Merrell Trail Glove 8 Sneaker - Oolong

Merrell Trail Glove 8 is a minimalist trail shoe designed for natural movement and close ground contact. With a 0 mm heel drop and a flexible construction, it aims to deliver a barefoot-like running sensation on trails and firm surfaces. A lightweight FloatPro Foam midsole provides a thin layer of cushioning without masking the feel of the ground, while the Vibram TC5+ outsole offers reliable traction on dry and mildly damp terrains. The upper combines breathable mesh and TPU, featuring a burrito tongue to help create a natural fit. Built on Merrell’s Barefoot 2 construction, the shoe is designed to keep the foot in a natural position. Additional sustainable choices include 100% recycled laces and a breathable mesh lining, along with a mesh footbed cover and a 30% recycled integrated EVA foam insole for lightweight comfort. The overall design is focused on minimalism, mobility and grip for runners seeking a pared‑back, close-to-ground experience.

The upper is crafted from synthetics and textile with a textile lining and an abrasion-proof rubber outsole, combining durability with breathability for warm conditions and high-intensity use.
