces.

While maintaining a sense of unity with the ground, it achieves a high level of both protection and flexibility required on trails. The midsole is equipped with the lightweight and highly responsive FloatPro foam, ensuring sufficient cushioning without excessively blocking the ground feel, making it possible to maintain comfort even during long activities.

Moreover, the zero-drop design eliminates the height difference between the heel and the toes, supporting a natural posture and smooth weight transfer. It is structured to bring out the foot's natural functions.

The FlexConnect technology allows the sole to bend flexibly according to the bumps of the ground, precisely following the movements of the foot. The outsole features the Vibram TC5+, specially developed by MERRELL, which offers high grip in various surface environments. The upper uses a breathable mesh and TPU material. The burrito tongue structure that wraps around the foot and the rear sling that supports the heel reduce movement during activities, providing a stable fit.

The "Trail Glove 8" offers a new option to step out into nature while retaining the barefoot sensation. Taking that step from paved roads to the field and feeling the ground directly seems to transform the outdoor experience into a more liberating one.
