Merrell Men's Wrapt Waterproof Trail Shoes

So far so good only 40-50 miles but I like the barefoot hiking shoe concept aand comfortable all day long. Appreciate the arch support. I have narrow feet so the towbox is a little wide but it works with socks. Have also gone without and they were comfortable around town. I've received several positive comments on the style. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that I'm getting used to the unique sole. It is pretty cool.

I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for the first time in my life and trying everything. Barefoot shoes were really helping, but also had limitations. These are something in-between the very thin barefoot shoes and traditional hikers like the MOAB. I generally wear a 13W in the MOAB. These didn't come in wide, but with the wide toe box, I decided to give them a try anyway. They are definitely more snug through the midfoot than I'm used to, but the wide toe box makes the fit OK. I ended up on a far more technical "hike" than i was planning, and they were great for finding good foot placement or a toe hold, and showed no signs of scufffs. Overall, I'm very happy with the shoe and the design.

Light weight and very comfortable. It's a bit too early to tell in terms of how long the tread will last, but the quality of rubber feels good and quite firm (not a super soft rubber) so they should last a while.

True to size, very comfortable and light weight. Like there not even there after wearing steel toe boots all day at work .
