Merrell vapor glove 4 review.

With the vapor glove 4 it looked like merrell might have hit it out of the park. Unlike other shoes the tongue of trail glove 4 is a continuation of the upper part rather a separate tongue. The added feature of version 4 is the padded collar and tongue. This helps the foot remain in place give you good fitting and cushioning.

Ended up keeping the 3. They do seem more durable but the fit is just wrong. The merrell vapor glove 4 our best buy award winner is like wearing a vibram fivefingers without separated toes and sometimes we prefer this the soft and thin sole provides excellent ground feel and the soft uppers let you lift your toes with hardly any impediment. These 4 s feel amazingly narrower than the predecessor.

Tried the vapor glove 3 and the vapor glove 4. The merrell omni fit lacing system gives a glove like fit. The toebox is noticeably narrower the heel and midfoot. With no midsole cushioning and a short stack height the vapor glove puts your foot right against the ground for maximum responsiveness.

The weak points on the upper were reinforced and it was still properly minimal. I ordered a pair and after a couple weeks use i can t recommend them.
