Very lightweight and breathable, ideal for warmer days and outdoor activities. They fit well on the foot and provide great ground feel, which really makes a difference during longer walks. I use them regularly and so far have had zero durability issues.
Merrell Vapor Glove 7 Shoes - Beluga
Barefoot-style sports shoes that imitate walking barefoot, equipped with a Vibram TC5+ outsole that provides grip on various types of surfaces and allows foot-to-ground contact. The upper, laces, mesh, and insole are made from recycled materials.
Textile mesh upper
The shoe upper is made of textile mesh characterised by breathability, durability, and resistance to damage. In addition, the shoes feature a tongue construction that prevents debris from getting inside and an elastic collar that makes them easier to put on and take off.
Soft EVA foam insole, Cleansport NXT
The anatomically contoured insole is made of soft EVA foam, which allows a proper fit to the foot and provides comfort and convenience. The breathable mesh padding further improves air circulation. The shoes use Cleansport NXT technology, which prevents unpleasant odours from developing in the footwear. It uses a system of beneficial bacteria introduced into the fabric structure. When they come into contact with sweat, they activate and produce enzymes that eliminate the bacteria responsible for unpleasant odours. As a result, the footwear stays fresh throughout use, and the bacteria remain on the surface of the material.
Vibram TC5+ outsole
Stable movement in the field is ensured by the cushioned Vibram TC5+ outsole, which together with the properly contoured tread provides very good grip on various types of surfaces.
Classic lacing system
The Vapor Glove 7 model is equipped with strong laces threaded through durable eyelets, allowing the footwear to be properly fitted to the foot.

EVA is a lightweight foam made of plastic characterized by flexibility and durability, as well as good resistance to chemicals and moisture. It is widely used in the production of clothing, footwear and accessories.
Vibram TC5+ is a type of rubber sole characterized by very good traction and grip, both on wet and dry surfaces. In addition, it protects the foot from uneven terrain and cushions any impact.
Cleansport NXT is a technology that uses microorganisms to neutralize odors by naturally breaking down organic matter. Beneficial microorganisms are permanently fused to the fibers of the materials, where, when they come into contact with the organic material (sweat), they activate and produce enzymes that fight the bacteria responsible for the odor. This ecological process ensures a feeling of freshness and comfort even during the most intense activities.

Let me put it this way: these shoes aren't for everyone and that's important to know right away because they're typical barefoot shoes. At first, I felt almost like I was walking completely barefoot, which was a bit strange, but after a few days you get used to it and even start to appreciate it. They're super light, your foot has full freedom, and you really feel the ground, which some people will like and others might not. For me, they work mainly for walks; they're fine on asphalt and hard paths, but in tougher terrain you have to be careful since the sole is thin and you feel everything. A plus is the breathability—your feet don't sweat as much as in classic shoes on warmer days. The build quality is also good: nothing is coming unglued or fraying, though obviously these aren't tough shoes, they're more for comfort and natural movement. If you know what you're looking for and want something light and minimalist, you'll be satisfied.
