Customer Reviews Merrell Trail Glove 7

Awesome for a swim run or just running. Really comfy !

I absolutely love these for fit and comfort. Theyre even better than some of the older versions of Merrells barefoot shoes. The problem is with the newer Vibram sole treads After wearing them for 2-3 days a week, averaging about 6 miles a day, over three weeks, the treads are tearing away from the flat portion of the sole. This is walking on concrete or carpeting at work, not scrambling up razor sharp granite skree or anything. With Vibram, Ive come to expect a certain amount of durability so Im pretty disappointed that these will likely only last the summer and be unwearable by fall. If it werent for being so comfortable, I would have returned them right away.

These were absolutely amazing on my accidental 8-mile hike. The fit was true to size (I wear a 9.5 in my New Balance trainers and was a 9.5 in these).

Couldnt use because of my need for more structured shoe- but nice temnies.

I have bought these in the past and I liked the width and fit. These are slightly redisigned and they feel narrower in the toe area.

Love my shoes, great support! Lightweight and cool for summer, I wear without socks

These shoes are very comfortable and supportive. I ordered the same size I usually wear, and they fit well with socks. It was a great walking shoe in Europe. The uneven pavement and cobblestones were not a problem.

Comfortable, and flexible barefoot shoes! I've taken them to gravel roads and trails and I can run comfortably and lightweight, so I like them! In terms of durability, I don't know yet since I've only had them for a few weeks but so far so good.

Bought these just over a month ago..I actually bought another model as well. Love that these have a little more sole for when Im not wanting the real barefoot feeling. Love them so much they are packed for travel .definitely a 1/2 size was a good choice

Fantastic shoes. Light, but has great support and is comfortable on trail run. Wish you had the same shoe for road running

Bought the glove shoe before as a lightweight walking shoe. I bought them this time to use on vacation. I also work in the dental field and they are comfortable to use all day. I do wish the laces had the spring clasp like some of their older models.

The TG7 rapidly became my go to shoe for all aspects of my life from walking the dogs, to mowing the grass to being on my feet the entire throughout work as a bartender. The unique tread on the bottom excels in all aspects. The shoe has just enough between you and the ground to protect the foot from dangerous objects, but thin enough to allow your foot to act as a foot.

Great fitted shoes that I wear everywhere. They are lightweight and comfortable.

Comfortable from day one. Good fit for a narrow foot wide and heel. Would buy again!

Bought this shoe for weightlifting and its perfect

Nice roomy fit around my toes. Very light in weight which is very nice. Would like the heel to be a little higher , for a more secure fit. Great in the gym.

Like many other reviewers, I have worn previous iterations of this shoe and loved them. I decided to give the 7s a try, ordering my new athletic shoe/boot size of a Womens 8. They fit perfectly with a large enough toe box and overall width. I ended up putting in a small gel heel cushion which really helped for comfort when walking/hiking longer distances. The adjustable laces near the heel also help to get the right fit for my narrow heels. They are breathable, and supportive on multiple surfaces (dirt, cobbles, asphalt, sand). Many shoes dont transition well from one to the other, but these do. Will bring with me to an upcoming trip to Europe where cobblestones reign supreme. Otherwise, i just love wearing them at home for walking/light hiking and general daily wear.

Everyone complaining about these compared to the 5 and 6's......you obviously never had the pleasure of wearing a 4th generation model (the e-mesh was particularly wonderful!!). Long time wearers have been begging for a return to this model for years while Merrell (Wolverine?) ignores these requests and continues putting out new models that don't stack up. I don't know if they are just that bad at listening to their customers or are trying to please people who are complaining about true barefoot features of what used to be a barefoot shoe??? Meanwhile, true barefoot wearer continue to wait. If this is the case, a better option would have been to develop a shoe for people who don't understand what a barefoot shoe is supposed to be and leave the rest of us the shoes we grew to love!

Comfortable shoe, not too wide, and cool for the summer months with the ventilation in the material.

Please bring back the support that the trail glove 5 and 6 had. The arch support was perfect, it too much, not too little. Just enough to give you a barefoot supported feel. The 7s were a complete redesign and disappointment to say the least.. why change a good thing

The Womens size guide isn't correct. It says a US9 Womens is a 26cm shoe, which it is not, it is a 25 cm shoe. The mens trail glove 7 in a mens US8 is a 26. (which fits me with a thumb width at the end). The Womens US10 is EXACTLY the same size, width, and length as the mens US8. hope this helps. My foot measures 25.2cm. plus thumb width is the right size. so maybe the shoes are 26.8cm. anyway what I'm trying to say but badly, is that the Womens 9 is supposed to be the same size as the mans 8, but it isn't. the Womens 10 is the same size as the mans 8, and comparing the Womens 10 with all my other shoes, it means the Womens size chart is a whole size out on the smaller side. Hope this makes sense and helps. Apart from that I love these shoes!! great for bunions, and my daughters feet are pain free with these shoes!!

I purchased inserts for arch support which made them perfect everyday shoes. Especially nice for driving. I found them warm so the next time I take a quick trip I will don some footie sox.

After returning 4 pairs of shoes trying to replace my worn out Merrell's, I gave up and bought them again. For the 2nd time I bought this exact style, just in a different color. There will be a 3rd, and a 4th, and however many times I can, until Merrell no longer produces this shoe. Thank you, Merrell.
