Customer Reviews Merrell Barefoot Wonder Glove

Just got these yesterday, and I think they are fantastic! I like a casual shoe that slips on easily for walks around the neighborhood, etc. The mulberry color is a purple-ish pink, bright and easy to coordinate. I usually have a hard time finding a fit between a 9.5 and 10, depending on the fit of the shoe; my feet are just a little wider than a regular 9.5. I went with the 9.5 based on other reviews that said the shoe is a bit roomy, and the fit is spot on. After a day on my feet, I did find the strap (which fastens very easily!) a bit tight. I can leave the strap off and the shoe stays on fine with no slipping. I will be getting another pair without the strap.

Amazingly comfortable right out of the box! I ordered them in Black and in Guava and kept both. The Guava is a bit greener than my monitor showed (I was expecting more of a sunny yellow) but still a really versatile color. I can't help but think that they'd look better with a regular horizontal Mary Jane strap instead of the asymmetrical strap, but they're still really cute. Wish they came in red! And brown too!

These shoes are nice and very comfortable. They are a fine everyday casual shoe.

These shoes are so cute and comfortable! They could be casual and a little dressy.

Lovely color combo and light as a feather but because of the design of the front part of the shoe, it is way too tight for my foot. Will have to return because the next size up is not available. As always, Zappos service is excellent.

Perfect shoes to wear with leggings and a big sweatshirt - not clunky like "regular" athletic shoes but not dressy like ballet flats. Cute!

Sizing is really off. I'm almost always a straight 7.5 or Euro 38; I got the 7.5 in this, which Merrell calls a 38, and my toes were still bumping the front. But otherwise, really comfy and cute! I'm exchanging for an 8.

I wanted to love these. The sole is just too narrow for my foot (although the shoe fit fine, I could feel the ground on the edge of the sole). Sadly, they have to go back. If you have a narrow fit, these are adorable and probably very comfy.

This is the cutest shoe. I bought these to wear to soccer games when it gets warmer.

I own 4 pairs of other Merrell Barefoot shoes, various styles and was very excited to see something more dressy for work. However, because of the styling of this shoe, my regular size was too tight on me. I'm going to try the next size up and hope it works.

These shoes twisted around on my foot and made me walk pigeon-toed! Very disappointed, as they are so cute! I usually love Merrell shoes and have about 4 pairs of Mary Janes and several pairs of hiking shoes, and this is the first time I have had a problem. I have a high instep, high arch and a wide foot, so maybe it is this combination that didn't work.

Love them but wore them on a pretty regular basis - for long days walking - at the mall - sigh. Developed extremely sore knees - and I'm a fit person - Zumba and/or spinning 3-5 times per week, yoga 3 times a week. I think it is because of the "barefoot" concept. Maybe this is obvious to everyone but me - I thought there was enough cushioning in the sole when I first looked at them. Regarding sizing - these run true to size. Other reviewers said they ran small so I ordered an 8 (I usually wear 8.5); returned them and got an 8.5.

I was surprised that this shoe, being a Merrell, had absolutely zero support and is probably terrible (used long-term) for your feet. However, if you just want something to wear periodically around the house, it's fine, or use an insert for more support. Besides no support, it is nice quality and feels pretty much like walking on bare feet. It is a neutral color and would go with many things.

Iguana - cool color! Unfortunately, they were way too large for me. They are the same size 7.5 as a pair of Keens that I have, but they have elastic laces. Adding an orthotic didn't help the fit. Seems to have a nice roomy toe box, which I need. I believe I will really like these, once I get the correct size.

First of all, regular shipping time was fantastic. The shoe is cute (if size 10 can be cute) looks great with jeans, and feels good. I have flat feet and fallen arches but love to walk in bare feet so I don't mind the no arch support. Might have aching legs and feet if I had to work and stand all day. For sure, I will be ordering shoes from Zappos again.

These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. The color is sort of strange and the shoes a bit odd looking, but I always get compliments. I wish they were available in many additional colors (I also have the black and the silver).

Love these shoes. They look like ballet slippers. So cute. They don't have support, which is the whole point. You feel very grounded when you are wearing them. My pilates teacher recommended them.

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had. I have four pairs! If you like to be barefoot, these shoes are your answer!

These shoes were purchased for my 92-year old mother. She loved them so much that I purchased the 2nd pair in beige. The fit was perfect and because of the give in the shoe, it was extremely comfortable for her. Thank you Zappos and Merrell.

Love these shoes! I recently wore them in lieu of my running shoes on a vacation that involved a lot of walking, and my feet felt great!

These shoes are very comfortable, and true to size. I like the leather which makes them more classy then just a sports version. I wear them to work and after.

These are fantastic! I love these shoes. They are lightweight, true to size and cute as all get out. I am partially paralyzed and walk with canes or walker. Being barefoot helps me keep a feeling of contact with the ground. But I cannot go barefoot all the time so these are the next best thing. They are truly gloves for your feet. I get lots of comments and the yellow actually goes with almost any summery outfit. I got them in two sizes and just returned the one that was too big.

These shoes are adorable and very comfortable. Like the name, they do feel like you are barefoot. I walk a lot and expected more support being that they are Merrell's, but I have worn them several times and expected my feet to hurt at the end of the day and they didn't! They are a little narrow at the toe, but when I push my foot into the heel the way they are supposed to sit in the shoe they fit perfectly. They are very cute and I'm happy with my purchase!

Love them. Just what I was looking for!

I love this shoe! I was looking for something that would feel close to barefoot, but without the need to wear those crazy five-finger shoes (which I also love, but don't work for a lot of settings). This is perfect. It's super cute, and I get lots of compliments on it. It's easy to slip on and off. It's light, and it feels really durable.
