Merrell Road Glove barefoot running shoe video review

If have just uploaded my review of the Merrell Road Glove. I really like this shoe and think it has suffered from being in the shadow of the highly successful Trail Glove. If you are mostly running on road this is definitely the better shoe for you of the two.

Apart from having a lighter more breathable upper it also has a very different sole. As you would expect the Road Glove has less distinct lugs for providing grip in slippery conditions. But more importantly the sole is flat whereas the Trail Glove sole has a quite pronounced curve to it. This makes the Road Glove much more stable on a flat surface.

    Have you tried running in the VFF bikila at all? if so…how do these compare to them. The merrells are quite a bit cheaper and better made but the Bikila LS look cooler. im not sure which 1 to get

      Ive worn the Bikila but run very little in them whereas Ive run about 50 miles in the Road Glove. A lot depends on whether you toe length suits the Vibrams. My second toe is too long !
