After wearing out a pair of an earlier model of theses shoes, I found that I really missed them. I wear these as my "Saturday shoes" to do chores inside and outside, for light exercise and hiking, and with socks for supportive house shoes. They also pack really well - so I take them for gym shoes when I travel and only want to pack one carry on suitcase.

They're back!! The last iteration of vapor gloves didn't work for me but these are prefect. More like the VG3 version. I feel like I should buy a couple extra pairs to save. I bought the dusty pink and the gray/pink and they are good colors. I'd really like more color options.

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!

I LOVE these shoes. Ive worn other barefoot shoes, none have really felt barefoot to me. I feel like a mountain goat wearing these.

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.

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

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 wouldnt 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 Im not wearing socks.

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.

I love these shoes!! The are as close to bare feet as I can get but with support. Rheumatologist said I needed better support.

Really like these and always have! I wanted a new pair because my old ones were getting a bit worn out. I will say that the Oyster/Atoll is more of a beige color not as white as the pictures. I think thats a bit misleading for those who might want a really white shoe. I actually think it will work out because the beige color wont get as dingy as quickly as white.

Bought these shoes to walk the streets of Roma and the Alos in Switzerland! These shoes did not disappoint nor take up much space. I am an avid world traveler and these low profile shoes were just what I needed for style, conformer and function.

I have issues with bunions and hammer toe, so a wide toe box was necessary. This delivered the goods in that department. Also, I'd never tried a barefoot shoe before and found the connection to the ground an amazing ingredient in providing a sense of balance and control. Because of the success of this shoe, I just received my order of the trail shoe that has a bit more cushioning. I like them both for different reasons. I'm not a runner so these are just for everyday use and working out.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
These are more like water shoes than minimalist walking shoes which is what I was looking for. At least for me, the soles are so thin and flexible that they would be very uncomfortable to wear on rocky surfaces. That said, I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they are on smooth surfaces. They also adjust to my narrow feet because they are so flexible.

Since New Balance has discontinued my favorite minimus shoe, I hoped the Vapor would fill the bill. First, the color is markedly different from online. I took the time to compare my phone photo and desktop - the color is much darker in person. Secondly, if you pronate - do NOT buy these. My foot rolled inward and there is no support. Thirdly, they squeak.
Trying to remember why I gave two starsah, yes. If you dont mind a color difference and you dont have high arches, theyre likely fine for you.
If you dont mind squeaks, too.

Haven't worn them outside yet. Feel super comfortable. Glad they are making colourful gloves again. The only reason I gave 4 star is because (a) had to pay shipping cost and (b) my previous pair the elastic shoelace broke rather quickly and they wouldn't replace. So I'm hoping this won't be the case with this pair. Love the colour.

This is my second pair of the barefoot line and I absolutely love them. My first ones are about 9 years old and still holding up. The vapor glove is the most comfortable shoe I have ever had and its way better than the first pair I bought. I really cant recommend this enough.

Ive had my pair for around a month now and Ive worn them everywhere- running, hiking, day-to-day wear, dancing, even at work (Im a baker and Im on my feet all day), and all I can say is that I love them. I feel so connected to the earth and the minimalist style has gotten me back in touch with muscles I hadnt used in a long time. I love the low-key appearance and the sole provides the right amount of traction over loose rocks and dirt on hikes. Longest hike Ive done with these is 7 miles. Good for toughening your feet.

Love this shoe -very comfortable BUT the picture shows a shoe in a lighter pink when it is actually a deep purple. I was very disappointed but I kept the shoe because I love the comfort and look of shoe. I usually wear an 8 but I order Merrell shoes 1/2 size larger. These shoes are great for walks and everyday wear not for hiking on rocky areas because the sole is not substantial enough- but the trail shoe would be.

I love barefoot, this is the one I could wear next to the brand Id been wearing. Love the grip on the ground, arch support and very lightweight. Cant feel the impact of hard surfaces on your feet. Too comfy I could do anything with it. Play, workout, walks
