Merrell Vapour Glove 4 Women's Trail Running Shoes
The Merrell Vapor Glove 4 Women's Trail Running Shoe is designed for minimalist perfection. It leaves little between you and the ground for maximum freedom and ultimate control.
Cordura® Mesh and TPU Upper
The upper of this shoe is constructed with Cordura® mesh for advanced durability. Cordura® mesh is used in military and performance apparel due to it being hard-wearing and resistant to tears, abrasions and scuffs, making it perfect for the trail and any hazards you might tackle on your adventures. You can be confident that these shoes can tackle whatever the wilderness throws at you. TPU overlays work to increase the shoes strength in key areas for increased durability and stability, meaning that these shoes will stand the test of the trail time and time again. A breathable mesh lining works by allowing vapour, moisture and heat to escape from the shoe inner via the micro perforations, whilst permitting cool air to enter, for happy, dry, cool, fresh feet. This lining also features M Select™ FRESH technology, where antimicrobial agents work to eliminate bacteria and unpleasant odour for feet that feel and smell fresh. The upper is finished with a Hyperlock™ TPU film heel counter to anchor the foot safely in place for maximum stability, and a traditional lace closure system for an adjustable, secure fit.
Merrell Barefoot 2 Construction
Designed to encourage natural running form, hitting the ground with the forefoot rather than the heel, for increased speed and natural impact control - leading to less risk of injury. This minimal trainer allows for better proprioception - perception of one's position in space, meaning faster, more advanced perception and adjustment to variable terrain, for a safer, more stable run.
Vibram® TC5+ Outsole
Designed with Vibram TC5+ these shoes are designed to offer stability in all conditions. With no lugs under the arch, the Vibram outsole allows the foot to flex naturally for greater comfort. The advanced rubber compound provides traction on wet, and dry surfaces in even the most extreme temperatures ensuring you have confidant footing no matter where you chose to explore. The Merrell Barefoot 2 construction enhances proprioception and stability during variable movements; the Merrell Vapor Glove 4 Women's Trail Running Shoes offer a barefoot shape, with a glove-like fit, for a nearly zero ground to foot separation for a minimal look with maximum responsiveness.
